PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
 
This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this prospectus and does not contain all of the information that you should consider in making your investment decision. Before investing in our common stock, you should carefully read this entire prospectus, including our financial statements and the related notes included in this prospectus and the information set forth under the headings “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” In this prospectus, all references to “AeroVironment,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to AeroVironment, Inc. and its subsidiaries, unless the context otherwise requires or where indicated.
 
AEROVIRONMENT, INC.
 
Overview
 
We design, develop, produce and support a technologically-advanced portfolio of small unmanned aircraft systems that we supply primarily to organizations within the U.S. Department of Defense, and fast charge systems for electric industrial vehicle batteries that we supply to commercial customers. We derive the majority of our revenue from these two business areas, and we believe that both the small unmanned aircraft systems, or UAS, and fast charge markets are in the early stages of development and have significant growth potential. Additionally, we believe that some of the innovative potential products in our research and development pipeline will emerge as new growth platforms in the future, creating market opportunities. The success we have achieved with our current products stems from our ability to invent and deliver advanced solutions, utilizing our proprietary technologies, that help our government and commercial customers operate more effectively and efficiently. Our core technological capabilities, developed through 35 years of innovation, include lightweight aerostructures and electric propulsion systems, efficient electric energy systems and storage, high-density energy packaging, miniaturization, controls integration and systems engineering optimization. We helped to pioneer and are now a leader in the markets for small UAS and fast charge systems, and we have experienced a compound annual revenue growth rate of 71% for the three-year period ended April 30, 2006.
 
Our small UAS are well positioned to support the transformational strategy of the U.S. Department of Defense, or DoD, the purpose of which is to convert the military into a smaller, more agile force that operates through a network of observation, communication and precision targeting technologies, and its efforts to prosecute the Global War on Terror, which have increased the need for real-time, visual information in new operational environments. Our small UAS, including Raven, Dragon Eye, Swift, Wasp and Puma, are designed to provide valuable intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, or ISR, directly to the small tactical unit, or individual “warfighter” level, thereby increasing flexibility in mission planning and execution. Our small unmanned aircraft wirelessly transmit critical live video and other information generated by their payload of electro-optical or infrared sensors, enabling the operator to view and capture images, during the day or at night, on a hand-held ground control unit. We also provide training by our highly-skilled instructors, who typically have extensive military experience, and continuous refurbishment and repair services for our products.
 
We designed all of our small UAS to be man-portable, launchable by one person and operated through a hand-held control unit. Our small UAS are electrically powered, configured to carry electro-optical or infrared sensors, provide real-time situational awareness and intelligence, fly quietly at speeds reaching 50 miles per hour and travel up to 20 miles from their launch location on a modular, replaceable battery pack. These characteristics make them well suited for reconnaissance, surveillance, target acquisition and battle damage assessment operations. We believe that our small UAS capabilities, combined with our high level of service, logistical support and training, have enabled us to win both competitively bid U.S. military small UAS programs of record as of July 29, 2006.
 
Our PosiCharge products and services are designed to improve productivity and safety for operators of electric industrial vehicles, such as forklifts and airport ground support equipment, by

improving battery and fleet management. In multi-shift fleet operations, traditional charging systems require users to exchange vehicle batteries throughout the day because these batteries discharge their energy through vehicle usage and there is insufficient vehicle downtime to recharge them during a shift. Changing these batteries, which can weigh as much as 3,500 pounds, requires labor time and dedicated battery changing rooms that consume valuable floor space. PosiCharge utilizes our proprietary technology in energy and battery management to recharge electric industrial vehicle batteries rapidly during regularly scheduled breaks or other times the vehicle is not in service, eliminating the costly and time-consuming process of removing and replacing the battery. PosiCharge is able to recharge a typical electric industrial vehicle battery and return it to service up to 16 times faster than conventional charging methods, while at the same time managing current, voltage and temperature, which can improve battery performance. To date, PosiCharge fast charge systems have been purchased and installed by a diverse group of customers that includes Ford Motor Company, SYSCO Corporation, Southwest Airlines and IKEA. As of July 29, 2006, our PosiCharge fast charge systems serviced over 5,000 electric industrial vehicles. We estimate that approximately 1.0 million electric industrial vehicles currently operate in North America, including over 100,000 new vehicles that we estimate were shipped in 2005.
 
Research and development activities are integral to our business, and we follow a disciplined approach to investing our resources to create new technologies and solutions. These activities are funded both externally by customers and internally. A fundamental part of this approach is a well-defined screening process that helps business managers identify commercial opportunities that support current or desired technological capabilities. Our UAS research and development activities focus specifically on creating capabilities that support our existing small UAS product portfolio as well as new UAS platforms. Our Energy Technology Center also engages in research and development in support of our existing product lines as well as to develop solutions for other markets such as renewable energy.
 
For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, we generated revenue of $139.4 million, income from operations of $16.3 million and net income of $11.4 million. For the three months ended July 29, 2006, we generated revenue of $31.6 million, income from operations of $2.0 million and net income of $1.4 million. As of July 29, 2006, we had funded backlog of $79.8 million and estimated unfunded backlog of $457.3 million.
 
Our Strategy
 
We intend to grow our business by maintaining leadership in the growing markets for small UAS and fast charge systems and by creating new products that enable us to enter and lead new markets. Key components of this strategy include the following:
 
  •  Expand our current solutions to existing and new customers.  Our small UAS and PosiCharge products and services are leaders in their respective North American markets. We intend to increase the penetration of our small UAS products within the U.S. military, the militaries of allied nations and non-military U.S. customers. We believe that the increased use of our small UAS in the U.S. military will be a catalyst for increased demand by allied countries, and that our efforts to pursue new applications will help to create non-military opportunities. We similarly intend to increase the penetration of PosiCharge to existing and new customers in North America and globally. Early adopters of PosiCharge are now deploying it in additional facilities throughout their enterprises while its adoption is increasing among new customers and new industry segments, such as food and logistics.
 
  •  Deliver innovative solutions.  Innovation is the primary driver of our growth. We plan to continue research and development efforts to enable us to satisfy our customers through better, more capable products and services, both in response to and in anticipation of their needs. We believe that by continuing to invest in research and development, we will continue

  to deliver innovative, new products that address market needs within and outside of our current target markets, enabling us to create new opportunities for growth.
 
  •  Foster our entrepreneurial culture and continue to attract, develop and retain highly-skilled personnel.  We have created a corporate culture that encourages innovation and an entrepreneurial spirit, which helps to attract highly-skilled professionals. We intend to nurture this culture to encourage the development of the innovative, highly technical solutions that give us our competitive advantage. A core component of our culture is the demonstration of trust and integrity in all of our interactions, contributing to a positive work environment and engendering trust among our customers.
 
  •  Preserve our agility and flexibility.  We are able to respond rapidly to evolving markets and deliver new products and system capabilities quickly, efficiently and affordably. We believe that this ability helps us to strengthen our relationships with customers. We intend to maintain our agility and flexibility, which we believe to be important sources of differentiation when we compete against larger and better-funded competitors.
 
Our History
 
Our company was founded by Dr. Paul B. MacCready, the Chairman of our board of directors and an internationally renowned innovator who was instrumental in creating our culture.

RISK FACTORS
 
Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the following risk factors, as well as the other information in this prospectus, before deciding whether to invest in our common stock. If any of the following risks actually materializes, then our business, financial condition and results of operations would suffer. The trading price of our common stock could decline as a result of any of these risks, and you might lose all or part of your investment in our common stock. You should read the section entitled “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” immediately following these risk factors for a discussion of what types of statements are forward-looking statements, as well as the significance of such statements in the context of this prospectus.
 
Risks Related to Our Business
 
We rely heavily on sales to the U.S. government, particularly to agencies of the Department of Defense.
 
Historically, a significant portion of our total sales and substantially all of our small UAS sales have been to the U.S. government and its agencies. Sales to the U.S. government, either as a prime contractor or subcontractor, represented approximately 82% of our revenue for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006. The U.S. Department of Defense, or DoD, our principal U.S. government customer, accounted for approximately 77% of our revenue for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006. We believe that the success and growth of our business for the foreseeable future will continue to depend on our ability to win government contracts, in particular from the DoD. Many of our government customers are subject to budgetary constraints and our continued performance under these contracts, or award of additional contracts from these agencies, could be jeopardized by spending reductions or budget cutbacks at these agencies. The funding of U.S. government programs is uncertain and dependent on continued congressional appropriations and administrative allotment of funds based on an annual budgeting process. We cannot assure you that current levels of congressional funding for our products and services will continue. A significant decline in government expenditures generally, or with respect to programs for which we provide products, could adversely affect our business and prospects. Our operating results may also be negatively impacted by other developments that affect these government programs generally, including the following:
 
  •  changes in government programs that are related to our products and services;
 
  •  adoption of new laws or regulations relating to government contracting or changes to existing laws or regulations;
 
  •  changes in political or public support for security and defense programs;
 
  •  delays or changes in the government appropriations process;
 
  •  uncertainties associated with the war on terror and other geo-political matters; and
 
  •  delays in the payment of our invoices by government payment offices.
 
These developments and other factors could cause governmental agencies to reduce their purchases under existing contracts, to exercise their rights to terminate contracts at-will or to abstain from renewing contracts, any of which would cause our revenue to decline and could otherwise harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
Military transformation and operational levels may affect future procurement priorities and existing programs, which could limit demand for our unmanned aircraft systems.
 
Following the end of the Cold War, the U.S. military began a transformation of its operational concepts, organizational structure and technologies in an effort to improve warfighting capabilities. The resulting shift in procurement priorities toward achieving these capabilities, together with the

current high level of operational activity in Afghanistan and Iraq, have led to an increase in demand for our small UAS. We cannot predict whether current or future changes in priorities due to defense transformation or continuation of the current nature and magnitude of operations in Afghanistan and Iraq will afford new opportunities for our small UAS business in terms of existing, additional or replacement programs. Furthermore, we cannot predict whether or to what extent this defense transformation or current operational levels will continue. If defense transformation or operations in Afghanistan and Iraq cease or slow down, then our business, financial condition and results of operations could be harmed.
 
We operate in evolving markets, which makes it difficult to evaluate our business and future prospects.
 
Unmanned aircraft systems, fast charge systems and other energy technologies that we offer are sold in new and rapidly evolving markets. Accordingly, our business and future prospects are difficult to evaluate. We cannot accurately predict the extent to which demand for our products will increase, if at all. Prior to investing, you should consider the challenges, risks and uncertainties frequently encountered by companies in rapidly evolving markets. These challenges include our ability to do the following:
 
  •  generate sufficient revenue to maintain profitability;
 
  •  acquire and maintain market share;
 
  •  manage growth in our operations;
 
  •  develop and renew contracts;
 
  •  attract and retain additional engineers and other highly-qualified personnel;
 
  •  successfully develop and commercially market new products;
 
  •  adapt to new or changing policies and spending priorities of governments and government agencies; and
 
  •  access additional capital when required and on reasonable terms.
 
If we fail to address these and other challenges, risks and uncertainties successfully, our business, results of operations and financial condition would be materially harmed.
 
We face competition from other firms, many of which have substantially greater resources.
 
The defense industry is highly competitive and generally characterized by intense competition to win contracts. We compete with many other firms, ranging from smaller specialized and medium-sized firms such as AAI Corporation, a subsidiary of United Industrial Corporation, Advanced Ceramics Research, Inc., Applied Research Associates, Inc. and Elbit Systems Ltd., to large diversified firms such as L-3 Communications Holdings Inc., Lockheed Martin Corporation and Northrop Grumman Corporation, many of which have substantially greater financial, management, research and marketing resources than we have. The primary direct competitors to our PosiCharge business are other fast charge suppliers, including Aker Wade Power Technologies LLC, Minit-Charger, a subsidiary of Edison International, and PowerDesigners, LLC, as well as industrial battery manufacturers who distribute fast charge systems from these suppliers. Our competitors may be able to provide customers with different or greater capabilities or benefits than we can provide in areas such as technical qualifications, past contract performance, geographic presence, price and the availability of key professional personnel, including those with security clearances. Furthermore, many of our competitors may be able to utilize their substantially greater resources and economies of scale to develop competing products and technologies, divert sales away from us by winning broader contracts or hire away our employees by offering more lucrative compensation packages. In the event that the market for unmanned aircraft systems, or UAS, expands, we expect that competition will intensify as additional competitors enter

the market and current competitors expand their product lines. In order to secure contracts successfully when competing with larger, well-financed companies, we may be forced to agree to contractual terms that provide for lower aggregate payments to us over the life of the contract, which could adversely affect our margins. In addition, larger diversified competitors serving as prime contractors may be able to supply underlying products and services from affiliated entities, which would prevent us from competing for subcontracting opportunities on these contracts. Our failure to compete effectively with respect to any of these or other factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition or operating results.
 
If the unmanned aircraft systems and fast charge systems markets do not experience significant growth, if we cannot expand our customer base or if our products do not achieve broad acceptance, then we will not be able to achieve our anticipated level of growth.
 
For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, unmanned aircraft systems and fast charge systems accounted for 80% and 14% of our total revenue, respectively. We cannot accurately predict the future growth rates or sizes of these markets. Demand for these types of systems may not increase, or may decrease, either generally or in specific markets, for particular types of products or during particular time periods. Moreover, there are only a limited number of major programs under which the U.S. military, our primary customer, is currently funding the development or purchase of unmanned aircraft systems. Although we are seeking to expand our customer base to include foreign governments, domestic non-military agencies and commercial customers, we cannot assure you that our efforts will be successful. The expansion of the unmanned aircraft systems and fast charge systems markets in general, and the market for our products in particular, depends on a number of factors, including the following:
 
  •  customer satisfaction with these types of systems as solutions;
 
  •  the cost, performance and reliability of our products and products offered by our competitors;
 
  •  customer perceptions regarding the effectiveness and value of these types of systems;
 
  •  limitations on our ability to market our small UAS products outside the United States due to U.S. government regulations;
 
  •  obtaining timely regulatory approvals, including, with respect to our small UAS business, access to airspace and wireless spectrum; and
 
  •  marketing efforts and publicity regarding these types of systems.
 
Even if unmanned aircraft systems and fast charge systems gain wide market acceptance, our products may not adequately address market requirements and may not continue to gain market acceptance. If these types of systems generally, or our products specifically, do not gain wide market acceptance, then we may not be able to achieve our anticipated level of growth and our revenue and results of operations would suffer.
 
If critical components of our products that we currently purchase from a small number of suppliers or raw materials used to manufacture our products become scarce or unavailable, then we may incur delays in manufacturing and delivery of our products, which could damage our business.
 
We obtain hardware components and various subsystems from a limited group of suppliers. We do not have long-term agreements with any of these suppliers that obligate them to continue to sell components or products to us. For example, we currently obtain all the global positioning systems used in our unmanned aircraft systems from one of only a small number of manufacturers of such systems, and obtain all the transmitters and receivers used in our unmanned aircraft systems from one of our competitors. Our reliance on these suppliers involves significant risks and uncertainties,

Table of Contents

including whether our suppliers will provide an adequate supply of required components of sufficient quality, will increase prices for the components and will perform their obligations on a timely basis.
 
In addition, certain raw materials and components used in the manufacture of our products are periodically subject to supply shortages, and our business is subject to the risk of price increases and periodic delays in delivery. For example, the airframes for our small UAS are made from certain nylon composites, which experienced restrictions in available supply in 2005 due to increased worldwide demand. Similarly, the market for electronic components is subject to cyclical reductions in supply. If we are unable to obtain components from third-party suppliers in the quantities and of the quality that we require, on a timely basis and at acceptable prices, then we may not be able to deliver our products on a timely or cost-effective basis to our customers, which could cause customers to terminate their contracts with us, increase our costs and seriously harm our business, results of operations and financial condition. Moreover, if any of our suppliers become financially unstable, then we may have to find new suppliers. It may take several months to locate alternative suppliers, if required, or to redesign our products to accommodate components from different suppliers. We may experience significant delays in manufacturing and shipping our products to customers and incur additional development, manufacturing and other costs to establish alternative sources of supply if we lose any of these sources or are required to redesign our products. We cannot predict if we will be able to obtain replacement components within the time frames that we require at an affordable cost, if at all.
 
Any efforts to expand our product offerings beyond our current markets may not succeed, which could negatively impact our operating results.
 
We have focused on selling our small unmanned aircraft systems to the U.S. military and our fast charge systems to large industrial electric vehicle fleet operators primarily in North America. We plan, however, to seek to expand our unmanned aircraft systems sales into other government and commercial markets and our fast charge systems sales into international markets. Efforts to expand our product offerings beyond the markets that we currently serve may divert management resources from existing operations and require us to commit significant financial resources to unproven businesses that may not generate additional sales, either of which could significantly impair our operating results.
 
Our failure to obtain necessary regulatory approvals from the Federal Aviation Administration may prevent us from expanding the sales of our small UAS to non-military customers in the United States and require us to incur additional costs in the testing of our products.
 
Regulations of the Federal Aviation Administration, or FAA, currently require that small UAS comply with the rules for radio-controlled hobby aircraft. These rules require small UAS to maintain flight altitude within 400 feet above the ground, and operators to maintain line of sight with the aircraft at all times it is in flight. These regulations prevent or inhibit the use of our small UAS in certain civil and commercial applications. The FAA is in the process of drafting updated regulations specifically for small UAS operations, but we cannot assure you that these regulations will allow the use of our small UAS by potential civilian and commercial customers. If the FAA does not modify its regulations to enable the civilian and commercial use of small UAS, we may not be able to expand our sales of UAS beyond our military customers, which could harm our business prospects.
 
Recently, the Defense Contract Management Agency, or DCMA, informed us that, under the terms of our DoD contracts, the government parties with whom we are contracting are required to obtain a certificate of authorization for flight tests of our small UAS outside of military installations. If our DoD customers are unable to obtain such a certificate, we may not be able to perform our flight tests without incurring the additional costs of transporting our small UAS products to military installations, which could impair our operating results.

The markets in which we compete are characterized by rapid technological change, which requires us to develop new products and product enhancements, and could render our existing products obsolete.
 
Continuing technological changes in the market for our products could make our products less competitive or obsolete, either generally or for particular applications. Our future success will depend upon our ability to develop and introduce a variety of new capabilities and enhancements to our existing product offerings, as well as introduce a variety of new product offerings, to address the changing needs of the markets in which we offer our products. Delays in introducing new products and enhancements, the failure to choose correctly among technical alternatives or the failure to offer innovative products or enhancements at competitive prices may cause existing and potential customers to purchase our competitors’ products.
 
If we are unable to devote adequate resources to develop new products or cannot otherwise successfully develop new products or enhancements that meet customer requirements on a timely basis, our products could lose market share, our revenue and profits could decline, and we could experience operating losses.
 
We expect to incur substantial research and development costs and devote significant resources to identifying and commercializing new products, which could significantly reduce our profitability and may never result in revenue to us.
 
Our future growth depends on penetrating new markets, adapting existing products to new applications, and introducing new products that achieve market acceptance. We plan to incur substantial research and development costs as part of our efforts to design, develop and commercialize new products and enhance existing products. We spent $16.1 million, or 12% of our revenue, in fiscal year 2006 on research and development activities and expect to continue to spend significant funds on research and development in the future. We expect to utilize a portion of the proceeds of this offering and cash flow from operations to fund our research and development, although we may also utilize borrowings or other external funding in the future. Because we account for research and development as an operating expense, these expenditures will adversely affect our earnings in the future. Further, our research and development program may not produce successful results, and our new products may not achieve market acceptance, create additional revenue or become profitable, which could materially harm our business, prospects, financial results and liquidity.
 
If we are unable to manage our growth, our business could be adversely affected.
 
Our headcount and operations have grown rapidly. This rapid growth has placed, and will continue to place, a significant strain on our management and our administrative, operational and financial infrastructure. From January 2004 through July 2006, we nearly doubled the number of our employees. We anticipate further growth of headcount and facilities will be required to address increases in our product offerings and the geographic scope of our customer base. Our success will depend in part upon the ability of our senior management to manage this growth effectively. To do so, we must continue to hire, train, manage and integrate a significant number of qualified managers and engineers. If our new employees perform poorly, or if we are unsuccessful in hiring, training, managing and integrating these new employees, or retaining these or our existing employees, then our business may suffer.
 
For us to continue our growth, we must continue to improve our operational, financial and management information systems. If we are unable to manage our growth while maintaining our quality of service, or if new systems that we implement to assist in managing our growth do not produce the expected benefits, then our business, prospects, financial condition or operating results could be adversely affected.

Our earnings and profit margins may decrease based on the mix of our contracts and programs and other factors related to our contracts.
 
In general, we perform our production work under fixed-price contracts and our repair and development work under cost-plus-fee contracts. We typically experience lower profit margins under cost-plus-fee contracts than under fixed-price contracts, though fixed-price contracts have higher risks. In general, if the volume of services we perform under cost-plus-fee contracts increases relative to the volume of services we perform under fixed-price contracts, we expect that our operating margin will suffer. In addition, our earnings and margins may decrease depending on the costs we incur in contract performance, our achievement of other contract performance objectives and the stage of our performance at which our right to receive fees, particularly under incentive and award fee contracts, is finally determined.
 
Our senior management and key employees are important to our customer relationships and overall business.
 
We believe that our success depends in part on the continued contributions of our senior management and key employees. We rely on our executive officers, senior management and key employees to generate business and execute programs successfully. In addition, the relationships and reputation that members of our management team and key employees have established and maintain with government defense personnel contribute to our ability to maintain good customer relations and to identify new business opportunities. We do not have employment agreements with any of our executive officers or key employees, and these individuals could terminate their employment with us at any time. The loss of any of our executive officers, members of our senior management team or key employees could significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our business objectives and could materially harm our business and customer relationships and impair our ability to identify and secure new contracts and otherwise manage our business.
 
We must recruit and retain highly-skilled employees to succeed in our competitive business.
 
We depend on our ability to recruit and retain employees who have advanced engineering and technical services skills and who work well with our customers. These employees are in great demand and are likely to remain a limited resource in the foreseeable future. If we are unable to recruit and retain a sufficient number of these employees, then our ability to maintain our competitiveness and grow our business could be negatively affected. In addition, because of the highly technical nature of our products, the loss of any significant number of our existing engineering personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results. Moreover, some of our U.S. government contracts contain provisions requiring us to staff a program with certain personnel the customer considers key to our successful performance under the contract. In the event we are unable to provide these key personnel or acceptable substitutes, the customer may terminate the contract.
 
Our business may be dependent upon our employees obtaining and maintaining required security clearances.
 
Certain of our U.S. government contracts require our employees to maintain various levels of security clearances, and we are required to maintain certain facility security clearances complying with DoD requirements. The DoD has strict security clearance requirements for personnel who work on classified programs. Obtaining and maintaining security clearances for employees involves a lengthy process, and it is difficult to identify, recruit and retain employees who already hold security clearances. If our employees are unable to obtain security clearances in a timely manner, or at all, or if our employees who hold security clearances are unable to maintain the clearances or terminate employment with us, then a customer requiring classified work could terminate the contract or decide not to renew it upon its expiration. In addition, we expect that many of the contracts on which we will bid will require us to demonstrate our ability to obtain facility security clearances and employ personnel with specified types of security clearances. To the extent we are not able to obtain facility


12


Table of Contents

security clearances or engage employees with the required security clearances for a particular contract, we may not be able to bid on or win new contracts, or effectively rebid on expiring contracts.
 
Cost overruns on our contracts could subject us to losses, decrease our operating margins and adversely affect our future business.
 
Under fixed-price contracts, we perform services under a contract at a stipulated price. Fixed-price contracts represented approximately 69% of our revenue for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006. If we fail to anticipate technical problems, estimate costs accurately or control costs during our performance of fixed-price contracts, then we may incur losses on these contracts because we absorb any costs in excess of the fixed price. Under cost-plus-fee contracts, which are subject to a contract ceiling amount, we are reimbursed for allowable costs and paid a fee, which may be fixed or performance based. However, if costs exceed the contract ceiling or are not allowable under the provisions of the contract or applicable regulations, then we may not be able to obtain reimbursement for all such costs. Under time and materials contracts, we are paid for labor at negotiated hourly billing rates and for certain expenses. Under each type of contract, if we are unable to control the costs we incur in performing under the contract, then our financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. Cost overruns also may adversely affect our ability to sustain existing programs and obtain future contract awards.
 
Our products are complex and could have unknown defects or errors, which may give rise to claims against us, diminish our brand or divert our resources from other purposes.
 
Our unmanned aircraft systems rely on complex avionics, sensors, user-friendly interfaces and tightly-integrated, electromechanical designs to accomplish their missions, and our fast charge systems and energy systems often rely upon the application of intellectual property for which there may have been little or no prior commercial application. Despite testing, our products have contained defects and errors and may in the future contain defects, errors or performance problems when first introduced, when new versions or enhancements are released, or even after these products have been used by our customers for a period of time. These problems could result in expensive and time-consuming design modifications or warranty charges, delays in the introduction of new products or enhancements, significant increases in our service and maintenance costs, exposure to liability for damages, damaged customer relationships and harm to our reputation, any of which could materially harm our results of operations and ability to achieve market acceptance. In addition, increased development and warranty costs could be substantial and could reduce our operating margins.
 
The existence of any defects, errors, or failures in our products or the misuse of our products could also lead to product liability claims or lawsuits against us. A defect, error or failure in one of our unmanned aircraft systems could result in injury, death or property damage and significantly damage our reputation and support for unmanned aircraft systems in general. While our fast charge systems include certain safety mechanisms, these systems can deliver up to 600 amps of current in their application, and the failure, malfunction or misuse of these systems could result in injury or death. Although we maintain insurance policies, we cannot assure you that this insurance will be adequate to protect us from all material judgments and expenses related to potential future claims or that these levels of insurance will be available in the future at economical prices or at all. A successful product liability claim could result in substantial cost to us. Even if we are fully insured as it relates to a claim, the claim could nevertheless diminish our brand and divert management’s attention and resources, which could have a negative impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our quarterly operating results may vary widely.
 
Our quarterly revenue, cash flow and operating results have and may continue to fluctuate significantly in the future due to a number of factors, including the following:
 
  •  fluctuations in revenue derived from government contracts, including cost-plus-fee contracts and contracts with a performance-based fee structure;
 
  •  the size and timing of orders from military and other governmental agencies, including increased purchase requests from government customers for equipment and materials in connection with the U.S. government’s fiscal year end, which may affect our second quarter operating results;
 
  •  the mix of products that we sell in the period;
 
  •  seasonal fluctuations in customer demand for some of our products or services;
 
  •  unanticipated costs incurred in the introduction of new products;
 
  •  fluctuations in the adoption of our products in new markets;
 
  •  changes in the level of tax credits available for research and development spending, including whether the federal research and development tax credit which expired in December 2005 will be reinstated;
 
  •  cancellations, delays or contract amendments by our governmental agency customers; and
 
  •  changes in policy or budgetary measures that adversely affect our governmental agency customers.
 
Changes in the volume of products and services provided under existing contracts and the number of contracts commenced, completed or terminated during any quarter may cause significant variations in our cash flow from operations because a relatively large amount of our expenses are fixed. We incur significant operating expenses during the start-up and early stages of large contracts and typically do not receive corresponding payments in that same quarter. We may also incur significant or unanticipated expenses when contracts expire or are terminated or are not renewed. In addition, payments due to us from government agencies may be delayed due to billing cycles or as a result of failures of governmental budgets to gain congressional and presidential administration approval in a timely manner.
 
Shortfalls in available external research and development funding could adversely affect us.
 
We depend on our research and development activities to develop the core technologies used in our small UAS and PosiCharge products and for the development of our future products. A portion of our research and development activities depends on funding by commercial companies and the U.S. government. U.S. government and commercial spending levels can be impacted by a number of variables, including general economic conditions, specific companies’ financial performance and competition for U.S. government funding with other U.S. government-sponsored programs in the budget formulation and appropriation processes. Moreover, the U.S., state and local governments provide energy rebates and incentives to commercial companies, which directly impact the amount of research and development that companies appropriate for energy systems. To the extent that these energy rebates and incentives are reduced or eliminated, company funding for research and development could be reduced. Any reductions in available research and development funding could harm our business, financial condition and operating results.
 
Volatility and cyclicality in the market for electric industrial vehicles could adversely affect us.
 
Our PosiCharge fast charge systems, which accounted for 14% of our revenue during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, are purchased primarily by operators of fleets of electric industrial vehicles,


14


Table of Contents

such as forklift trucks and airport ground support equipment. Consequently, our ability to remain profitable depends in part on the varying conditions in the market for electric industrial vehicles. This market is subject to volatility as it moves in response to cycles in the overall business environment and is also particularly sensitive to the industrial, food and beverage, retail and air travel sectors, which generate a significant portion of the demand for such vehicles. Sales of electric industrial vehicles have historically been cyclical, with demand affected by such economic factors as industrial production, construction levels, demand for consumer and durable goods, interest rates and fuel costs. A significant decline in demand for electric industrial vehicles could adversely affect our revenue and prospects, which would harm our business, financial condition and operating results.
 
Our fast charge business is dependent upon our relationships with battery dealers and other third parties with whom we do not have exclusive arrangements.
 
To remain competitive in the market for fast charge systems, we must maintain our access to potential customers and ensure that the service needs of our customers are met adequately. In many cases, we rely on battery dealers for access to potential PosiCharge customers. Currently, one of our fast charge system competitors is working with a battery manufacturer to sell fast charge systems and batteries together. Cooperative agreements between our competitors and battery manufacturers could restrict our access to battery dealers and potential PosiCharge customers, adversely affecting our revenue and prospects. Additionally, we rely on outside service providers to perform post-sale services for our PosiCharge customers. If these service providers fail to perform these services as required or discontinue their business with us, then we could lose customers to competitors, which would harm our business, financial condition and operating results.
 
We work in international locations where there are high security risks, which could result in harm to our employees and contractors or substantial costs.
 
Some of our services are performed in high-risk locations, such as Iraq and Afghanistan, where the country or location is suffering from political, social or economic issues, or war or civil unrest. In those locations where we have employees or operations, we may incur substantial costs to maintain the safety of our personnel. Despite these precautions, the safety of our personnel in these locations may continue to be at risk, and we may in the future suffer the loss of employees and contractors, which could harm our business and operating results.
 
We may not be able to obtain capital when desired on favorable terms, if at all, or without dilution to our stockholders.
 
We operate in emerging and rapidly evolving markets, which makes our prospects difficult to evaluate. It is possible that we may not generate sufficient cash flow from operations or otherwise have the capital resources to meet our future capital needs. If this occurs, then we may need additional financing to pursue our business strategies, including to:
 
  •  hire additional engineers and other personnel;
 
  •  develop new or enhance existing products;
 
  •  enhance our operating infrastructure;
 
  •  fund working capital requirements;
 
  •  acquire complementary businesses or technologies; or
 
  •  otherwise respond to competitive pressures.
 
If we raise additional funds through the issuance of equity or convertible debt securities, the percentage ownership of our stockholders could be significantly diluted, and these newly-issued securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing stockholders, including those acquiring shares in this offering. We cannot assure you that additional financing will be available


15


Table of Contents

on terms favorable to us, or at all. Our existing line of credit contains, and future debt financing may contain, covenants or other provisions that limit our operational or financial flexibility. In addition, certain of our customers require that we obtain letters of credit to support our obligations under some of our contracts. Our existing letter-of-credit provider requires that we hold cash in an amount equal to the amount of our outstanding letters of credit as collateral. Continued access to letters of credit may be important to our ability to regain and win contracts in the future. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, if and when needed, then our ability to fund our operations, take advantage of unanticipated opportunities, develop or enhance our products, or otherwise respond to competitive pressures would be significantly limited.
 
Our international business poses potentially greater risks than our domestic business.
 
We derived an average of 3.7% of our revenue from international sales during the three fiscal years ended April 30, 2006. We expect to derive an increasing portion of our revenue from international sales. Our international revenue and operations are subject to a number of material risks, including the following:
 
  •  the unavailability of, or difficulties in obtaining any, necessary governmental authorizations for the export of our UAS products to certain foreign jurisdictions;
 
  •  changes in regulatory requirements that may adversely affect our ability to sell certain products or repatriate profits to the United States;
 
  •  the complexity and necessity of using foreign representatives and consultants;
 
  •  difficulties in enforcing agreements and collecting receivables through foreign legal systems and other relevant legal issues, including fewer legal protections for intellectual property;
 
  •  potential fluctuations in foreign economies and in the value of foreign currencies and interest rates;
 
  •  potential preferences by prospective customers to purchase from local (non-U.S.) sources;
 
  •  general economic and political conditions in the markets in which we operate;
 
  •  laws or regulations relating to non-U.S. military contracts that favor purchases from non-U.S. manufacturers over U.S. manufacturers;
 
  •  the imposition of tariffs, embargoes, export controls and other trade restrictions; and
 
  •  different and changing legal and regulatory requirements in the jurisdictions in which we currently operate or may operate in the future.
 
Negative developments in any of these areas in one or more countries could result in a reduction in demand for our products, the cancellation or delay of orders already placed, threats to our intellectual property, difficulty in collecting receivables and a higher cost of doing business, any of which could negatively impact our business, financial condition or results of operations. Moreover, our sales, including sales to customers outside the United States, are denominated in dollars, and downward fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar may make our products more expensive than other products, which could harm our business.

Potential future acquisitions could be difficult to integrate, divert the attention of key personnel, disrupt our business, dilute stockholder value and impair our financial results.
 
We intend to consider strategic acquisitions that would add to our customer base, technological capabilities or system offerings. Acquisitions involve numerous risks, any of which could harm our business, including the following:
 
  •  difficulties in integrating the operations, technologies, products, existing contracts, accounting and personnel of the target company and realizing the anticipated synergies of the combined businesses;
 
  •  difficulties in supporting and transitioning customers, if any, of the target company;
 
  •  diversion of financial and management resources from existing operations;
 
  •  the price we pay or other resources that we devote may exceed the value we realize, or the value we could have realized if we had allocated the purchase price or other resources to another opportunity;
 
  •  risks of entering new markets in which we have limited or no experience;
 
  •  potential loss of key employees, customers and strategic alliances from either our current business or the target company’s business;
 
  •  assumption of unanticipated problems or latent liabilities, such as problems with the quality of the target company’s products; and
 
  •  inability to generate sufficient revenue to offset acquisition costs.
 
Acquisitions also frequently result in the recording of goodwill and other intangible assets which are subject to potential impairments in the future that could harm our financial results. In addition, if we finance acquisitions by issuing equity, or securities convertible into equity, then our existing stockholders may be diluted, which could lower the market price of our common stock. If we finance acquisitions through debt, then such future debt financing may contain covenants or other provisions that limit our operational or financial flexibility. As a result, if we fail to properly evaluate acquisitions or investments, then we may not achieve the anticipated benefits of any such acquisitions, and we may incur costs in excess of what we anticipate. The failure to successfully evaluate and execute acquisitions or investments or otherwise adequately address these risks could materially harm our business and financial results.
 
Environmental laws and regulations and unforeseen costs could impact our future earnings.
 
The manufacture and sale of our products in certain states and countries may subject us to environmental and other regulations. For example, we obtain a significant number of our electronics components from companies located in East Asia, where environmental rules may be less stringent than in the United States. Over time, the countries where these companies are located may adopt more stringent environmental regulations, resulting in an increase in our manufacturing costs. Furthermore, certain environmental laws, including the U.S. Comprehensive, Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, impose strict, joint and several liability on current and previous owners or operators of real property for the cost of removal or remediation of hazardous substances and impose liability for damages to natural resources. These laws often impose liability even if the owner or operator did not know of, or was not responsible for, the release of such hazardous substances. These environmental laws also assess liability on persons who arrange for hazardous substances to be sent to disposal or treatment facilities when such facilities are found to be contaminated. Such persons can be responsible for cleanup costs even if they never owned or operated the contaminated facility. Although we have not yet been named a responsible party at a contaminated site, we could be named a potentially responsible party in the future. We cannot assure


17


Table of Contents

you that such existing laws or future laws will not have a material adverse effect on our future earnings or results of operations.
 
Our business and operations are subject to the risks of earthquakes and other natural catastrophic events.
 
Our corporate headquarters, research and development and manufacturing operations are located in Southern California, a region known for seismic activity and wild fires. A significant natural disaster, such as an earthquake, fire or other catastrophic event, could severely affect our ability to conduct normal business operations, and as a result, our future operating results could be materially and adversely affected.
 
Risks Related to Our U.S. Government Contracts
 
We are subject to extensive government regulation, and our failure to comply with applicable regulations could subject us to penalties that may restrict our ability to conduct our business.
 
As a contractor to the U.S. government, we are subject to and must comply with various government regulations that impact our revenue, operating costs, profit margins and the internal organization and operation of our business. The most significant regulations and regulatory authorities affecting our business include the following:
 
  •  the Federal Acquisition Regulations and supplemental agency regulations, which comprehensively regulate the formation and administration of, and performance under, U.S. government contracts;
 
  •  the Truth in Negotiations Act, which requires certification and disclosure of all factual cost and pricing data in connection with contract negotiations;
 
  •  the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which prohibits U.S. companies from providing anything of value to a foreign official to help obtain, retain or direct business, or obtain any unfair advantage;
 
  •  the False Claims Act and the False Statements Act, which impose penalties for payments made on the basis of false facts provided to the government and on the basis of false statements made to the government, respectively;
 
  •  the National Telecommunications and Information Administration and the Federal Communications Commission, which regulate the wireless spectrum allocations upon which UAS depend for operation and data transmission in the United States;
 
  •  the Federal Aviation Administration, which is in the process of drafting regulations specifically for small UAS operation in the United States;
 
  •  the International Traffic in Arms Regulations, which regulate the export of controlled technical data, defense articles and defense services and restrict from which countries we may purchase materials and services used in the production of certain of our products; and
 
  •  laws, regulations and executive orders restricting the use and dissemination of information classified for national security purposes and the exportation of certain products and technical data.
 
Also, we need special security clearances and regulatory approvals to continue working on certain of our projects with the U.S. government. Classified programs generally will require that we comply with various executive orders, federal laws and regulations and customer security requirements that may include restrictions on how we develop, store, protect and share information, and may require our employees to obtain government security clearances. Our failure to comply with applicable regulations, rules and approvals or misconduct by any of our employees could result in the imposition

of fines and penalties, the loss of security clearances, the loss of our government contracts or our suspension or debarment from contracting with the U.S. government generally, any of which would harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. We are also subject to certain regulations of comparable government agencies in other countries, and our failure to comply with these non-U.S. regulations could also harm our business, financial condition or results of operations.
 
Our business could be adversely affected by a negative audit by the U.S. government.
 
U.S. government agencies, primarily the Defense Contract Audit Agency and the Defense Contract Management Agency, routinely audit and investigate government contractors. These agencies review a contractor’s performance under its contracts, cost structure and compliance with applicable laws, regulations and standards. These agencies also may review the adequacy of, and a contractor’s compliance with, its internal control systems and policies, including the contractor’s purchasing, property, estimating, compensation and management information systems. Any costs found to be improperly allocated to a specific contract will not be reimbursed, while such costs already reimbursed must be refunded. If an audit of our business were to uncover improper or illegal activities, then we could be subject to civil and criminal penalties and administrative sanctions, including termination of contracts, forfeiture of profits, suspension of payments, fines and suspension or prohibition from doing business with the U.S. government. In addition, we could suffer serious harm to our reputation if allegations of impropriety or illegal acts were made against us, even if the allegations were inaccurate. If any of the foregoing were to occur, our financial condition and operating results could be materially adversely affected.
 
We are currently being audited by the DCMA with respect to our system for the care, control and accountability of government property. The DCMA has identified certain corrective actions to be taken with respect to our current system, which we are in the process of implementing. Although we are seeking to implement these corrective actions, we cannot assure you that we will do so successfully or that the DCMA will not require additional corrective actions. The failure to successfully implement required corrective actions could harm our business and operating results.
 
Some of our contracts with the U.S. government allow it to use inventions developed under the contracts and to disclose technical data to third parties, which could harm our ability to compete.
 
Some of our contracts allow the U.S. government to use, royalty-free, or have others use, inventions developed under those contracts on behalf of the government. Some of the contracts allow the federal government to disclose technical data without constraining the recipient on how those data are used. The ability of third parties to use patents and technical data for government purposes creates the possibility that the government could attempt to establish alternative suppliers or to negotiate with us to reduce our prices. The potential that the government may release some of the technical data without constraint creates the possibility that third parties may be able to use this data to compete with us, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.
 
U.S. government contracts are generally not fully funded at inception and contain certain provisions that may be unfavorable to us, which could prevent us from realizing our contract backlog and materially harm our business and results of operations.
 
DoD contracts typically involve long lead times for design and development, and are subject to significant changes in contract scheduling. Congress generally appropriates funds on a fiscal year basis even though a program may continue for several years. Consequently, programs are often only partially funded initially, and additional funds are committed only as Congress makes further

appropriations. The termination or reduction of funding for a government program would result in a loss of anticipated future revenue attributable to that program.
 
As of July 29, 2006, we had funded U.S. government contract backlog of $67.9 million and estimated unfunded U.S. government contract backlog of $457.3 million. The actual receipt of revenue on awards included in backlog may never occur or may change because a program schedule could change or the program could be canceled, or a contract could be reduced, modified or terminated early.
 
In addition, U.S. government contracts generally contain provisions permitting termination, in whole or in part, at the government’s convenience or for contractor default. Since a substantial majority of our revenue is dependent on the procurement, performance and payment under our U.S. government contracts, the termination of one or more critical government contracts could have a negative impact on our results of operations and financial condition. Termination arising out of our default could expose us to liability and have a material adverse effect on our ability to re-compete for future contracts and orders. Moreover, several of our contracts with the U.S. government do not contain a limitation of liability provision, creating a risk of responsibility for indirect, incidental damages and consequential damages. These provisions could cause substantial liability for us, especially given the use to which our products may be put.
 
U.S. government contracts are subject to a competitive bidding process that can consume significant resources without generating any revenue.
 
U.S. government contracts are frequently awarded only after formal, protracted competitive bidding processes and, in many cases, unsuccessful bidders for U.S. government contracts are provided the opportunity to protest contract awards through various agency, administrative and judicial channels. We derive significant revenue from U.S. government contracts that were awarded through a competitive bidding process. Much of the UAS business that we expect to seek in the foreseeable future likely will be awarded through competitive bidding. Competitive bidding presents a number of risks, including the following:
 
  •  the need to bid on programs in advance of the completion of their design, which may result in unforeseen technological difficulties and cost overruns;
 
  •  the substantial cost and managerial time and effort that must be spent to prepare bids and proposals for contracts that may not be awarded to us;
 
  •  the need to estimate accurately the resources and cost structure that will be required to service any contract we are awarded; and
 
  •  the expense and delay that may arise if our competitors protest or challenge contract awards made to us pursuant to competitive bidding, and the risk that any such protest or challenge could result in the delay of our contract performance, the distraction of management, the resubmission of bids on modified specifications, or in termination, reduction or modification of the awarded contract.
 
We may not be provided the opportunity to bid on contracts that are held by other companies and are scheduled to expire if the government extends the existing contract. If we are unable to win particular contracts that are awarded through a competitive bidding process, then we may not be able to operate in the market for goods and services that are provided under those contracts for a number of years. If we are unable to win new contract awards over any extended period consistently, then our business and prospects will be adversely affected.

Risks Related to Our Intellectual Property
 
If we fail to protect, or incur significant costs in defending, our intellectual property and other proprietary rights, our business and results of operations could be materially harmed.
 
Our success depends, in large part, on our ability to protect our intellectual property and other proprietary rights. We rely primarily on patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets and unfair competition laws, as well as license agreements and other contractual provisions, to protect our intellectual property and other proprietary rights. However, a significant portion of our technology is not patented, and we may be unable or may not seek to obtain patent protection for this technology. Moreover, existing U.S. legal standards relating to the validity, enforceability and scope of protection of intellectual property rights offer only limited protection, may not provide us with any competitive advantages, and may be challenged by third parties. The laws of countries other than the United States may be even less protective of intellectual property rights. Accordingly, despite our efforts, we may be unable to prevent third parties from infringing upon or misappropriating our intellectual property or otherwise gaining access to our technology. Unauthorized third parties may try to copy or reverse engineer our products or portions of our products or otherwise obtain and use our intellectual property. Moreover, many of our employees have access to our trade secrets and other intellectual property. If one or more of these employees leave us to work for one of our competitors, then they may disseminate this proprietary information, which may as a result damage our competitive position. If we fail to protect our intellectual property and other proprietary rights, then our business, results of operations or financial condition could be materially harmed.
 
In addition, affirmatively defending our intellectual property rights and investigating whether we are pursuing a product or service development that may violate the rights of others may entail significant expense. We have not found it necessary to resort to legal proceedings to protect our intellectual property, but may find it necessary to do so in the future. Any of our intellectual property rights may be challenged by others or invalidated through administrative processes or litigation. If we resort to legal proceedings to enforce our intellectual property rights or to determine the validity and scope of the intellectual property or other proprietary rights of others, then the proceedings could result in significant expense to us and divert the attention and efforts of our management and technical employees, even if we prevail.
 
We may be sued by third parties for alleged infringement of their proprietary rights, which could be costly, time-consuming and limit our ability to use certain technologies in the future.
 
We may become subject to claims that our technologies infringe upon the intellectual property or other proprietary rights of third parties. Any claims, with or without merit, could be time-consuming and expensive, and could divert our management’s attention away from the execution of our business plan. Moreover, any settlement or adverse judgment resulting from these claims could require us to pay substantial amounts or obtain a license to continue to use the disputed technology, or otherwise restrict or prohibit our use of the technology. We cannot assure you that we would be able to obtain a license from the third party asserting the claim on commercially reasonable terms, if at all, that we would be able to develop alternative technology on a timely basis, if at all, or that we would be able to obtain a license to use a suitable alternative technology to permit us to continue offering, and our customers to continue using, our affected product. An adverse determination also could prevent us from offering our products to others. Infringement claims asserted against us may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.
 
Risks Relating to Securities Markets and Investment in Our Stock
 
There may not be a viable public market for our common stock.
 
Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for our common stock, and there can be no assurance that a regular trading market will develop and continue after this offering or that the market price of our common stock will not decline below the initial public offering price. If no trading


21


Table of Contents

market develops, then securities analysts may not initiate or maintain research coverage of us which could further depress the market for our common stock. As a result, investors may not be able to sell their common stock at or above the initial public offering price or at the time that they would like to sell. The initial public offering price will be determined through negotiations between us and the representatives of the underwriters and may not be indicative of the market price of our common stock following this offering.
 
Our management, whose interests may not be aligned with yours, is able to control the vote on all matters requiring stockholder approval.
 
As of July 29, 2006, our executive officers and their affiliates collectively held           shares, or 80.7%, of our total outstanding shares of common stock. Upon consummation of this offering, our executive officers will collectively hold           shares, or  %, of our total outstanding shares of common stock. Accordingly, our executive officers as a group will continue to control the vote on all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors. The interests of our executive officers may not be fully aligned with yours. Although there is no agreement among our executive officers with respect to the voting of their shares, this concentration of ownership may delay, defer or even prevent a change in control of our company, and make transactions more difficult or impossible without the support of all or some of our executive officers. These transactions might include proxy contests, tender offers, mergers or other purchases of common stock that could give you the opportunity to realize a premium over the then-prevailing market price for shares of our common stock.
 
Market volatility may affect our stock price and the value of your investment.
 
Following this offering, the market price for our common stock is likely to be volatile, in part because our shares have not been traded publicly. The market prices for securities of emerging technology companies have historically been highly volatile, and the market has from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly in response to a number of factors, most of which we cannot control, including the following:
 
  •  U.S. government spending levels, both generally and by our particular customers;
 
  •  the volume of operational activity by the U.S. military;
 
  •  delays in the payment of our invoices by government payment offices, resulting in potentially reduced earnings during a particular fiscal quarter;
 
  •  announcements of new products or technologies, commercial relationships or other events relating to us or our industry or our competitors;
 
  •  failure of any of our key products to gain market acceptance;
 
  •  variations in our quarterly operating results;
 
  •  perceptions of the prospects for the markets in which we compete;
 
  •  changes in general economic conditions;
 
  •  changes in securities analysts’ estimates of our financial performance;
 
  •  regulatory developments in the United States and foreign countries;
 
  •  fluctuations in stock market prices and trading volumes of similar companies;
 
  •  news about the markets in which we compete or regarding our competitors;
 
  •  terrorist acts or military action related to international conflicts, wars or otherwise;


22


Table of Contents

 
  •  sales of large blocks of our common stock, including sales by our executive officers, directors and significant stockholders; and
 
  •  additions or departures of key personnel.
 
In addition, the equity markets in general, and Nasdaq in particular, have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies. Further, the market prices of securities of emerging technology companies have been particularly volatile. These broad market and industry factors may affect the market price of our common stock adversely, 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 often has been instituted against that company. This type of litigation, if instituted against us, could result in substantial costs and a diversion of management’s attention and resources.
 
Future sales of our common stock may depress our stock price.
 
After completion of this offering, we will have           shares of common stock outstanding. The shares sold in this offering, or           shares if the underwriters’ over-allotment is exercised in full, will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration under federal securities laws unless purchased by our “affiliates” as such term is used in Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or Securities Act.           shares of common stock outstanding after completion of this offering, based upon shares outstanding as of July 29, 2006, will be available for sale in the public market as of the date of this prospectus. After the lock-up agreements pertaining to this offering expire, up to an additional           shares of our common stock will be eligible for sale in the public market,           of which are held by executive officers, directors and other affiliates and will be subject to volume limitations under Rule 144 of the Securities Act.
 
The above information assumes the effectiveness of the lock-up agreements under which current holders of           shares of our common stock and all of our officers and directors have agreed not to sell or otherwise dispose of their shares of common stock. Goldman, Sachs & Co., on behalf of the underwriters, may, in its sole discretion and at any time without notice, release all or any portion of the securities subject to lock-up agreements. In considering any request to release shares subject to a lock-up agreement, Goldman, Sachs & Co. will consider the facts and circumstances relating to a request at the time of that request.
 
If our existing common stockholders sell substantial amounts of common stock in the public market, or if the market perceives that these sales may occur, then the market price of our common stock may decline, including below the initial public offering price.
 
In addition, as soon as practicable after the completion of this offering, we intend to file a registration statement under the Securities Act covering           shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding options under our Nonqualified Stock Option Plan,           shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding options under our Directors’ Nonqualified Stock Option Plan,           shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding options under our 2002 Equity Incentive Plan and shares of common stock reserved for future issuance under our 2006 Equity Incentive Plan. The shares registered under such registration statement will be available for sale in the open market, subject to vesting restrictions with us, the contractual lock-up agreements described above and the contractual lock-up agreements and market stand-off provisions contained in the agreements pursuant to which these options were issued. If these additional shares are sold, or if it is perceived that they will be sold, in the public market, then the trading price of our common stock could decline. See “Shares Eligible for Future Sale.”

Table of Contents

You will experience immediate and substantial dilution as a result of this offering and may experience additional dilution in the future.
 
We expect the initial public offering price of our common stock in this offering to be substantially higher than the net tangible book value per share of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, investors purchasing shares of common stock in this offering will pay a price that substantially exceeds the value of our tangible assets after subtracting our liabilities. As a result, investors will:
 
  •  incur immediate dilution of $      per share, based on an assumed initial public offering price of $      per share, the midpoint of our expected public offering price range; and
 
  •  contribute  % of the total amount invested to date to fund our company based on the initial offering price to the public of $      per share, but will own only  % of the shares of common stock outstanding upon completion of this offering.
 
You will experience additional dilution upon the exercise of options to purchase common stock under our equity incentive plans, if we issue restricted stock to our employees under these plans or if we otherwise issue additional shares of our common stock. See “Dilution.”
 
We plan to reincorporate in Delaware prior to the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, and the provisions in our charter documents, as amended and restated, and under Delaware law could delay or discourage a takeover that stockholders may consider favorable.
 
Provisions in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws, to be effective upon completion of this offering, may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control or changes in our management. Some of these provisions include:
 
  •  a board of directors divided into three classes serving staggered three-year terms;
 
  •  a prohibition on stockholder action through written consent;
 
  •  a requirement that special meetings of stockholders be called only by the chairman of our board of directors, the chief executive officer, the president or by a majority of the total number of authorized directors;
 
  •  advance notice requirements for stockholder proposals and nominations;
 
  •  a requirement of approval of not less than 662/3% of all outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote to amend any bylaws by stockholder action, or to amend specific provisions of our certificate of incorporation; and
 
  •  the authority of our board of directors to issue preferred stock on terms determined by our board of directors without stockholder approval.
 
In addition, because we plan to reincorporate in Delaware, we will be governed by the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which may prohibit certain business combinations with stockholders owning 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock. These and other provisions in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, amended and restated bylaws and Delaware law could make it more difficult for stockholders or potential acquirers to obtain control of our board of directors or initiate actions that are opposed by the then-current board of directors, including to delay or impede a merger, tender offer, or proxy contest involving our company. Any delay or prevention of a change of control transaction or changes in our board of directors could cause the market price of our common stock to decline.

We will incur significant increased costs as a result of operating as a public company, and our management will be required to devote substantial time to new compliance initiatives.
 
As a public company, we will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as the related rules and regulations enacted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, and the Nasdaq Global Market, have required changes in corporate governance practices of public companies. We expect these rules and regulations to increase our legal and financial compliance costs. In addition, we will incur additional costs associated with our public company reporting requirements. We also expect these rules and regulations to make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our board of directors or as executive officers. We currently are evaluating and monitoring developments with respect to these rules, and we cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs.
 
We can provide no assurance regarding our conclusions as of April 30, 2008 with respect to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.
 
Beginning with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2008, pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, our management will be required to deliver an annual report that assesses the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, and we will be required to have our independent registered public accounting firm deliver an attestation report on management’s assessment. If our management or our independent registered public accounting firm were to conclude in their reports that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective, then investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information and the trading price of our stock could drop significantly.
 
We will be required to devote significant resources to complete the assessment and documentation of our internal control system and financial processes, including an assessment of the design of our information systems. We also may incur significant costs to remediate any control deficiencies we identify through these efforts. We cannot assure you that we will be able to complete the required management assessment by our Section 404 reporting deadline. An inability to complete and document this assessment would cause our auditors to conclude that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective. In addition, if a material weakness were identified with respect to our internal control over financial reporting, then neither we nor our auditors would be able to conclude that our internal control over financial reporting was effective. Ineffective internal control over financial reporting also could cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our common stock.
 
We may allocate the net proceeds from this offering in ways in which you and other stockholders may not agree or which may not yield a return.
 
We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering to increase our working capital, fund general corporate purposes, fund research and development, general marketing activities, general and administrative matters and finance opportunistic acquisitions and other capital expenditures.
 
Our management will, however, have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds from this offering and you will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds are being used appropriately. The net proceeds may be used for corporate purposes that do not necessarily improve our operating results or enhance the market value of our common stock. Until the net proceeds are used, they may be placed in investments that do not produce significant income or that lose value.

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
 
This prospectus contains forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this prospectus, including statements regarding our future results of operations and financial position, business strategy and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.
 
In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “could,” “intends,” “target,” “projects,” “contemplates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other similar words. These statements are only predictions. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. We discuss many of the risks in greater detail under the heading “Risk Factors.” Also, these forward-looking statements represent our estimates and assumptions only as of the date of this prospectus. You should read this prospectus and the documents that we reference in this prospectus and have filed as exhibits to the registration statement, of which this prospectus is a part, completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. Except as required by law, we assume no obligation to update these forward-looking statements publicly, or to update the reasons actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements, even if new information becomes available in the future.
 
This prospectus also contains estimates and other statistical data made by independent parties and by us relating to market size and growth and other industry data. These data involve a number of assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to such estimates. We have not independently verified the statistical and other industry data generated by independent parties and contained in this prospectus and, accordingly, we cannot guarantee their accuracy or completeness. In addition, projections, assumptions and estimates of our future performance and the future performance of the industries in which we operate are necessarily subject to a high degree of uncertainty and risk due to a variety of factors, including those described in “Prospectus Summary,” “Risk Factors,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” “Business” and elsewhere in this prospectus. These and other factors could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in the estimates made by the independent parties and by us.

USE OF PROCEEDS
 
We estimate that we will receive net proceeds of approximately $      million from the sale of the shares of common stock offered in this offering, based on an assumed initial public offering price of $      per share, which is the midpoint of the range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, and after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of shares of common stock by the selling stockholders.
 
The primary purpose of this offering is to fund working capital and other general corporate purposes, including to finance research and development of products, sales and marketing activities, opportunistic acquisitions and other capital expenditures. The amounts and timing of our actual expenditures may vary significantly from our expectations depending on numerous factors, including our results of operations, financial condition and capital requirements. Management has broad discretion to allocate the net proceeds of this offering among the identified uses described above. Pending their use, we intend to invest the net proceeds in short-term, interest-bearing, investment-grade securities.
 
If we were to price the offering at $      per share, the low end of the range on the cover of this prospectus, we estimate that we would receive net proceeds of $      million, assuming the total number of shares offered by us remains the same and after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us. If we were to price the offering at $      per share, the high end of the range on the cover of this prospectus, then we estimate that we would receive net proceeds of $      million, assuming the total number of shares offered by us remains the same and after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us.
 
DIVIDEND POLICY
 
We currently intend to retain all future earnings, if any, for use in the operation and expansion of our business and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Our debt agreements restrict us from paying any dividends to our stockholders. Any future determination related to dividend policy will be made at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon, among other factors, our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements, contractual restrictions and such other factors as our board of directors deems relevant.

DILUTION
 
If you invest in our common stock, your interest will be diluted to the extent the initial public offering price per share of our common stock in this offering exceeds the as adjusted net tangible book value per share of our common stock after completion of this offering. Net tangible book value per share is determined at any date by subtracting our total liabilities from the total book value of our tangible assets (total assets less intangible assets) and dividing the difference by the pro forma number of our shares of common stock deemed to be outstanding at that date. Dilution in net tangible book value per share represents the difference between the amount per share paid by purchasers of shares of common stock in this offering and the net tangible book value per share of common stock immediately after completion of this offering.
 
Our net tangible book value as of July 29, 2006, was approximately $35.9 million, or approximately $      per share of our common stock. Investors participating in this offering will incur immediate and substantial dilution.
 
After giving effect to the sale of           shares offered by us in this offering at an assumed initial public offering price of $      per share, the midpoint of the range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, and after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and our estimated offering expenses, our as adjusted net tangible book value as of July 29, 2006 would have been approximately $      million, or approximately $      per share of common stock. This represents an immediate increase in as adjusted net tangible book value of $      per share to existing stockholders and an immediate dilution in as adjusted net tangible book value of $      per share to new investors. The following table illustrates this per share dilution:

The calculation below is based on an assumed initial public offering price of $      per share, the midpoint of the range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, before deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us:

The above discussion and tables assume the exercise of outstanding options as of July 29, 2006 to purchase an aggregate of           shares of common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $      per share that will be sold by selling stockholders in the offering and no exercise of other options outstanding as of July 29, 2006. As of July 29, 2006, in addition to these options to purchase an aggregate of           shares, we had outstanding options to purchase a total of           shares of common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $      per share. To the extent any of these options are exercised, there will be further dilution to new investors.
 
Sales of common stock by the selling stockholders in the offering will reduce the number of shares of common stock held by existing stockholders to          , or approximately  % of the total shares of common stock outstanding after the offering, and will increase the number of shares held by new public investors to          , or approximately  % of the total shares of common stock outstanding after the offering.
 
A $1.00 decrease in the assumed offering price would decrease our net tangible book value after this offering by $      million and dilution in net tangible book value per share to new investors by $     , assuming the total number of shares offered by us remains the same and after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us. A $1.00 decrease in the assumed offering price would decrease each of total consideration paid by new investors in the offering and total consideration paid by all stockholders by $      million, assuming the total number of shares offered by us remains the same and before deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us.
 
A $1.00 increase in the assumed offering price would increase our net tangible book value after this offering by $      million and dilution in net tangible book value per share to new investors by $     , assuming the total number of shares offered by us remains the same and after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us. A $1.00 increase in the assumed offering price would increase each of total consideration paid by new investors in the offering and total consideration paid by all stockholders by $      million, assuming the total number of shares offered by us remains the same and before deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with “Selected Consolidated Financial Data” and our consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this prospectus. In addition to historical information, this discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including but not limited to, those set forth under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus.
 
Overview
 
We design, develop, produce and support a technologically-advanced portfolio of small unmanned aircraft systems that we supply primarily to organizations within the U.S. Department of Defense, and fast charge systems for electric industrial vehicle batteries that we supply to commercial customers. We derive the majority of our revenue from these two business areas. Customers for our small unmanned aircraft systems, or UAS, include the U.S. Army, U.S. Marine Corps and the U.S. Special Operations Command, or SOCOM. Customers for our PosiCharge fast charge systems include Ford Motor Company, SYSCO Corporation, Southwest Airlines and IKEA for use in their factories, distribution centers, cold storage facilities and airport ground support operations.
 
Revenue
 
We generate our revenue primarily from the sale and support of our small UAS and PosiCharge solutions. Support for our small UAS customers includes training, customer support and repair and replacement work, which we refer to collectively as our logistics operation. We derive most of our small UAS revenue from fixed-price and cost-plus-fee contracts with the U.S. government and most of our PosiCharge revenue from sales and service to commercial customers. We also generate revenue from our Energy Technology Center through providing contract development and engineering services, the sale of our power processing systems and license fees.
 
Cost of Sales
 
Cost of sales consists of direct costs and allocated indirect costs. Direct costs include labor, materials, travel, subcontracts and other costs directly related to the execution of a specific contract. Indirect costs include overhead expenses, fringe benefits and other costs that are not directly related to the execution of a specific contract.
 
Research and Development Expense
 
Research and development, or R&D, is an integral part of our business model. We conduct significant internally funded research and development and anticipate that research and development expense will continue to increase in absolute dollars for the foreseeable future.
 
Selling, General and Administrative
 
Our selling, general and administrative expenses, or SG&A, include salaries and other expenses related to selling, marketing and proposal activities, and other administrative costs. In addition, expense associated with our supplemental executive retirement plan is included in SG&A.
 
Other Income and Expenses, Net
 
Other income and expenses, net include interest income, interest expense, and gains and losses on sales of assets.

Income Tax Expense
 
Beginning in fiscal 2005, our effective tax rates were substantially lower than the statutory rates primarily due to research and development tax credits. The federal research and development tax credit expired in December 2005. If this tax credit is not reinstated, then our annual tax rate likely will increase.
 
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discusses our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. When we prepare these consolidated financial statements, we are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Some of our accounting policies require that we make subjective judgments, including estimates that involve matters that are inherently uncertain. Our most critical estimates include those related to revenue recognition, inventories and reserves for excess and obsolescence, our supplemental executive retirement plan, self-insured liabilities, accounting for stock-based awards, and income taxes. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for our judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
 
We believe the following critical accounting estimates affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in preparing our consolidated financial statements. See Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for our Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. There have been no material changes made to the critical accounting estimates during the periods presented in the consolidated financial statements.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
Significant management judgments and estimates must be made and used in connection with the recognition of revenue in any accounting period. Material differences in the amount of revenue in any given period may result if these judgments or estimates prove to be incorrect or if management’s estimates change on the basis of development of the business or market conditions.
 
The substantial majority of our revenue is generated pursuant to written contractual arrangements to design, develop, manufacture and/or modify complex products, and to provide related engineering, technical and other services according to customer specifications. These contracts may be fixed-price or cost-reimbursable. These contract types are accounted for in accordance with American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position 81-1, “Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts,” or SOP 81-1.
 
Revenue from product sales not under contractual arrangement is recognized at the time title and the risk and rewards of ownership pass, which typically occurs when the products are shipped and collection is reasonably assured.
 
Revenue and profits on fixed-price contracts are recognized using percentage-of-completion methods of accounting. Revenue and profits on fixed-price production contracts, whose units are produced and delivered in a continuous or sequential process, are recorded as units are delivered based on their selling prices, or the units-of-delivery method. Revenue and profits on other fixed-price contracts with significant engineering as well as production requirements are recorded based on the ratio of total actual incurred costs to date to the total estimated costs for each contract, or the cost-to-cost method. Under percentage-of-completion methods of accounting, a single estimated total profit margin is used to recognize profit for each contract over its entire period of performance,


35


Table of Contents

which can exceed one year. Accounting for revenue and profits on a fixed-price contract requires the preparation of estimates of (1) the total contract revenue, (2) the total costs at completion, which is equal to the sum of the actual incurred costs to date on the contract and the estimated costs to complete the contract’s statement of work and (3) the measurement of progress towards completion. The estimated profit or loss at completion on a contract is equal to the difference between the total estimated contract revenue and the total estimated cost at completion. Under the units-of-delivery method, sales on a fixed-price type contract are recorded as the units are delivered during the period based on their contractual selling prices. Under the cost-to-cost method, sales on a fixed-price type contract are recorded at amounts equal to the ratio of actual cumulative costs incurred divided by total estimated costs at completion, multiplied by (A) the total estimated contract revenue, less (B) the cumulative sales recognized in prior periods. The profit recorded on a contract in any period using either the units-of-delivery method or cost-to-cost method is equal to (X) the current estimated total profit margin multiplied by the cumulative sales recognized, less (Y) the amount of cumulative profit previously recorded for the contract. In the case of a contract for which the total estimated costs exceed the total estimated revenue, a loss arises, and a provision for the entire loss is recorded in the period that it becomes evident. The unrecoverable costs on a loss contract that are expected to be incurred in future periods are recorded in the program cost.
 
Revenue and profits on cost-reimbursable type contracts are recognized as costs are incurred on the contract, at an amount equal to the costs plus the estimated profit on those costs. The estimated profit on a cost-reimbursable contract is generally fixed or variable based on the contractual fee arrangement.
 
We review cost performance and estimates to complete at least quarterly and in many cases more frequently. Adjustments to original estimates for a contract’s revenue, estimated costs at completion and estimated profit or loss are often required as work progresses under a contract, as experience is gained and as more information is obtained, even though the scope of work required under the contract may not change, or if contract modifications occur. The impact of revisions in profit estimates for all types of contracts are recognized on a cumulative catch-up basis in the period in which the revisions are made. Amounts representing contract change orders or claims are included in revenue only when they can be reliably estimated and their realization is probable. Incentives or penalties and awards applicable to performance on contracts are considered in estimating revenue and profit rates, and are recorded when there is sufficient information to assess anticipated contract performance. Revenue on arrangements that are not within the scope of SOP 81-1 are recognized in accordance with the SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements.”
 
Inventories and Reserve for Excess and Obsolescence
 
Our policy for valuation of inventory, including the determination of obsolete or excess inventory, requires us to perform a detailed assessment of inventory at each balance sheet date, which includes a review of, among other factors, an estimate of future demand for products within specific time horizons, valuation of existing inventory, as well as product lifecycle and product development plans. Inventory reserves are also provided to cover risks arising from slow-moving items. We write down our inventory for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventory equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the estimated market value based on assumptions about future demand and market conditions. We may be required to record additional inventory write-downs if actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by our management.
 
Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan Obligation
 
We maintain a supplemental executive retirement plan, which is a non-qualified defined benefit plan for Dr. MacCready, our Founder and Chairman of our board of directors. The plan is non-contributory and non-funded. Pension expense is determined using various actuarial cost methods to estimate the total benefits ultimately payable to the plan beneficiary, and this amount is accrued as a


36


Table of Contents

liability on our balance sheet. We review the actuarial assumptions used to calculate pension costs annually. This plan will terminate automatically upon completion of this offering without any payment to Dr. MacCready, which will result in a reversal of the related accrued expense of approximately $2.2 million in the period in which the offering is completed.
 
Self-Insured Liability
 
We are self-insured for employee medical claims, subject to individual and aggregate stop-loss policies. We estimate a liability for claims filed and incurred but not reported claims based upon recent claims experience and an analysis of the average period of time between the occurrence of a claim and the time it is reported to and paid by us. We perform an annual evaluation of this policy and have determined that for all prior years during which this policy has been in effect there have been cost advantages to this policy, as compared to obtaining commercially available employee medical insurance. However, actual results may differ materially from those estimated and could have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
 
Accounting for Stock-Based Awards
 
Historically, we applied Accounting Principles Board No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations, or Opinion 25, in accounting for our stock-based compensation plans. We granted options with exercise prices at or above the estimated fair value of our common stock. No compensation expense was recorded as the exercise price equals or exceeds the fair value of the underlying stock on the grant date.
 
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment,” or SFAS 123R. SFAS 123R eliminates the alternative of applying the intrinsic value measurement provisions of Opinion 25 to stock compensation awards issued to employees. Instead, SFAS 123R requires companies to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award. That cost must be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period, which is usually the vesting period. We adopted SFAS 123R effective May 1, 2006. Because we historically used the minimum value method of measuring stock options, implementation of SFAS 123R applies prospectively to new awards after adoption. No expense is recognized for options granted prior to adoption. No awards were granted and no expense was recognized during the three months ended July 29, 2006 as a result of adoption.
 
Given the absence of an active market for our common stock, our board of directors is required to estimate the fair value of our common stock. Our board of directors considered numerous objective and subjective factors in determining the value of our common stock at each option grant date, including the following factors: (1) contemporaneous valuations; (2) the fact that the option grants involved illiquid securities in a private company; (3) our stage of development and revenue growth; and (4) the likelihood of achieving a liquidity event for the shares of common stock underlying the options, such as an initial public offering or sale of our company, given prevailing market conditions.
 
Income Taxes
 
We are required to estimate our income taxes, which includes estimating our current income taxes as well as measuring the temporary differences resulting from different treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes. We currently have significant deferred assets, which are subject to periodic recoverability assessments. Realizing our deferred tax assets principally depends on our achieving projected future taxable income. We may change our judgments regarding future profitability due to future market conditions and other factors, which may result in recording a valuation allowance against those deferred tax assets. Beginning in fiscal 2005, our effective tax rates were substantially lower than the statutory rates primarily due to research and development tax credits. The federal


37


Table of Contents

research and development tax credit expired in December 2005. If this tax credit is not reinstated, then our tax rate for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2007 may be higher than we experienced in the fiscal years ended April 30, 2005 and 2006 as it will not reflect such credit.
 
Fiscal Periods
 
Our fiscal year ends on April 30 and our fiscal quarters end on the last Saturday of July, October and January.

Three Months Ended July 29, 2006 Compared to Three Months Ended July 30, 2005
 
Revenue.  Revenue for the three months ended July 29, 2006 was $31.6 million, as compared to $30.8 million for the three months ended July 30, 2005, representing an increase of $0.8 million, or 3%. UAS revenue increased $0.7 million to $25.0 million for the three months ended July 29, 2006, largely due to the continued growth of our logistics operation, which was launched in fiscal year 2005. Revenue from our logistics operation increased $3.3 million, while UAS product sales decreased $2.6 million. The decrease in UAS product sales was largely due to product shipments being deferred into the latter part of this fiscal year pending customer testing and evaluation, which has been completed. PosiCharge fast charge systems revenue increased by $0.4 million to $4.9 million for the three months ended July 29, 2006, primarily due to installation of PosiCharge into additional facilities operated by our existing customers. Energy Technology Center revenue decreased by $0.3 million to $1.6 million in the three months ended July 29, 2006, primarily due to lower sales of power processing test equipment.
 
Cost of Sales.  Cost of sales for the three months ended July 29, 2006 was $19.6 million, as compared to $19.5 million for the three months ended July 30, 2005, representing an increase of $0.1 million, or less than 1%. The increase in cost of sales was caused by higher PosiCharge fast charge systems cost of sales of $0.1 million.
 
Gross Margin.  Gross margin for the three months ended July 29, 2006 was $12.0 million, as compared to $11.2 million for the three months ended July 30, 2005, representing an increase of $0.8 million, or 7%. UAS gross margin increased $0.6 million to $9.3 million for the three months ended July 29, 2006. As a percentage of revenue, gross margin for UAS increased from 36% to 37%. PosiCharge fast charge systems gross margin increased $0.3 million to $1.9 million for the three months ended July 29, 2006, due to the increase in sales volume. As a percentage of revenue, PosiCharge fast charge systems gross margin increased from 36% to 39% for the three months ended July 29, 2006, due to the achievement of direct and indirect cost efficiencies coincident with higher sales volume. Energy Technology Center gross margin decreased $0.2 million to $0.8 million for the three months ended July 29, 2006, primarily due to lower sales of power processing test equipment. As a percentage of revenue, Energy Technology Center gross margin decreased from 51% to 48% for the three months ended July 29, 2006, primarily due to the lower equipment sales relative to customer-funded research and development work.

Research and Development.  R&D expense for the three months ended July 29, 2006 was $3.8 million (or 12% of revenue), compared to R&D expense of $3.5 million (or 11% of revenue) for the three months ended July 30, 2005. The increase in R&D expense reflected our investment in improvement and expansion of existing product lines and development of new product opportunities.
 
Selling, General and Administrative.  SG&A expense for the three months ended July 29, 2006 was $6.1 million (or 19% of revenue), compared to SG&A expense of $5.6 million (or 18% of revenue) in the three months ended July 30, 2005. The increase in SG&A expense of $0.5 million was caused primarily by the added administrative and marketing infrastructure necessary as we continue to grow our business.
 
Income Tax Expense.  Our effective income tax rate was 38.5% for the three months ended July 29, 2006, as compared to 30.0% for the three months ended July 30, 2005. This increase was due to the expiration of the federal research and development tax credit on December 31, 2005. As of July 29, 2006, this tax credit had not been reinstated. If the tax credit is reinstated, then we will make an adjustment to our effective tax rate in the fiscal period during which the tax credit is reinstated.
 
Fiscal Year Ended April 30, 2006 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended April 30, 2005
 
Revenue.  Revenue for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006 was $139.4 million, as compared to $105.2 million for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2005, representing an increase of $34.2 million, or 33%. UAS revenue increased $28.9 million to $111.1 million for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, largely due to the continued growth of our logistics operations, which were launched in the fiscal year ended April 30, 2005 and accounted for $20.1 million of the increase in UAS revenue. The remaining increase in UAS revenue of $8.8 million was due to an increase in product sales. PosiCharge fast charge systems revenue increased by $4.3 million to $19.9 million for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006 primarily due to acceptance of PosiCharge into multiple facilities operated by one of our existing customers. Energy Technology Center revenue increased by $1.1 million to $8.3 million in the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, primarily due to an increase in sales of power processing test equipment.
 
Cost of Sales.  Cost of sales for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006 was $82.6 million, as compared to $58.5 million for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2005, representing an increase of $24.1 million, or 41%. The increase in cost of sales was caused by higher UAS cost of sales of $21.5 million, higher PosiCharge fast charge systems cost of sales of $2.1 million, and higher Energy Technology Center cost of sales of $0.4 million. The increase in UAS cost of sales was largely due to a full year of our logistics activities. The increase in PosiCharge fast charge systems cost of sales was primarily due to the continued adoption of our fast charge systems.
 
Gross Margin.  Gross margin for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006 was $56.8 million, as compared to $46.6 million for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2005, representing an increase of $10.2 million, or 22%. UAS gross margin increased $7.3 million to $44.6 million for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006. As a percentage of revenue, gross margin for UAS decreased from 45% to 40%, largely due to a reduction in pricing on UAS production orders in fiscal year 2006 and an increase in cost-plus-fee contracts relative to fixed-price contracts, the former of which tend to have lower gross margins, as described more fully in “Government Contracting Process.” The lower pricing also reflected the pass-through of manufacturing cost efficiencies to our customers. PosiCharge fast charge systems gross margin increased $2.2 million to $8.1 million for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, due to the increase in sales volume. As a percentage of revenue, PosiCharge fast charge systems gross margin increased from 37% to 40% for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, due to the achievement of direct and indirect cost efficiencies coincident with higher sales volume. Energy Technology Center gross margin increased $0.6 million to $4.1 million for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, primarily due to increased sales of power processing test equipment. As a percentage of revenue, Energy Technology Center gross margin increased from 49% to 50% for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, primarily due to the higher sales mix of equipment sales compared to customer-funded research and development work.

Research and Development.  R&D expense for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006 was $16.1 million (or 12% of revenue), compared to R&D expense of $9.8 million (or 9% of revenue) for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2005. The increase in R&D expense reflected our investment in improvement and expansion of existing product lines and development of new product opportunities.
 
Selling, General and Administrative.  SG&A expense for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006 was $24.3 million (or 17% of revenue), compared to SG&A expense of $16.6 million (or 16% of revenue) in the fiscal year ended April 30, 2005. The increase in SG&A expense of $7.8 million was caused primarily by the added administrative and marketing infrastructure necessary to support the growth in our business volume and to enhance the documentation of our internal controls. Further, the increase in SG&A expense partially reflects the lag in SG&A infrastructure growth relative to the revenue growth we experienced in the fiscal year ended April 30, 2005. As a percentage of revenue, SG&A expense increased to 17% in the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, primarily due to the establishment of a supplemental executive retirement plan for Dr. MacCready, our Founder and Chairman of our board of directors. The expense associated with this plan was $2.2 million (or 2% of revenue) in 2006.
 
Income Tax Expense.  Our effective income tax rate was 30.0% for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, as compared to 27.4% for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2005. The increase was due to a reduction in the federal research and development tax credit computed based on the expiration of the tax credit on December 31, 2005. As of April 30, 2006, the tax credit had not been reinstated. If the tax credit is reinstated, then we will make an adjustment to our effective tax rate in the fiscal period during which the tax credit is reinstated.
 
Fiscal Year Ended April 30, 2005 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended April 30, 2004
 
Revenue.  Revenue for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2005 was $105.2 million, as compared to $47.7 million for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2004, representing an increase of $57.5 million, or 121%. UAS sales increased $51.9 million to $82.2 million for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2005, due to the high volume of UAS deliveries achieved during the first full year of full-rate UAS production. PosiCharge fast charge systems sales increased $6.5 million to $15.6 million for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2005 due to the continued adoption of these systems, particularly with one existing customer that implemented PosiCharge in many of its North American plants. The decrease in Energy Technology Center sales of $0.9 million was largely due to a decrease in customer-funded research and development.
 
Cost of Sales.  Cost of sales for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2005 was $58.5 million, as compared to $33.1 million for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2004, representing an increase of $25.4 million, or 77%. The increase in cost of sales was driven by higher UAS cost of sales of $24.8 million and higher PosiCharge fast charge systems cost of sales of $4.2 million, partially offset by a decline in Energy Technology Center cost of sales of $3.6 million. The increase in UAS cost of sales was largely due to the high volume of UAS deliveries achieved during the first full year of full-rate UAS production activities. The increase in PosiCharge fast charge systems cost of sales was primarily due to increased adoption and implementation of fast charge systems. The decrease in Energy Technology Center cost of sales was primarily due to lower overall sales and a change in the mix of business toward lower cost power processing systems and write-down of inventory that occurred in 2004 and was not present in 2005.
 
Gross Margin.  Gross margin for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2005 was $46.6 million, as compared to $14.6 million for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2004, representing an increase of $32.0 million, or 220%. UAS gross margin increased $27.1 million to $37.2 million for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2005. As a percentage of revenue, UAS gross margin increased from 33% to 45% for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2005, primarily due to efficiencies achieved during the first full year of full-rate UAS production. PosiCharge fast charge systems gross margin increased $2.3 million to $5.8 million as of April 30, 2005. As a percentage of revenue, PosiCharge fast charge systems gross

margin decreased from 39% to 37% for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2005, primarily due to volume pricing incentives. Energy Technology Center gross margin increased $2.7 million to $3.5 million for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2005. As a percentage of revenue, Energy Technology Center gross margin increased from 11% to 49% for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2005, primarily due to the change in the mix of business toward lower cost power processing systems and write-down of inventory that occurred in 2004 and was not present in 2005.
 
Research and Development.  R&D expense for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2005 was $9.8 million (or 9% of revenue), compared to R&D expense of $1.7 million (or 4% of revenue) for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2004. The increase in R&D expense reflected our investment in improvement and expansion of existing product lines and development of new product opportunities.
 
Selling, General and Administrative.  SG&A expense for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2005 was $16.5 million (or 16% of revenue), compared to SG&A expense of $9.7 million (or 20% of revenue) for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2004. The year-over-year increase in SG&A expense of $6.8 million was caused by adding infrastructure necessary to support our year-over-year sales growth. As a percentage of revenue, our infrastructure costs lagged behind the increase in revenue in 2005.
 
Income Tax Expense.  Our effective income tax rate was 27.4% for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2005, as compared to 28.4% for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2004. The decrease was due to an increase in research and development tax credits, offset in part by a reduction of an amount in excess of the tax liability for 2004.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
We currently have no material cash commitments, except for normal recurring trade payables, accrued expenses and ongoing research and development costs, all of which we anticipate funding through our existing working capital, funds provided by operating activities and our working capital line of credit. The majority of our purchase obligations are pursuant to funded contractual arrangements with our customers. In addition, we do not currently anticipate significant investment in property, plant and equipment, and we believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents, cash provided by operating activities, funds available through our working capital line of credit and other financing sources and the net proceeds from this offering will be sufficient to meet our anticipated working capital, capital expenditure and debt service requirements, if any, during the next twelve months. There can be no assurance, however, that our business will continue to generate cash flow at current levels. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow from operations, then we may be required to sell assets, reduce capital expenditures or obtain additional financing.
 
Our primary liquidity needs are for financing working capital, investing in capital expenditures, supporting product development efforts, introducing new products and enhancing existing products, and marketing acceptance and adoption of our products and services. Our future capital requirements, to a certain extent, are also subject to general conditions in or affecting the defense industry and are subject to general economic, political, financial, competitive, legislative and regulatory factors that are beyond our control. Moreover, to the extent that existing cash, cash equivalents, cash from operations, cash from short-term borrowing and the net proceeds from this offering are insufficient to fund our future activities, we may need to raise additional funds through public or private equity or debt financing. Although we are currently not a party to any agreement or letter of intent with respect to potential investment in, or acquisitions of, businesses, services or technologies, we may enter into these types of arrangements in the future, which could also require us to seek additional equity or debt financing.
 
Our working capital requirements vary by contract type. On cost-plus-fee programs, we typically bill our incurred costs and fees monthly as work progresses, and therefore working capital investment is minimal. On fixed-price contracts, we typically are paid as we deliver products, and working capital

is needed to fund labor and expenses incurred during the lead time from contract award until contract deliveries begin.
 
Cash Flows

Inflation
 
Our operations have not been, and we do not expect them to be, materially affected by inflation. Historically, we have been successful in adjusting prices to our customers to reflect changes in our material and labor costs.
 
New Accounting Standards
 
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment,” or SFAS 123R. SFAS 123R requires that compensation expense relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements at estimated fair value. The scope of SFAS 123R includes a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements, including share options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans. This standard replaces SFAS 123 and supersedes APB 25. As a nonpublic company, we previously utilized the minimum-value method rather than the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation as permitted by SFAS 123. In accordance with SFAS 123, we disclose pro forma net income and earnings per share adjusted for non-cash compensation expense arising from the estimated fair value of share-based payment transactions. We adopted SFAS 123R on a prospective basis, effective as of May 1, 2006. Share-based benefits will be valued at fair value using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The fair value will be expensed over the vesting period. The adoption of SFAS 123R did not result in a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements, but we will recognize a non-cash compensation expense for options granted after May 1, 2006.
 
In March 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, “Share-Based Payment,” or SAB 107. SAB 107 provides guidance to assist registrants in the initial implementation of SFAS 123R. SAB 107 includes interpretive guidance related to share-based payment transactions with non-employees, valuation methods and underlying expected volatility and expected term assumptions, the classification of compensation expense and accounting for the income tax effects of share-based arrangements upon adopting SFAS 123R.
 
In May 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued SFAS No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections,” which requires retrospective application of all voluntary changes in accounting principles to all periods presented, rather than using a cumulative catch-up adjustment as currently required for most accounting changes under APB Opinion 20, “Accounting Changes.” This Statement replaces APB Opinion No. 20 and SFAS No. 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements,” and will be effective for accounting changes and error corrections made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005.
 
In June 2005, the FASB approved Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 05-06, “Determining the Amortization Period for Leasehold Improvements,” or EITF 05-06. EITF 05-06 provides guidance on determining the amortization period for leasehold improvements acquired in a business combination or acquired subsequent to lease inception. The guidance requires that leasehold improvements acquired in a business combination or purchased subsequent to the inception of a lease be amortized

over the lesser of the useful life of the assets or a term that includes renewals that are reasonably assured at the date of the business combination or purchase. The guidance is effective for periods beginning after June 29, 2005. EITF 05-06 is not expected to have any impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
In November 2005, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 123R-3, “Transition Election Related to Accounting for the Tax Effects of Share-Based Payment Awards,” or FSP 123R-3. FSP 123R-3 provides an elective alternative transition method for calculating the pool of excess tax benefits available to absorb tax deficiencies recognized subsequent to the adoption of FAS 123R. Companies may take up to one year from the effective date of FSP 123R-3 to evaluate the available transition alternatives and make a one-time election as to which method to adopt. We are currently in the process of evaluating the alternative methods.
 
In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109,” or FIN 48. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. This accounting standard will be effective for us beginning May 1, 2007. We are currently assessing the provisions of FIN 48.
 
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
 
Interest Rate Risk
 
It is our policy not to enter into interest rate derivative financial instruments. We do not currently have any significant interest rate exposure.
 
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
 
Since a significant part of our sales and expenses are denominated in U.S. dollars, we have not experienced significant foreign exchange gains or losses to date, and do not expect to incur significant foreign exchange gains or losses in the future. We occasionally engage in forward contracts in foreign currencies to limit our exposure on non-U.S. dollar transactions.

BUSINESS
 
Overview
 
We design, develop, produce and support a technologically-advanced portfolio of small unmanned aircraft systems that we supply primarily to organizations within the U.S. Department of Defense, and fast charge systems for electric industrial vehicle batteries that we supply to commercial customers. We derive the majority of our revenue from these two business areas, and we believe that both the small unmanned aircraft systems, or UAS, and fast charge markets are in the early stages of development and have significant growth potential. Additionally, we believe that some of the innovative potential products in our research and development pipeline will emerge as new growth platforms in the future, creating market opportunities. The success we have achieved with our current products stems from our ability to invent and deliver advanced solutions, utilizing our proprietary technologies, to help our government and commercial customers operate more effectively and efficiently. Our core technological capabilities, developed through 35 years of innovation, include lightweight aerostructures and electric propulsion systems, efficient electric energy systems and storage, high-density energy packaging, miniaturization, controls integration and systems engineering optimization. We helped to pioneer and are now a leader in the markets for small UAS and fast charge systems, and we have experienced a compound annual revenue growth rate of 71% for the three-year period ended April 30, 2006.
 
Our small UAS are well positioned to support the transformational strategy of the U.S. Department of Defense, or DoD, the purpose of which is to convert the military into a smaller, more agile force that operates through a network of observation, communication and precision targeting technologies, and its efforts to prosecute the Global War on Terror, which have increased the need for real-time, visual information in new operational environments. Our small UAS, including Raven, Dragon Eye, Swift, Wasp and Puma, are designed to provide valuable intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, or ISR, directly to the small tactical unit, or individual “warfighter” level, thereby increasing flexibility in mission planning and execution. Our small unmanned aircraft wirelessly transmit critical live video and other information generated by their payload of electro-optical or infrared sensors, enabling the operator to view and capture images, during the day or at night, on a hand-held ground control unit. We also provide training by our highly-skilled instructors, who typically have extensive military experience, and continuous refurbishment and repair services for our products.
 
We designed all of our small UAS to be man-portable, launchable by one person and operated through a hand-held control unit. Our small UAS are electrically powered, configured to carry electro-optical or infrared sensors, provide real-time situational awareness and intelligence, fly quietly at speeds reaching 50 miles per hour and travel up to 20 miles from their launch location on a modular, replaceable battery pack. These characteristics make them well suited for reconnaissance, surveillance, target acquisition and battle damage assessment operations. Each of our small UAS typically consists of three aircraft, associated ground control equipment, spares and customer support. We believe that our small UAS capabilities, combined with our high level of service, logistical support and training, have enabled us to win both competitively bid U.S. military small UAS programs of record as of July 29, 2006.
 
We deliver new aircraft to satisfy orders against contracts, and we also deliver new aircraft to replace those damaged in the field. Our DoD customers have shifted from small initial order quantities to long-term, high-volume contracts to purchase our small UAS. As of July 29, 2006, we had U.S. government contract funded backlog of $67.9 million and unfunded indefinite delivery indefinite quantity, or IDIQ, contracts providing for potential purchases of up to approximately $457.3 million. Our backlog consists primarily of contracts and IDIQs with the U.S. Army, U.S. Marine Corps and U.S. Special Operations Command, or SOCOM, which we won through full and open competitions, and we are currently the sole supplier for these contracts. The U.S. Army projects its total demand for our Raven small UAS at approximately 1,900 new systems, of which we had delivered approximately 23% as of July 29, 2006. While military customers represent the substantial majority of the domestic

small UAS market today, we believe that new applications in intelligence, homeland/border security and local law enforcement, as well as potential commercial applications, represent significant new domestic and international growth opportunities for our small UAS solutions.
 
Our PosiCharge products and services are designed to improve productivity and safety for operators of electric industrial vehicles, such as forklifts and airport ground support equipment, by improving battery and fleet management. In multi-shift fleet operations, traditional charging systems require users to exchange vehicle batteries throughout the day because these batteries discharge their energy through vehicle usage and there is insufficient vehicle downtime to recharge them during a shift. Changing these batteries, which can weigh as much as 3,500 pounds, requires labor time and dedicated battery changing rooms that consume valuable floor space. PosiCharge utilizes our proprietary technology in energy and battery management to recharge electric industrial vehicle batteries rapidly during regularly scheduled breaks or other times the vehicle is not in service, eliminating the costly and time-consuming process of removing and replacing the battery. PosiCharge is able to recharge a typical electric industrial vehicle battery and return it to service up to 16 times faster than conventional charging methods, while at the same time managing current, voltage and temperature, which can improve battery performance. To date, PosiCharge fast charge systems have been purchased and installed by a diverse group of customers that includes Ford Motor Company, SYSCO Corporation, Southwest Airlines and IKEA. As of July 29, 2006, our PosiCharge fast charge systems serviced over 5,000 electric industrial vehicles. We estimate that approximately 1.0 million electric industrial vehicles currently operate in North America, including over 100,000 new vehicles that we estimate were shipped in 2005.
 
Research and development activities are integral to our business, and we follow a disciplined approach to investing our resources to create new technologies and solutions. These activities are funded both externally by customers and internally. A fundamental part of this approach is a well-defined screening process that helps business managers identify commercial opportunities that support current or desired technological capabilities. Our UAS research and development activities focus specifically on creating capabilities that support our existing small UAS product portfolio as well as new UAS platforms. Our Energy Technology Center also engages in research and development in support of our existing product lines as well as to develop solutions for other markets such as renewable energy.
 
We foster an entrepreneurial culture that encourages our engineers to pursue innovative solutions and new applications of our core technological capabilities that we believe will be important in future developments and market competition. This approach has resulted in a portfolio consisting of 58 issued patents, 32 in-process patents and 38 patents pending disclosure as of July 29, 2006. In addition, we currently have a number of potential products in various stages of development and commercialization within our research and development program. This process of creating new products resulted in our current small UAS and PosiCharge products. We believe some of our current research and development projects will also produce new products that will be adopted in large markets and will become important growth platforms for us. Examples of current development projects include Global Observer, a high-altitude, long-endurance UAS, Switchblade, a small UAS that can carry both reconnaissance and lethal payloads, Digital Data Link, a wireless communication technology for UAS-based networking, and Architectural Wind, a grid-tied, renewable energy system utilizing a modular wind turbine design.
 
Market Opportunity
 
Small UAS
 
The market for our small UAS has grown significantly due to the U.S. military’s post-Cold War transformation, the demands of the Global War on Terror and the tactical limitations of larger UAS. Following the end of the Cold War, the U.S. military began its transformation into a smaller, more agile force that fights through a network of observation, communication and precision targeting

Table of Contents

technologies. This transformation accelerated following the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, as the U.S. military required improved observation and targeting to combat enemies who operate in small groups, often embedded in dense population centers or dispersed in remote locations. We believe that UAS, which range from large systems, such as Global Hawk and Predator, to small systems, such as our Raven, are an integral part of this transforming military force because they provide critical observation and communications capabilities. The timely delivery of this information from large UAS to small units on the ground is often very difficult. Because our small UAS can provide real-time observation and communication capabilities directly to these small units who directly control them, the market for our small UAS continues to expand. As we explore opportunities to develop new markets for our small UAS such as border surveillance and petrochemical industry infrastructure monitoring, we expect further growth through the introduction of UAS technology to non-military applications.
 
The transformation currently taking place in the U.S. Armed Forces represents a shift from Industrial Age warfare, which emphasized amassing large forces and weapon systems, to Information Age warfare, which emphasizes networked and distributed forces with enhanced situational awareness. At the center of this transformation lies the concept of Network-Centric Warfare, which includes the widespread deployment of sensor and communication systems that collect and transmit information to the small tactical unit, or individual “warfighter” level.
 
Broadly defined, Network-Centric Warfare encompasses strategies, tactics, techniques, procedures, organizations and technologies that a networked force can employ to create a decisive advantage. The principles for developing a network-centric force established by the DoD’s Office of Force Transformation include the following:
 
  •  generate an information advantage through more timely, accurate and relevant information;
 
  •  expand the use of deployable, networked sensors, by leveraging intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, or ISR, capabilities;
 
  •  use sensors to gain information superiority;
 
  •  increase the opportunity for low-level forces to operate nearly autonomously and to be able to rapidly adapt;
 
  •  make the U.S. military more rapidly deployable and able to successfully complete its mission; and
 
  •  enable every weapon platform to be a sensor, from the individual soldier to a satellite.
 
UAS can satisfy many of these new objectives.  Large, high-flying UAS provide a portion of the valuable ISR required for Network-Centric Warfare. These complex systems do not, however, provide warfighters with the direct ability to navigate the aircraft and control its sensors to receive the most relevant tactical information in real-time. Small UAS, on the other hand, by virtue of their significantly lower cost, minimal infrastructure requirements and portability, are operated by small combat units. Our small UAS are capable of delivering valuable ISR, including real-time tactical reconnaissance, tracking, combat assessment and geographic data, directly to the warfighter, which increases flexibility in mission planning and execution. Furthermore, small UAS can contribute to urban combat and stability operations by providing low-altitude ISR and communications relay. Small UAS, therefore, act as “force multipliers” to military commanders by allowing them to observe and assess situations over any terrain and adjust tactics, personnel and firepower to enhance mission effectiveness. Current operations in Iraq and Afghanistan have increased utilization of small UAS, resulting in greater demand for spares, repairs and refurbishment. Most importantly, the use of small UAS in Iraq and Afghanistan has accelerated their broad adoption within the DoD. We believe that the U.S. military’s ongoing transformation, coupled with the nature of the threat associated with the Global War on Terror, will continue to be long-term drivers of the demand for small UAS. Small UAS offer a unique, reliable and proven tool for U.S. and allied forces in this new threat environment. As such, we believe


49


Table of Contents

that small UAS will play an increasing role in transforming the U.S. military and that the armed forces of NATO and other U.S. allies represent significant growth opportunities.
 
We believe that the underlying demand for small UAS will continue to grow as customers continue to deploy them throughout their organizations and as new customers adopt this technology. The ability of small UAS to provide real-time visual information over long distances and into inaccessible areas in a relatively quick and efficient manner creates significant potential for a wide array of applications. Domestically, we expect the small UAS market to develop as non-military government agencies and commercial customers continue to explore the application of small UAS technology to a variety of needs, such as border surveillance and infrastructure monitoring. One example of a current non-military government customer for small UAS is the Federal Bureau of Investigation. In addition, small UAS are currently being tested for potential domestic application on the U.S.-Mexico border. We believe that potential commercial applications for small UAS include petrochemical infrastructure monitoring, natural disaster damage assessment and rescue operations, utility infrastructure inspection and aerial imaging.
 
PosiCharge Fast Charge Systems
 
Industrial vehicles, such as forklifts and airport ground support equipment, are employed throughout the world to facilitate the movement of physical goods. As many businesses increase their reliance on supply chain efficiency as part of their competitive strategy, the operating efficiency of these vehicles, which are an integral part of many supply chains, becomes increasingly important to them. We estimate that there are currently approximately 1.0 million electric industrial vehicles in North America, with over 100,000 new vehicles shipped in 2005. Over the past two decades, the market share for electric industrial vehicles has risen compared to internal combustion industrial vehicles as a result of their increased reliability and capability and lower operating cost, as well as the initiatives of more environmentally conscious companies and regulatory requirements for improved air quality in working environments.
 
Electric industrial vehicles are powered by large onboard batteries that can consume up to 17 cubic feet and weigh up to 3,500 pounds. Charging these batteries represents a significant cost and operational challenge to fleet operators because these batteries do not typically store enough energy to support continuous operation in a multiple shift environment. As a result, drivers must leave the work area when the battery reaches a low state of charge and drive to a dedicated battery changing room, which often occupies valuable floor space and is frequently located far from a driver’s work area. The driver or dedicated battery attendant must then remove the battery from the vehicle, place it on a storage rack, connect it to a conventional battery charger, identify a fully-charged battery, move it into the vehicle’s battery compartment and reconnect the battery to the motor before the driver may return to their work area. These battery changes, which take place every day in thousands of facilities around the world, result in reduced material movement and increased operating costs. Furthermore, the movement of large lead-acid batteries, which contain sulfuric acid, can result in employee injuries and hazardous chemical spillage.
 
Depending on the type of battery, conventional battery chargers can require up to eight hours to recharge the battery, which then must cool for up to an additional eight hours before it is ready to be used again. Consequently, depending on vehicle usage and the number of shifts in an operation, a fleet may require more than one battery per vehicle, which necessitates additional storage space, chargers and maintenance time. Moreover, the high levels of heat generated by conventional battery chargers during their normal use can cause excessive evaporation of the water contained in the battery and damage to the battery’s components. Over time, this evaporation of fluid and damage to components result in battery degradation and negatively affect the battery’s life.
 
Fast charge technology, which charges a battery with a high electrical current while the battery remains in the vehicle, eliminates the need for battery changing and the dedicated battery room. The earliest adopters of fast charge technology include the automotive, air transportation and food

Table of Contents

distribution markets. Large food and retail industry customers have also begun to utilize fast charge technology. There are numerous companies in North America, many of which manage large multi-location electric industrial vehicle fleets both within these markets and in others, such as the manufacturing and logistics markets, that have yet to widely adopt fast charge technology and represent a significant growth opportunity. We believe that the market for our PosiCharge fast charge systems will continue to grow as organizations that utilize electric vehicles seek to enhance their operational performance. In addition, we believe that the non-U.S. market offers significant opportunities for growth.
 
Our Solutions
 
Our solutions incorporate and expand upon our core technological capabilities and are intended to save lives, reduce costs, increase productivity and improve operational effectiveness. We believe that our products provide unique capabilities that had not previously existed, perform reliably and affordably, and help our customers operate more effectively. The high efficiency of our solutions relative to previously available alternatives contributes to their value and provides our customers a recurring economic and environmental benefit.
 
Small UAS
 
Our small UAS, including Raven, Dragon Eye, Swift, Wasp and Puma, are designed to provide valuable ISR, including real-time tactical reconnaissance, tracking, combat assessment and geographic data, directly to the warfighter, thereby increasing flexibility in mission planning and execution. Our small unmanned aircraft wirelessly transmit critical live video and other information generated by their payload of electro-optical or infrared sensors, enabling the operator to view and capture images, during the day or at night, on a hand-held ground control unit. All of our ground control units allow the operator to control the aircraft by programming it for GPS-based autonomous navigation using operator-designated way-points and, with the exception of Dragon Eye’s ground control unit, also provide for manual flight operation. These ground control units are designed for durability and ease of use in harsh environments and incorporate a user-friendly, intuitive graphical user interface. With the exception of Dragon Eye, all of our small unmanned aircraft operate from a common ground control unit.
 
All of our small UAS are designed to be man-portable, assembled without tools in less than five minutes and launched and operated by one person with minimal training. The efficient and reliable electric motors used in all of our small UAS are powered by replaceable modular battery packs that can be changed in seconds, enabling rapid return to flight during operations. All of our small UAS can be recovered through an autonomous landing feature that enables a controlled descent to a designated location. We expect that our future small UAS will include advanced payloads and data integration capabilities, enabling communications among numerous types of unmanned systems and between our small UAS and other assets on the ground.
 
In military applications, our systems enable tactical leaders to observe the next corner, intersection or ridgeline in real-time. This information facilitates faster, safer movement through urban and mountainous environments and can enable troops to act on intelligence rather than react to an attack. Moreover, by providing this information, our small UAS reduce the risk to warfighters and to the surrounding population by providing the ability to tailor the military response to the threat. U.S. military personnel regularly use our small UAS, such as Raven, for force protection, target acquisition, improvised explosive device detection and damage assessment missions. These reusable systems are easy to transport, assemble and operate and are relatively difficult to hear when flying at typical operational altitudes of 200 to 300 feet due to our efficient electric propulsion systems. In addition, their small size makes them difficult to see from the ground. Moreover, the low cost of our small UAS relative to larger UAS platforms makes it practical for warfighters to deploy these assets directly.

Our small UAS solutions also include spare equipment, alternative payload modules, batteries, chargers, repairs and Internet-enabled customer support. We provide training by our highly-skilled instructors, who typically have extensive military experience, and continuous refurbishment and repair services for our products. We currently maintain a forward operating depot in Iraq to support the large fleet of our small UAS deployed there. By maintaining close contact with our customers and users in the field, we gather critical feedback on our products and incorporate that information into ongoing product development and research and development efforts. This approach enables us to improve our solutions in response to, and in anticipation of, evolving customer needs.
 
We believe that, for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, sales of our small UAS accounted for a significant majority of the U.S. military’s small UAS purchases. For the fiscal years ended April 30, 2004, 2005 and 2006, sales of our UAS products and services accounted for 64%, 78% and 80% of our revenue, respectively. For the three-year period ended April 30, 2006, our UAS sales experienced a 91% compounded annual growth rate.
 
PosiCharge Fast Charge Systems
 
Developed from our innovative work on electric and hybrid electric vehicles and advanced battery systems in the 1990s, PosiCharge is an advanced system that eliminates battery changing. PosiCharge quickly and safely recharges industrial vehicle batteries while they are in the vehicle during regularly scheduled breaks and other times when the vehicle is not in use, thereby maintaining a sufficient level of energy throughout the workday. By eliminating battery changing, PosiCharge improves supply chain productivity by returning time to the vehicle operator to complete more work. Furthermore, because of its advanced efficient energy capabilities, PosiCharge can reduce the amount of electricity required to support electric industrial vehicles by several hundred dollars per year per vehicle as compared to conventional battery chargers. Many customers who implement PosiCharge in their facilities are able to re-purpose the battery changing room floor space for more productive activities and create a safer working environment, as drivers or battery attendants no longer need to exchange large, lead-acid batteries.
 
Developed over years of advanced battery testing and usage, PosiCharge’s proprietary battery charging algorithms, which are tailored to battery type, brand and size, maximize the rate at which energy is sent into the battery while minimizing heat generation and its damaging effects. We believe our work to develop these algorithms contributed to the major battery manufacturers offering battery warranties for fast charge, which provided a critical assurance to customers that fast charge systems would not harm their batteries. In combination with a weekly equalization charge that balances all the cells within the battery pack, our “intelligent” charging process enhances the performance of batteries and helps them to achieve improved operation. We believe that other fast charge and conventional charge systems, which lack our current and voltage regulating tailored charge algorithms and monitoring capabilities, may actually contribute to lower battery performance and lifespan over time, ultimately resulting in higher battery costs and degraded vehicle performance.
 
Our complete line of fast charge products enables us to design customized system solutions for each facility based on its shift schedule, workload, truck type and battery type. By customizing the system to unique customer requirements, we can help to reduce the cost of implementing and operating fast charge systems while maximizing the benefit of PosiCharge to our customers. Our complete solution consists of system configuration, installation, training, asset management and performance monitoring. Moreover, while fast charge technology itself provides significant operational and financial benefits to our customers, we believe that our ability to integrate the system effectively into customer operations through installation services, asset management capabilities and post-sale support increases the value proposition. We believe that this “turnkey” approach to the fast charge market represents a potential source of competitive advantage.
 
We project that PosiCharge customers typically begin to realize cost savings when compared to battery changing within the first twelve months of operation. Operators of large fleets of electric

industrial vehicles who use PosiCharge in multiple settings, including factories, distribution centers, cold storage facilities and airport tarmacs, include Ford Motor Company, SYSCO Corporation, Southwest Airlines and IKEA. For the fiscal years ended April 30, 2004, 2005 and 2006, sales of PosiCharge accounted for 19%, 15% and 14% of our revenue, respectively. For the three-year period ended April 30, 2006, our PosiCharge sales experienced a 48% compounded annual growth rate.
 
Our Strategy
 
We intend to grow our business by maintaining leadership in the growing markets for small UAS and fast charge systems and by creating new products that enable us to enter and lead new markets. Key components of this strategy include the following:
 
Expand our current solutions to existing and new customers.  Our small UAS and PosiCharge products and services are leaders in their respective North American markets. We intend to increase the penetration of our small UAS products within the U.S. military, the militaries of allied nations and non-military U.S. customers. We believe that the increased use of our small UAS in the U.S. military will be a catalyst for increased demand by allied countries, and that our efforts to pursue new applications will help to create non-military opportunities. We similarly intend to increase the penetration of PosiCharge to existing and new customers in North America and globally. Early adopters of PosiCharge are now deploying it in additional facilities throughout their enterprises while its adoption is increasing among new customers and new industry segments, such as food and logistics.
 
Deliver innovative solutions.  Innovation is the primary driver of our growth. We plan to continue research and development efforts to enable us to satisfy our customers through better, more capable products and services, both in response to and in anticipation of their needs. We believe that by continuing to invest in research and development, we will continue to deliver innovative, new products that address market needs within and outside of our current target markets, enabling us to create new opportunities for growth.
 
Foster our entrepreneurial culture and continue to attract, develop and retain highly-skilled personnel.  We have created a corporate culture that encourages innovation and an entrepreneurial spirit, which helps to attract highly-skilled professionals. We intend to nurture this culture to encourage the development of the innovative, highly technical solutions that give us our competitive advantage. A core component of our culture is the demonstration of trust and integrity in all of our interactions, contributing to a positive work environment and engendering trust among our customers.
 
Preserve our agility and flexibility.  We are able to respond rapidly to evolving markets and deliver new products and system capabilities quickly, efficiently and affordably. We believe that this ability helps us to strengthen our relationships with customers. We intend to maintain our agility and flexibility, which we believe to be important sources of differentiation when we compete against larger and better-funded competitors.

We follow a formal process to evaluate new ideas and inventions that ultimately includes review by an intellectual property and commercialization committee to determine if a technology, product or solution is commercially feasible. A fundamental part of this process of innovation is a well-defined screening process that helps business managers identify commercial opportunities that support current or desired technological capabilities. Similarly, we manage new product and business concepts through a rigorous commercialization process that governs spending, resources, time and intellectual property considerations. An important element of our commercialization process is ensuring that our technology and business development activities are strongly linked to customer needs in attractive growth markets. Throughout the process we revalidate our customer requirement assumptions to ensure that the products and services we ultimately deliver are of high value.
 
As a result of our commitment to research and development, we possess an extensive portfolio of intellectual property in the form of patents, trade secrets, copyrights and trademarks across a broad range of unmanned aircraft system and advanced energy technologies. As of July 29, 2006, we had 58 issued patents, 32 in-process patents and 38 patents pending disclosure. In many cases, we opt to protect our intellectual property through trade secrets as opposed to publication.
 
For the fiscal years ended April 30, 2004, 2005 and 2006, our internal research and development spending amounted to 4%, 9% and 12%, respectively, of our revenue, and customer-funded research and development spending amounted to an additional 36%, 10% and 8%, respectively, of our revenue.
 
Products and Services
 
We provide system solutions that typically include hardware, software, training, service, spare parts and ongoing support designed to help our customers operate more effectively and efficiently.

(1) Represents minimum customer-mandated specifications for all operating conditions. In optimal conditions, the performance of our products may significantly exceed these specifications.
 
Raven, Dragon Eye and Swift provide comparable flight durations, range, portability and payload capability. Dragon Eye, the first small UAS to win a U.S. military competitive bid program of record, was designed to meet the specifications of the U.S. Marine Corps, and led to the development of a SOCOM version called Swift.  Raven, a lighter UAS with increased capability, was subsequently developed for, and selected by, the U.S. Army and SOCOM as their designated small UAS. Recently, the U.S. Marines announced their intention to transition to Raven from Dragon Eye.
 
Wasp is the smallest of our products, providing maximum portability and the most rapid assembly and launch. Puma delivers the longest flight duration and greatest payload capacity in a larger configuration. Each of these new products was designed to address unique mission requirements identified through extensive and ongoing contact with our customers and users.
 
Maintenance and Operations.  We provide spare parts as well as repair, refurbishment and replacement services for damaged small UAS through our logistics operation. We designed our logistics operation to minimize supply chain delays and provide our customers with spare parts, replacement aircraft and support whenever and wherever they need them. We developed an Internet-accessible logistics system that provides our customers with the status of their returned products and their inventory that we help manage. This secure system also provides recent parts and repairs history and tracks usage data to enable inventory optimization forecasting. Our Simi Valley, California facility, which also serves as the primary depot for repairs and spare parts, is currently supplemented by a forward supply depot in Iraq. Through July 29, 2006, we succeeded in maintaining greater than 90% operational availability (percentage of time when a small UAS is available and ready for a mission) for the U.S. Army’s Raven fleet, as determined by the DoD. This support portion of our business continues to grow rapidly as the total number of hours that our small UAS are utilized increases. For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, our logistics operations accounted for 21% of our revenue.
 
Training.  We provide complete training services to support all of our small UAS. Our highly-skilled instructors typically have extensive military experience. We deploy training teams throughout the continental United States and abroad to support our customers’ wide variety of training needs on both production and development stage systems.

PosiCharge Fast Charge Systems
 
Our PosiCharge solutions include dedicated fast charge systems that support a heavy-duty vehicle from a single port, as well as multi-port fast charge systems that support as many as 16 vehicles at a time. By supporting multiple vehicles from a single building connection, and by amortizing the cost of the power conditioning component over multiple charge ports, we are able to reduce system cost to customers where this approach supports their fleet strategy.
 
PosiCharge ELT.  ELT, our original fast charge product, is designed to safely deliver the highest current (up to 600 amps) to electric forklifts, such as counterbalance or “sit-down” trucks, used in heavy-duty applications.
 
PosiCharge DVS.  Capable of charging either one vehicle at a time at up to 500 amps or two vehicles simultaneously at up to 320 amps each, DVS is designed to deliver lower up-front installation and ongoing utility costs when compared to other single vehicle fast chargers. Because DVS is a high-current, stand-alone system, it is capable of supporting a variety of specific charging needs, including isolated vehicles in remote areas, smaller fleets requiring smaller systems and heavy-duty applications with variable usage patterns.
 
PosiCharge MVS.  MVS, a multiple-port, multi-vehicle fast charge system, is designed for charging low-to-medium-duty electric industrial vehicles, such as pallet jacks, reach trucks and tow motors, in distribution, warehousing, and general manufacturing settings. Each system is capable of charging up to 16 vehicles at the same time and is designed to deliver greater cost-savings as the number of vehicles simultaneously charged increases, as compared to competitive charging systems, which are currently capable of charging only up to eight vehicles at the same time.
 
PosiCharge SVS.  A cost-effective fast charge solution for lower voltage, high-usage vehicles such as pallet jacks and tuggers, SVS has a compact footprint and provides up to 200 amps of current through its single port.
 
PosiCharge GSE.  Ruggedized for outdoor use in extreme weather conditions, GSE is designed to deliver all the benefits of our MVS product to the airport ground support equipment market.
 
Accessories.  In addition to fast charge systems, we offer a variety of accessories to help our customers integrate PosiCharge into their operations. Single point, automatic watering systems ensure that battery electrolyte is maintained at an optimal level and that watering occurs at the optimal time, thereby contributing to battery health and reducing labor costs associated with manual watering. Charge indicator lights provide fleet supervisors with color codes visible from a distance that indicate the status of the battery’s charge. Battery-mounted fans for use with the heaviest-duty types of vehicles keep these batteries cool to improve battery performance. Cable management options and charger stands provide customers the flexibility to install PosiCharge in the most accessible location.
 
Installation and Post-Sale Services.  We offer our customers installation services for all of our PosiCharge fast charge systems. In addition, we also offer service contracts, which we typically outsource to authorized service providers located in close proximity to our customers, and we provide 24-hour technical telephone support, technician dispatch and service coordination.
 
Energy Technology Center
 
Our Energy Technology Center provides contract engineering services to internal and external customers. In addition to generating revenue, these contract services enhance our technical skills and capabilities, enabling us to conduct internal research and development to support existing products and to create new products to satisfy new market needs. Our Energy Technology Center products include a line of advanced electric load and sink systems used to test batteries, electric motors and fuel cell systems.

Table of Contents

Contract Engineering Services.  We actively pursue internal and externally funded projects that help us to strengthen our technological capabilities. We submit bids to large research customers such as Lockheed Martin, the U.S. Air Force and the U.S. Army for projects that we believe have future commercial application. While these projects typically add to our operating margin, we are not seeking to grow this service offering at this time.
 
Power Processing Systems.  Our Power Processing Systems represent a mature product line of advanced electric load and sink systems that are used mainly by research and development organizations in the public and private sectors to test batteries, electric motors and fuel cell systems. Power Processing Systems customers include many of the world’s largest automotive manufacturers, including General Motors, as well as the U.S. government.
 
Research, Development and Commercialization Projects
 
One important aspect of our technology research and development activity is the development and commercialization of innovative solutions that we believe can become new products and open opportunities for us to enter large new markets or accelerate the growth of our current products. We invest in an active pipeline of these commercialization projects that range in maturity from technology validation to early market adoption. We cannot predict when, if ever, these projects will be successfully commercialized, or the level of capital expenditures they could require, which could be substantial. Four new products that we have been developing are described below.
 
Global Observer.  Global Observer is a high-altitude, long-endurance UAS under development to address the critical need for affordable, 24-hour, 365-days-a-year persistent communications and ISR. The product of years of research with both our own and U.S. government-sponsored development funding, we believe Global Observer to be the world’s first liquid hydrogen-powered UAS. The production configuration now under development is designed to operate at 65,000 feet for over a week between landings. We expect its extreme efficiency and endurance (three to four times the longest flight time of existing fixed-wing aerial options) to result in dramatically lower operating and total life cycle costs for missions where persistent communications or surveillance is critical. The Global Observer platform is intended to be the equivalent of a twelve-mile-high, low-cost, redeployable satellite, providing a footprint of coverage of up to 600 miles in diameter and capable of providing a broad array of services, including high-speed broadband data, video and voice relay and ISR. We expect these capabilities to provide the foundation for multiple high-value applications including communications relay and ISR missions for defense and homeland security, storm tracking, telecommunications infrastructure, wildfire detection/tracking and disaster recovery services.
 
Switchblade.  We are developing a hand-held, lethal small UAS with the ability to eliminate a target quickly and with minimal collateral damage through detonation of an onboard explosive. This system would be launched by a single individual and operated through our standard ground control unit. Switchblade is designed to allow the operator to identify a threat on the ground control unit, lock-on to it and neutralize it by triggering an autonomous terminal guidance phase. We believe that recent combat experience in urban environments indicates that such a capability would be of great value and could significantly improve the ability to neutralize hostile elements such as snipers, machine guns and mortar launchers.
 
Digital Data Link.  We are developing a robust, packet-switched, digital network module designed for extremely small size, weight, power and latency requirements that would enable it to operate on our small UAS. By switching to digital technology from the current analog technology employed in our small UAS, each small UAS will be enabled to operate as an IP-addressable node on a broad, wireless network facilitating the transmission of information between and among multiple small UAS, their operators and other remote parties. Other advantages of the switch to digital technology include reduced bandwidth usage for transmissions relative to analog transmissions, resulting in the ability to simultaneously operate more small UAS in closer proximity than was previously possible.

Architectural Wind.  Recognizing the limited options available for renewable energy generation in urban environments, our engineers and scientists are utilizing our high efficiency electric powertrain and propeller design capabilities to create a new type of wind energy system that can be installed on buildings. The result is Architectural Wind, a small, modular wind turbine designed to take advantage of wind over buildings to provide renewable electricity in a more cost-effective manner. Initial market exploration has revealed significant interest in this product, which has a visually compelling design.
 
Sales and Marketing
 
Our marketing strategy is to increase awareness of our brand among key target market segments and to associate AeroVironment with innovation, flexibility, agility and the ability to deliver new technology solutions that improve operational effectiveness. Our reputation for innovation is a key component of our brand and has been acknowledged through a variety of awards and recognized in numerous articles in domestic and international publications. We have registered the trademarks AeroVironment® and PosiCharge® and have submitted several other applications for trademark registration, including for AV, Global Observer and Architectural Wind.
 
Small UAS
 
We organize our U.S. small UAS business development team members by customer and product and have team members located in California, Colorado, Florida and Virginia, where they are in close proximity to customers they support. Supporting our business development team members are our program managers, who are organized by product and focus on designing optimal solutions and contract fulfillment, as well as internalizing feedback from customers and users. By maintaining assigned points of contact with our customers, we believe that we are able to enhance our relationships, service existing contracts effectively and gain vital feedback to improve our responsiveness and product offerings.
 
We are increasing our sales efforts abroad and have contracted with international sales representatives who now cover most of Australia, Canada, East Asia, Europe and the Middle East. Internationally, we have sold our small UAS in markets including Australia, France and Italy. For the fiscal years ended April 30, 2004, 2005 and 2006, domestic sales of our small UAS amounted to 93.6%, 97.6% and 99.7% of our UAS revenue, respectively.
 
PosiCharge Fast Charge Systems
 
We primarily sell our PosiCharge products through a dedicated, direct sales force whose members are located in Arizona, California, Georgia, Illinois, Michigan, New York, North Carolina, Tennessee and Texas to address their respective regions or industries efficiently. The sales team targets large entities with the potential for domestic and international enterprise adoption of our solutions. In addition to our direct customer sales, we also employ a regional sales team that coordinates distribution of PosiCharge systems through numerous battery dealers. These dealers’ relationships with, and proximity to, our customers’ facilities enable them to sell our solutions and provide post-sale service to our customers. We believe that these dealers are well suited to address the large number of smaller and geographically dispersed customers with industrial vehicle fleets. When evaluating a facility for its ability to benefit from PosiCharge, we perform a detailed analysis of the customer’s operations. This analysis allows us to quantify the benefit projected for a PosiCharge implementation, helping customers to determine for themselves if the business case is sufficiently compelling. For the fiscal years ended April 30, 2004, 2005 and 2006, domestic sales of PosiCharge amounted to 91.3%, 93.0% and 93.2% of our PosiCharge fast charge systems revenue, respectively.

Our backlog is comprised of funded and unfunded amounts provided in our contracts. We define funded backlog as unfilled firm orders for products and services for which funding currently is appropriated to us under the contract by the customer. We define unfunded backlog as the total remaining potential order amounts under indefinite delivery indefinite quantity, or IDIQ, contracts. Because of possible future changes in delivery schedules and/or cancellations of orders, backlog at any particular date is not necessarily representative of actual sales to be expected for any succeeding period, and actual sales for the year may not meet or exceed the backlog represented. As described under “Government Contracting Process,” IDIQs do not obligate the U.S. government to purchase goods or services.
 
As of July 29, 2006, our funded backlog was $79.8 million as compared to $60.7 million as of July 30, 2005. Of our funded backlog as of July 29, 2006, approximately 93% is expected to be delivered in this fiscal year.
 
Manufacturing and Operations
 
We pursue a common manufacturing strategy across our product lines, focusing on rapid prototyping, supply chain management, final assembly, quality systems and testing. Using concurrent engineering techniques within an integrated product team structure, we rapidly prototype design concepts and products to produce products at reduced cost and optimize our designs for manufacturing requirements, mission capabilities and customer specifications. Within this framework, we develop our products with feedback and input from manufacturing, supply chain management, key suppliers, logistics personnel and customers. We rapidly incorporate this feedback and input into the design before tooling is finalized and full-rate production begins. As a result, we believe that we can significantly reduce the time required to move a product from its design phase to full-rate production deliveries with high reliability, quality and yields.
 
We outsource certain production activities, such as the fabrication of structures and the manufacture of subassemblies and payloads, to qualified suppliers with whom we have long-term relationships. This outsourcing enables us to focus on final assembly and test processes for our products, ensuring high levels of quality and reliability. We believe that our efficient supply chain is a significant strength of our manufacturing strategy. We have forged strong relationships with our key suppliers that we believe will allow us to continue to grow our manufacturing capabilities and execute on our growth plans. We continue to expand upon our suppliers’ expertise to improve our existing products and develop new solutions. We rely on both single and multiple suppliers for certain components and subassemblies. All of our manufacturing operations incorporate quality programs and processes to increase acceptance rates, reduce lead times and lower cost.
 
UAS Manufacturing and Operations
 
We have successfully developed the manufacturing infrastructure to execute production of both new products at low initial rates and high-volume, full-rate production programs. For example, in 2003, we invested in the infrastructure necessary to transition from low-rate prototype small UAS production to full-rate production, successfully increasing production from 15 aircraft per month to 200 per month

in only six months to meet customer demand. By drawing upon experienced personnel from our PosiCharge and Energy Technology Center groups and levering our prior ISO certification, integrated supply chain strategy, document control systems, and process control methodologies into this new manufacturing effort, we laid the groundwork for a high volume, efficient production environment. Presently, our small UAS manufacturing is performed at our 85,000 square foot manufacturing facility established in 2005 in Simi Valley, California. This ISO 9001:2000 certified manufacturing facility, with over 150 employees, is currently producing approximately 200 aircraft per month and is designed to accommodate demand up to 1,000 aircraft per month.
 
PosiCharge Fast Charge Systems Manufacturing and Operations
 
We perform final assembly and testing of our PosiCharge fast charge systems at a 20,000 square foot, ISO 9001:2000 certified facility located in Monrovia, California. We designed this facility for flexibility, using a work cell model for final assembly, and have included fixtures optimized for final testing.
 
Employees
 
As of July 29, 2006, we had 447 full-time employees, of whom 134 were research and development/engineering, 43 were sales and marketing, 178 were operations and 92 were general and administrative. Of these employees, 134 have engineering degrees, 53 have advanced engineering degrees, and 85 have U.S. government security clearances. We believe that we have a good relationship with our employees.
 
Facilities
 
All of our facilities are leased. Our corporate headquarters are located in Monrovia, California where we lease approximately 13,000 square feet under an agreement expiring in September 2010. We have several other leased facilities in Monrovia that house our PosiCharge and Energy Technology Center businesses. These facilities have total square footage of approximately 50,000 square feet and leases that expire between the end of 2006 and 2010.
 
Our principal UAS facilities are located in Simi Valley, California. They consist of an 85,000 square foot research and development, manufacturing and logistics facility, the lease for which expires in 2009, and a 26,000 square foot dedicated research and development facility, the lease for which expires in late 2006.
 
We additionally have small leased offices in Florida, Hawaii, Texas and Virginia for training, business development and sales. We believe that our current leased facilities and additional or alternative space available to us will be adequate to meet our needs for the foreseeable future.
 
Competition
 
We believe that the principal competitive factors in the markets for our products and services include product performance, features, acquisition cost, lifetime operating cost, including maintenance and support, ease of use, integration with existing equipment, quality, reliability, customer support, brand and reputation.
 
The market for small UAS is evolving rapidly and subject to changing technologies, shifting customer needs and expectations and the potential introduction of new products. We believe that a number of established domestic and international defense contractors have developed or are developing small UAS that have and will continue to compete directly with our products. Some of these contractors have significantly more financial and other resources than we possess. Our current principal small UAS competitors include Advanced Ceramics Research, Inc., Applied Research Associates, Inc., Elbit Systems Ltd., L-3 Communications Holdings Inc. and Lockheed Martin Corporation. We do not view large UAS such as Northrop Grumman Corporation’s Global Hawk, General Atomics, Inc.’s Predator, The Boeing Company’s ScanEagle and AAI Corporation’s Shadow as direct competitors because they perform different missions and are not hand launched and controlled, although we cannot be certain that these platforms will not become direct competitors in the future.

Table of Contents

The primary direct competitors to PosiCharge are other fast charge suppliers, including Aker Wade Power Technologies LLC, Minit-Charger, a subsidiary of Edison International, and PowerDesigners, LLC. Some of the major industrial battery suppliers have begun to align themselves with fast charge suppliers, creating a potentially more significant source of competition.
 
In addition, PosiCharge competes against the traditional method of battery changing. Competitors in this area include suppliers of battery changing equipment and infrastructure, designers of battery changing rooms, battery manufacturers and dealers who may experience reduced sales volume because PosiCharge eliminates the need for extra batteries.
 
Regulation
 
Due to the fact that we contract with the DoD and other agencies of the U.S. government, we are subject to extensive federal regulations, including the Federal Acquisition Regulations, Defense Federal Acquisitions Regulations, Truth in Negotiations Act, Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, False Claims Act and the regulations promulgated under the DoD Industrial Security Manual, which establishes the security guidelines for classified programs and facilities as well as individual security clearances.
 
In addition, due to the nature of the products and services we provide, we are subject to further U.S. government regulation, including by the Federal Aviation Administration, which regulates airspace for all air vehicles, by the National Telecommunications and Information Administration and Federal Communications Commission, which regulate the wireless communications upon which our small UAS depend, and under the International Traffic in Arms Regulations, which regulate the export of controlled technical data, defense articles and defense services. The Federal Aviation Administration currently requires that small UAS comply with the rules for radio-controlled hobby aircraft that require small UAS to maintain flight altitude below 400 feet above the ground and the operator to maintain line of sight on the aircraft at all times it is in flight. The Federal Aviation Administration is in the process of drafting updated regulations specifically for small UAS operations in support of military, civil and/or commercial applications. These new regulations will affect the extent to which small UAS may be used for certain applications. We have engaged in discussions with the Federal Aviation Administration to help ensure that these new regulations allow for the maximum safe utilization of our small UAS.
 
Recently, the DCMA informed us that, under the terms of our DoD contracts, the government parties with whom we are contracting are required to obtain a certificate of authorization for flight tests of our small UAS outside of military installations. If our DoD customers are unable to obtain such a certificate, we may not be able to perform our flight tests without incurring the additional costs of transporting our small UAS products to military installations.
 
Certain of these regulations carry substantial penalty provisions, including suspension or debarment from government contracting or subcontracting for a period of time if we are found to be in violation. We carefully monitor all of our contracts and contractual efforts to minimize the possibility of any violation of these regulations.
 
Furthermore, our non-U.S. operations are subject to the laws and regulations of foreign jurisdictions, which may include regulations that are more stringent than those imposed by the U.S. government on our U.S. operations.
 
We are currently being audited by the DCMA with respect to our system for the care, control and accountability of government property. The DCMA has identified certain corrective actions to be taken with respect to our current system, which we are in the process of implementing.
 
Legal Proceedings
 
We are not currently a party to any material legal proceedings. We are, however, subject to lawsuits from time to time in the ordinary course of business.

GOVERNMENT CONTRACTING PROCESS
 
We sell the significant majority of our small UAS products and services as the prime contractor under contracts with the U.S. government. Certain important aspects of our government contracts are described below.
 
Bidding Process
 
We are awarded government contracts typically through a competitive bidding process. The U.S. government awards competitive-bid contracts based on proposal evaluation criteria established by the procuring agency. Competitive-bid contracts are awarded after a formal bid and proposal competition among providers. Interested contractors prepare a bid and proposal in response to the agency’s request for proposal or request for information. A bid and proposal is usually prepared in a short time period in response to a deadline and requires the extensive involvement of numerous technical and administrative personnel. Following award, competitive-bid contracts may be challenged by unsuccessful bidders.
 
Single and multiple award indefinite delivery indefinite quantity, or IDIQ, contracts are contract forms used to obtain commitments from contractors to provide certain products or services on pre-established terms and conditions. Under IDIQ contracts, the U.S. government issues task orders for specific services or products it needs and the contractor supplies products or services in accordance with the previously agreed terms. IDIQ contracts do not obligate the U.S. government to purchase goods or services. The competitive process to obtain task orders is limited to the pre-selected contractors. If the IDIQ contract has a single prime contractor, then the award of task orders is limited to that contractor. If the contract has multiple prime contractors, then the award of the task order is competitively determined among only those prime contractors. IDIQ contracts often have multi-year terms and unfunded ceiling amounts, therefore enabling but not committing the U.S. government to purchase substantial amounts of products and services from one or more contractors. In 2004 we became the sole provider under a five-year IDIQ contract to provide Raven to the U.S. Army. This contract provides for estimated purchases of up to $282.6 million, of which orders in the amount of $58.8 million had been placed with us as of July 29, 2006.
 
We are currently the sole provider under the only two programs of record established by the DoD for small UAS, a 2006 U.S. Army/SOCOM contract for Raven and a 2003 U.S. Marine Corps contract for Dragon Eye. As programs of record, these contracts have been made part of the five-year budget cycle, meaning that the amounts allocated for purchases under these contracts will be funded during the five-year cycle, absent affirmative action by these customers or Congress to change the budgeted amount.
 
Material Government Contract Provisions
 
The funding of U.S. government programs is subject to congressional appropriations. Although multi-year contracts may be authorized in connection with major procurements, Congress generally appropriates funds on a fiscal year basis, even though a program may continue for many years. Consequently, programs are often only partially funded initially, and additional funds are committed only as Congress makes further appropriations.
 
All contracts with the U.S. government contain provisions, and are subject to laws and regulations, that give the government rights and remedies not typically found in commercial contracts, including rights that allow the government to:
 
  •  terminate existing contracts for convenience, which affords the U.S. government the right to terminate the contract in whole or in part anytime it wants for any reason or no reason, as well as for default;
 
  •  reduce or modify contracts or subcontracts, if its requirements or budgetary constraints change;


62


Table of Contents

 
  •  cancel multi-year contracts and related orders, if funds for contract performance for any subsequent year become unavailable;
 
  •  claim rights in products and systems produced by its contractors if the contract is cost reimbursable and the contractor produces the products or systems during the performance of the contract;
 
  •  adjust contract costs and fees on the basis of audits completed by its agencies;
 
  •  suspend or debar a contractor from doing business with the U.S. government; and
 
  •  control or prohibit the export of products.
 
Generally, government contracts are subject to oversight audits by government representatives. Provisions in these contracts permit termination, in whole or in part, without prior notice, at the government’s convenience or upon contractor default under the contract. Compensation in the event of a termination, if any, is limited to work completed at the time of termination. In the event of termination for convenience, the contractor may receive a certain allowance for profit on the work performed.
 
Government Contract Categories
 
We have three types of government contracts, each of which involves a different payment methodology and level of risk related to the cost of performance. These basic types of contracts are typically referred to as fixed-price contracts, cost reimbursable contracts (including cost-plus-fixed fee, cost-plus-award fee, and cost-plus-incentive fee) and time-and-materials contracts.
 
Fixed-Price
 
These contracts are not subject to adjustment by reason of costs incurred in the performance of the contract. With this type of contract, we assume the risk that we will not be able to perform at a cost below the fixed-price, except for costs incurred because of contract changes ordered by the customer. Upon the U.S. government’s termination of a fixed-price contract, generally we would be entitled to payment for items delivered to and accepted by the U.S. government and, if the termination is at the U.S. government’s convenience, for payment of fair compensation for work performed plus the costs of settling and paying claims by any terminated subcontractors, other settlement expenses and a reasonable allowance for profit on the costs incurred.
 
Cost Reimbursable
 
Cost reimbursable contracts include cost-plus-fixed fee contracts, cost-plus-award fee contracts and cost-plus-incentive fee contracts. Under each type of contract, we assume the risk that we may not be able to recover costs if they are not allowable under the contract terms or applicable regulations, or if the costs exceed the contract funding.
 
  •  Cost-plus-fixed fee contracts are cost reimbursable contracts that provide for payment of a negotiated fee that is fixed at the inception of the contract. This fixed fee does not vary with actual cost of the contract, but may be adjusted as a result of changes in the work to be performed under the contract. This contract type poses less risk of loss than a fixed-price contract, but our ability to win future contracts from the procuring agency may be adversely affected if we fail to perform within the maximum cost set forth in the contract.
 
  •  A cost-plus-award fee contract is a cost reimbursable contract that provides for a fee consisting of a base amount (which may be zero) fixed at inception of the contract and an award amount, based upon the government’s satisfaction with the performance under the contract. With this type of contract, we assume the risk that we may not receive the award fee, or only a portion of it, if we do not perform satisfactorily.

Table of Contents

 
  •  A cost-plus-incentive fee contract is a cost reimbursable contract that provides for an initially negotiated fee to be adjusted later by a formula based on the relationship of total allowable costs to total target costs.
 
We typically experience lower profit margins and lower risk under cost reimbursable contracts than under fixed-price contracts. Upon the termination of a cost reimbursable contract, generally we would be entitled to reimbursement of our allowable costs and, if the termination is at the U.S. government’s convenience, a total fee proportionate to the percentage of work completed under the contract.
 
Time-and-Materials
 
Under a time-and-materials contract, our compensation is based on a fixed hourly rate established for specified labor or skill categories. We are paid at the established hourly rates for the hours we expend performing the work specified in the contract. Labor costs, overhead, general and administrative costs and profit are included in the fixed hourly rate. Materials, subcontractors, travel and other direct costs are reimbursed at actual costs plus an amount for material handling. We make critical pricing assumptions and decisions when developing and proposing time-and-materials labor rates. We risk reduced profitability if our actual costs exceed the costs incorporated into the fixed hourly labor rate. One variation of a standard time-and-materials contract is a time-and-materials, award fee contract. Under this type of contract, a positive or negative incentive can be earned based on achievement against specific performance metrics.

Option Grants in Last Fiscal Year
 
The following table sets forth information regarding grants of stock options to each of the named executive officers during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006. All options included on the table have


70


Table of Contents

an exercise price equal to no less than the fair market value of our common stock, as determined by our board of directors, on the date of grant.
 
Potential realizable value is based upon an assumed initial public offering price of our common stock of $      per share, the midpoint of the range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus. Potential realizable values are net of exercise prices, but before taxes associated with exercise. Amounts representing hypothetical gains are those that could be achieved if options are exercised at the end of the option term. The assumed 5% and 10% rates of stock price appreciation are provided in accordance with the rules of the SEC based on the assumed initial offering price and do not represent our estimate or projection of our future stock price. We cannot assure you that any of the values in the table will be achieved. Actual gains, if any, on stock option exercises will depend on the future performance of our common stock and overall stock market conditions.
 
The percentage of total options granted to our employees in the last fiscal year is based on options to purchase an aggregate of           shares of common stock granted under our equity incentive plans to our employees during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006.

Aggregate Option Exercises in Last Fiscal Year and Fiscal Year-End Option Values
 
The following table describes for the named executive officers the number and value of securities that they received upon exercise of options during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, and the number and value of securities underlying exercisable and unexercisable options held by them as of April 30, 2006. The value realized and the value of unexercised in-the-money options at April 30, 2006 are based on the assumed initial public offering price of $      per share less the per share exercise price, multiplied by the number of shares issued or issuable, as the case may be, upon exercise of the option.

Employee Benefit and Stock Plans
 
We currently have three plans pursuant to which we provide equity compensation to our employees, consultants and directors, the AeroVironment, Inc. Nonqualified Stock Option Plan, or Option Plan; the AeroVironment, Inc. 2002 Equity Incentive Plan, or Equity Plan; and the AeroVironment, Inc. Directors’ Nonqualified Stock Option Plan, or Directors Plan, and collectively with the Option Plan and the Equity Plan, the Prior Plans. In connection with this offering, we will be adopting a 2006 Equity Incentive Plan, or 2006 Plan. Upon adoption of the 2006 Plan, no further options will be


71


Table of Contents

granted under the Prior Plans. On July 29, 2006, options to purchase shares of our common stock remained outstanding under the Prior Plans.
 
2006 Plan
 
Prior to the completion of this offering, our board of directors and stockholders will approve the 2006 Plan. Once approved, the 2006 Plan will terminate on the earlier of ten years after stockholder approval or when the board of directors terminates the 2006 Plan. The 2006 Plan will provide for the grant of incentive stock options, or ISOs, as defined in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, nonstatutory stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, or SARs, deferred stock, dividend equivalent rights, performance awards and stock payments, which we collectively refer to as awards, to our employees, consultants and directors.
 
Share Reserve.  The 2006 Plan will reserve for issuance upon grant or exercise of awards up to           shares of our common stock. Once the 2006 Plan becomes subject to Section 162(m) of the Code, no more than           shares may be granted pursuant to awards which are intended to be performance based compensation within the meaning of Code Section 162(m) to any one participant in a twelve-month period. The shares subject to the 2006 Plan, the limitations on the number of shares that may be awarded under the 2006 Plan and shares and option prices subject to awards outstanding under the 2006 Plan will be adjusted as the plan administrator deems appropriate to reflect stock dividends, stock splits, combinations or exchanges of shares, mergers, consolidations, spin-offs, recapitalizations, or other distributions of Company assets. As of the date hereof, no shares of common stock or awards have been granted under the 2006 Plan.
 
Shares withheld for taxes, shares used to pay the exercise price of an option in a net exercise and shares tendered to us to pay the exercise price of an option or other award may be available for future grants of awards under the 2006 Plan. In addition, shares subject to stock awards that have expired, been forfeited or otherwise terminated without having been exercised may be subject to new awards. Shares issued under the 2006 Plan may be previously authorized but unissued shares or reacquired shares bought on the open market or otherwise.
 
Administration.  Generally, the compensation committee of our board will administer the 2006 Plan. However, with respect to awards made to our non-employee directors or to individuals subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, the full board will act as the administrator of the 2006 Plan. The compensation committee or the full board, as appropriate, has the authority to
 
  •  select the individuals who will receive awards;
 
  •  determine the type or types of awards to be granted;
 
  •  determine the number of awards to be granted and the number of shares to which the award relates;
 
  •  determine the terms and conditions of any award, including the exercise price and vesting;
 
  •  determine the terms of settlement of any award;
 
  •  prescribe the form of award agreement;
 
  •  establish, adopt or revise rules for administration of the 2006 Plan;
 
  •  interpret the terms of the 2006 Plan and any matters arising under the 2006 Plan; and
 
  •  make all other decisions and determinations as may be necessary to administer the 2006 Plan.
 
The compensation committee may delegate its authority to grant or amend awards with respect to participants other than senior executive officers, employees covered by Section 162(m) of the Code or the officers to whom the authority to grant or amend awards has been delegated.

The compensation committee, with the approval of the board, may also amend the 2006 Plan. Amendments to the 2006 Plan are subject to stockholder approval to the extent required by law, or The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC Marketplace Rules. Additionally, stockholder approval will be specifically required to increase the number of shares available for issuance under the 2006 Plan or to extend the term of an option beyond ten years.
 
Eligibility.  Awards under the 2006 Plan may be granted to individuals who are our employees or employees of our subsidiaries, our non-employee directors and our consultants and advisors. However, options which are intended to qualify as ISOs may only be granted to employees.
 
Awards.  The following will briefly describe the principal features of the various awards that may be granted under the 2006 Plan.
 
  •  Options — Options provide for the right to purchase our common stock at a specified price, and usually will become exercisable in the discretion of the compensation committee in one or more installments after the grant date. The option exercise price may be paid in cash, by check, shares of our common stock which have been held by the option holder for at least six months, other property with value equal to the exercise price, through a broker assisted cashless exercise or such other methods as the committee may approve from time to time. The committee may at any time substitute SARs for options granted under the 2006 Plan. Options may take two forms, nonstatutory options, or NSOs, and ISOs. ISOs will be designed to comply with the provision of the Code and will be subject to certain restrictions contained in the Code in order to qualify as ISOs. Among such restrictions, ISOs must:
 
  •  have an exercise price not less than the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant, or if granted to certain individuals who own or are deemed to own at least 10% of the total combined voting power of all of our classes of stock (10% stockholders), then such exercise price may not be less than 110% of the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant;
 
  •  be granted only to our employees and employees of our subsidiary corporations;
 
  •  expire within a specified time following the option holder’s termination of employment;
 
  •  be exercised within ten years after the date of grant, or with respect to 10% stockholders, five years after the date of grant; and
 
  •  not be first exercisable during any calendar year for more than $100,000 worth of our common stock, determined based on the exercise price at the time the option is granted.
 
No ISO may be granted under the 2006 Plan after ten years from the date the 2006 Plan is approved by our stockholders.
 
  •  Restricted Stock — A restricted stock award is the grant of shares of our common stock that, during a restricted period, is nontransferable and, unless otherwise determined by the compensation committee at the time of award, may be forfeited upon termination of employment or service. The committee shall determine in the award agreement whether the participant will be entitled to vote the shares of restricted stock and/or receive dividends on such shares.
 
  •  Stock Appreciation Rights — SARs provide for payment to the holder based upon increases in the price of our common stock over a set base price. Payment for SARs may be made in cash, our common stock or any combination of the two.
 
  •  Restricted Stock Units — Restricted stock units represent the right to receive shares of our common stock at a specified date in the future, subject to forfeiture of such right. If the restricted stock unit has not been forfeited, then on the date specified in the restricted stock award we will deliver to the holder of the restricted stock unit unrestricted shares of our common stock, which will be freely transferable.

Table of Contents

 
  •  Dividend Equivalents — Dividend equivalents represent the value of the dividends per share we pay, calculated with reference to the number of shares covered by an award (other than a dividend equivalent award) held by the participant.
 
  •  Performance Awards — Performance awards are denominated in shares of our common stock and are linked to satisfaction of performance criteria established by the compensation committee. If the committee determines that the award is intended to meet the requirements of “qualified performance based compensation” and therefore be deductible under Section 162(m) of the Code, then the performance criteria upon which the award will be based shall be with reference to any one or more of the following: net earnings (either before or after interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization), economic value-added (as determined by the committee), sales or revenue, net income (either before or after taxes), operating earnings, cash flow (including, but not limited to, operating cash flow and free cash flow), return on capital, return on assets (net or gross), return on stockholders’ equity, return on sales, gross or net profit margin, productivity, expense margins, operating efficiency, customer satisfaction, working capital, earnings per share, price per share, and market share, any of which may be measured either in absolute terms or as compared to any incremental increase or as compared to results of a peer group.
 
Change in Control.  All awards granted under the 2006 Plan will become exercisable in full upon the occurrence of a change in control (as defined in the 2006 Plan), unless the award is assumed by any successor in such change in control, or the award agreement otherwise provides. In connection with a change in control, the compensation committee may cause the awards to terminate but shall give the holder of the awards the right to exercise their outstanding awards or receive their other rights under the awards outstanding for some period of time prior to the change in control, even though the awards may not be exercisable or otherwise payable. Additionally, the committee may provide that all restrictions imposed on some or all shares of restricted stock or restricted stock units shall lapse.
 
Adjustment upon Certain Events.  The number and kind of securities subject to an award and the exercise price or base price may be adjusted at the discretion of the compensation committee to reflect any stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation, spin-off, recapitalization or other distribution (other than normal cash dividends) of our assets to stockholders, or other similar changes affecting the shares. In addition, upon such events the committee may provide for (1) the termination of any awards in exchange for cash equal to the amount the holder would otherwise be entitled to if they had exercised the award, (2) the full vesting, exercisability or payment of any award, (3) the assumption of such award by any successor, (4) the replacement of such award with other rights or property, (5) the adjustment of the number, type of shares and/or the terms and conditions of the awards which may be granted in the future or (6) the cessation of the ability of awards to vest or become exercisable or payable after such event.
 
Awards not Transferable.  Generally the awards may not be pledged, assigned or otherwise transferred other than by will or by laws of descent and distribution. The compensation committee may allow awards other than ISOs to be transferred for estate or tax planning purposes to members of the holder’s family, charitable institutions or trusts for the benefit of family members. In addition, the committee may allow awards to be transferred to so-called “blind trusts” by a holder of an award who is terminating employment in connection with the holder’s service with the government, an educational or other non-profit institution.
 
Miscellaneous.  As a condition to the issuance or delivery of stock or payment of other compensation pursuant to the exercise or lapse of restrictions on any award, we require participants to discharge all applicable withholding tax obligations. Shares held by or to be issued to a participant may also be used to discharge tax withholding obligations.
 
The 2006 Plan will expire and no further awards may be granted after the tenth anniversary of its approval by our stockholders or, if later, the approval by our board of directors.

Prior Plans
 
We currently have           options to purchase our common stock outstanding under the Prior Plans and have the ability to grant awards up to           additional shares reserved for issuance under the Prior Plans. The kind and number of shares of stock subject to the Prior Plans and the awards thereunder, and the exercise price of any option may be adjusted to reflect any changes in our capitalization due to reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, merger, consolidation, spin-off, combination, repurchase, liquidation, dissolution, sale, transfer or exchange of all or substantially all assets, issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase, or other similar events.
 
The Equity Plan provides for grants to employees, directors and consultants of options and restricted stock. The Option Plan provides for grants of options to employees and the Directors Plan provides for grants of options to directors. At this time only options remain outstanding under the Prior Plans. The Prior Plans are currently administered by our board, but following the consummation of this offering the compensation committee of the board will have responsibility for administering the Prior Plans. Upon a change in control, all options granted under the Prior Plans will either be assumed by any successor or if not so assumed, will fully vest and become exercisable.
 
Our board has the right to amend and terminate the Prior Plans. In connection with the adoption of the 2006 Plan, our board will terminate the Prior Plans. Upon such termination no further options or stock purchase rights may be granted under the Prior Plans, although any options previously granted will remain outstanding and exercisable in accordance with their terms.
 
401(k) Plan
 
We sponsor a tax-qualified employee savings and retirement plan, or 401(k) plan, that covers all eligible employees. Under the plan, highly-compensated employees may contribute up to 20% of their cash compensation and non-highly-compensated employees may contribute up to 25% of their cash compensation. We provide matching payments of up to 5.75% of individual employee’s contributions on a dollar-for-dollar basis for fiscal years in which we are profitable and on a fifty cents on the dollar basis for fiscal years in which we are not profitable. Our expenses related to this plan amounted to $673,000, $724,000 and $918,000 for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively.
 
Retiree Medical Plan
 
We sponsor participation in a third-party provided retiree medical plan by the Chairman of our board of directors and our Chief Executive Officer. This plan will provide supplemental medical coverage for each of the participants and their spouses. Coverage under the plan will be effective for each of the participants upon their retirement.
 
Pension Plan
 
On August 19, 2005, we established a supplemental executive retirement plan for the benefit of Dr. MacCready, our Founder and the Chairman of our board of directors. Pursuant to the terms of this plan, in the event that Dr. MacCready retires between July 1, 2006 and July 1, 2007, he will be entitled to receive an annual retirement benefit payable by us in the amount of $200,000. The amount of the annual retirement benefit payable to Dr. MacCready is subject to annual cost of living increases based upon the Consumer Price Index. This plan will terminate automatically upon completion of this offering without any payment to Dr. MacCready.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
 
Other than compensation agreements and other arrangements which are described as required in “Management” and the transactions described below, since May 1, 2003, there has not been, and there is not currently proposed, any transaction or series of similar transactions to which we were or will be a party in which:
 
  •  the amount involved exceeded or will exceed $60,000; and
 
  •  a director, executive officer, holder of 5% or more of any class of our capital stock or any member of their immediate family had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.
 
All of the transactions set forth below were approved by a majority of the board of directors, including a majority of the independent and disinterested members of the board of directors. We believe that we have executed all of the transactions set forth below on terms no less favorable to us than we could have obtained from unaffiliated third parties. It is our intention to ensure that all future transactions between us and our officers, directors and principal stockholders and their affiliates, are approved by a majority of the board of directors, including a majority of the independent and disinterested members of the board of directors, and are on terms no less favorable to us than those that we could obtain from unaffiliated third parties.
 
Limitation of Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors
 
As permitted by Section 102 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, we intend to adopt provisions to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws which limit or eliminate the personal liability of our directors for a breach of their fiduciary duty of care as directors. The duty of care generally requires that when acting on behalf of the corporation, directors exercise an informed business judgment based on all material information reasonably available to them. Consequently, a director will not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages or breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability for:
 
  •  any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders;
 
  •  any act or omission not in good faith or that involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
 
  •  any act related to unlawful stock repurchases, redemptions or other distributions or payment of dividends; or
 
  •  any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
 
These limitations of liability, which will be effective upon our reincorporation in Delaware, do not alter liability under the federal securities laws and do not affect the availability of equitable remedies such as injunction or rescission. As permitted by Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws will authorize us to indemnify our officers, directors and other agents to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law and provide that:
 
  •  we may indemnify our directors, officers and employees to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, subject to limited exceptions;
 
  •  we may advance expenses to our directors, officers and employees in connection with a legal proceeding to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, subject to limited exceptions; and
 
  •  the rights provided in our bylaws are not exclusive.
 
Contemporaneous with the completion of this offering, we intend to enter into indemnification agreements with each of our executive officers and directors which will be in addition to and may be broader than the indemnification provided for in our charter documents. These agreements will provide


76


Table of Contents

that we will indemnify each of our directors to the fullest extent permitted by law and advance expenses to each indemnitee in connection with any proceeding in which indemnification is available.
 
We also maintain general liability insurance that covers certain liabilities of our directors and officers arising out of claims based on acts or omissions in their capacities as directors or officers and intend to obtain a policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance that will be effective upon completion of this offering which will also cover certain liabilities arising under the Securities Act. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers, or persons controlling the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
 
These provisions may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against our directors for breach of their fiduciary duty. These provisions may also have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors and officers, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit us and our stockholders. Furthermore, a stockholder’s investment may be adversely affected to the extent we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers pursuant to these indemnification provisions. We believe that these provisions, the indemnification agreements and the insurance are necessary to attract and retain talented and experienced directors and officers.
 
At present, there is no pending litigation or proceeding involving any of our directors, officers, employees or agents in which any of them is seeking indemnification from us, nor are we aware of any threatened litigation or proceeding that may result in a claim for indemnification.
 
Transactions with Officers and Directors
 
On July 29, 2004, we entered into a voting agreement with certain of our stockholders, including the P. and J. MacCready Living Trust (Restated), of which Dr. Paul B. MacCready, our Founder and the Chairman of our board of directors, is the trustee, and the Whiting Family Limited Partnership, of which our Chief Executive Officer, Timothy E. Conver, is a limited partner. Pursuant to this agreement, the stockholders named above agreed to vote their shares of our common stock as directed by the Whiting Family Limited Partnership. This agreement will terminate automatically upon completion of this offering.
 
On November 1, 2005, we entered into a consulting agreement with one of our directors, Charles R. Holland. Pursuant to this agreement, Mr. Holland performs consulting services for us on a general basis and with respect to particular individual projects assigned by us. During the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006 and the three months ended July 29, 2006, we paid to Mr. Holland approximately $258,000 and $53,000, respectively, in consulting fees pursuant to the terms of this agreement. On February 1, 2004, we entered a similar consulting agreement with Mr. Holland, pursuant to which we paid Mr. Holland consulting fees of approximately $34,000 and $242,000 during the fiscal years ended April 30, 2004 and 2005, respectively.
 
In June 2004, we provided a loan to our Chief Executive Officer, Timothy E. Conver, in the amount of $599,357 to facilitate the exercise of certain stock options held by Mr. Conver. The principal balance plus accrued interest was repaid in full in April 2005.

PRINCIPAL AND SELLING STOCKHOLDERS
 
The following table sets forth information about the beneficial ownership of our common stock at July 29, 2006 and as adjusted to reflect the sale of the shares of common stock in this offering, for:
 
  •  each person, or group of affiliated persons known to us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our common stock;
 
  •  each of our named executive officers;
 
  •  each of our directors;
 
  •  all of our executive officers and directors as a group; and
 
  •  each selling stockholder.
 
Unless otherwise noted below, the address of each beneficial owner listed on the table is c/o AeroVironment, Inc., 181 W. Huntington Drive, Suite 202, Monrovia, CA 91016.
 
We have determined beneficial ownership in accordance with the rules of the SEC. Except as indicated by the footnotes below, we believe, based on the information furnished to us, that the persons and entities named in the tables below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock that they beneficially own, subject to applicable community property laws.
 
We have based our calculation of the percentage of beneficial ownership on 1,935,289 shares of common stock outstanding on July 29, 2006 and           shares of common stock outstanding upon completion of this offering, the latter of which includes an aggregate of           shares of common stock to be sold by certain selling stockholders in this offering that will be issued upon the exercise of outstanding options. In computing the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, we deemed outstanding shares of common stock subject to options held by that person that are currently exercisable or exercisable as of September 27, 2006, which is 60 days after July 29, 2006. We did not deem these shares outstanding, however, for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Beneficial ownership representing less than 1% is denoted with an asterisk (*). Please see “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions” for a description of the material relationships between us and the selling stockholders.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
 
Upon completion of this offering, after giving effect to filing of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, our authorized capital stock will consist of           shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, and           shares of undesignated preferred stock. The following description summarizes some of the terms of our capital stock. Because it is only a summary, it does not contain all the information that may be important to you. For a complete description, you should refer to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws, copies of which have been filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which the prospectus is a part.
 
We plan to reincorporate in the state of Delaware prior to this offering. The following description of our capital stock gives effect to the reincorporation and the related changes in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws.
 
Common Stock
 
On July 29, 2006, there were           shares of common stock outstanding, held of record by 41 stockholders. After this offering, there will be           shares of our common stock outstanding.
 
The holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders, including the election of directors, and do not have cumulative voting rights. Accordingly, the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock entitled to vote in any election of directors can elect all of the directors standing for election if they so choose, subject to the rights of any preferred stockholders. Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any then-outstanding preferred stock, holders of common stock are entitled to receive ratably those dividends, if any, as may be declared by our board of directors out of legally available funds. Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of common stock will be entitled to share ratably in the net assets legally available for distribution to stockholders after the payment of all of our debts and other liabilities of our company, subject to the prior rights of any preferred stock then outstanding. Holders of common stock have no preemptive or conversion rights or other subscription rights and there are no redemption or sinking funds provisions applicable to the common stock. All outstanding shares of common stock are, and the common stock to be outstanding upon completion of this offering will be, fully paid and nonassessable.
 
Preferred Stock
 
Following the offering, our board of directors will have the authority, without any action by the stockholders, to issue from time to time up to           shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the number of shares, designations, preferences, powers, and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and the qualifications or restrictions thereof. The preferences, powers, rights and restrictions of different series of preferred stock may differ with respect to dividend rates, amounts payable on liquidation, voting rights, conversion rights, redemption provisions, sinking fund provisions, and purchase funds and other matters. The issuance of preferred stock could decrease the amount of earnings and assets available for distribution to holders of common stock or adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting rights, of the holders of common stock, and may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our company. Holders of shares of preferred stock may be entitled to receive a preference payment in the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding-up before any payment is made to the holders of shares of common stock. The existence of authorized but unissued preferred stock may enable our board of directors to render more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise. For example, if in the due exercise of its fiduciary obligations, our board of directors were to determine that a takeover proposal is not in our best interests, then our board of directors could cause shares of preferred stock to be issued without stockholder approval in one or more private offerings or other transactions that might dilute the voting or other rights of the proposed


80


Table of Contents

acquirer or insurgent stockholder or stockholder group. Upon consummation of this offering, there will be no shares of preferred stock outstanding and we have no present intention to issue any shares of preferred stock.
 
Anti-Takeover Effects of Provisions of Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, Our Amended and Restated Bylaws and Delaware Law
 
Some provisions of Delaware law and our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, as amended and restated prior to the closing of this offering in connection with our reincorporation in Delaware, will contain provisions that could make the following transactions more difficult, including acquisition of us by means of a tender offer, acquisition of us by means of a proxy contest or otherwise or removal of our incumbent officers and directors.
 
These provisions, summarized below, are expected to discourage coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids. These provisions also are designed to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to first negotiate with our board of directors. We believe that the benefits of increased protection of our potential ability to negotiate with the proponent of an unfriendly or unsolicited proposal to acquire or restructure us outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging these proposals because negotiation of these proposals could result in an improvement of their terms.
 
Undesignated Preferred Stock
 
The ability to authorize undesignated preferred stock will make it possible for our board of directors to issue preferred stock with voting or other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to change the control of our company. These and other provisions may have the effect of deferring hostile takeovers or delaying changes in control or management of our company.
 
Stockholder Meetings
 
Our charter documents will provide that a special meeting of stockholders may be called only by our chairman of the board or president, or by the president or secretary at the request in writing by a majority of our board of directors.
 
Requirements for Advance Notification of Stockholder Nominations and Proposals
 
Our amended and restated bylaws will establish advance notice procedures with respect to stockholder proposals and the nomination of candidates for election as directors, other than nominations made by or at the direction of our board of directors or a committee of our board of directors.
 
Elimination of Stockholder Action by Written Consent
 
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will eliminate the right of stockholders to act by written consent without a meeting.
 
Election and Removal of Directors
 
Our board of directors will be divided into three classes. The directors in each class will serve for a three-year term, one class being elected each year by our stockholders. For more information on the classified board, see “Management — Board Composition.” This system of electing and removing directors may tend to discourage a third party from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us, because it generally makes it more difficult for stockholders to replace a majority of the directors.

Delaware Anti-Takeover Statute
 
We plan to reincorporate in Delaware prior to the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. Once we reincorporate in Delaware, we will be subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law which prohibits persons deemed “interested stockholders” from engaging in a “business combination” with a Delaware corporation for three years following the date these persons become interested stockholders. Generally, an “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns, or within three years prior to the determination of interested stockholder status did own, 15% or more of a corporation’s voting stock. Generally, a “business combination” includes a merger, asset or stock sale, or other transaction resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder. The existence of this provision may have an anti-takeover effect with respect to transactions not approved in advance by our board of directors.
 
Amendment of Charter Provisions
 
The amendment of any of the above provisions, except for the provision making it possible for our board of directors to issue preferred stock, would require approval by holders of at least 662/3% of our then-outstanding common stock. The provisions of Delaware law, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws could have the effect of discouraging others from attempting hostile takeovers and, as a consequence, they also may inhibit temporary fluctuations in the market price of our common stock that often result from actual or rumored hostile takeover attempts. These provisions also may have the effect of preventing changes in our management. It is possible that these provisions could make it more difficult to accomplish transactions that stockholders may deem otherwise to be in their best interests.

Nasdaq Global Market Listing
 
We intend to apply to have our common stock approved for listing on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “AVAV.”

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
 
Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for our common stock. Future sales of our common stock in the public market, or the availability of such shares for sale in the public market, could adversely affect market prices prevailing from time to time. As described below, only a limited number of shares will be available for sale shortly after this offering due to contractual and legal restrictions on resale. Nevertheless, sales of our common stock in the public market after such restrictions lapse, or the perception that those sales may occur, could adversely affect the prevailing market price at such time and our ability to raise equity capital in the future.
 
Sales of Restricted Shares
 
Upon completion of this offering, we will have           shares of common stock outstanding, assuming the issuance of           shares of common stock offered hereby and the issuance of an aggregate of           shares of common stock upon exercise of outstanding options that will be sold by certain selling stockholders in this offering and no other exercise of options after July 29, 2006. Of these shares, the shares sold in this offering, plus any additional shares sold upon exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option, will be freely transferable without restriction under the Securities Act, unless they are held by our “affiliates” as that term is used under the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The remaining           shares of common stock held by existing stockholders are restricted shares. Restricted shares may be sold in the public market only if registered or if they qualify for an exemption from registration under Rules 144 or 701 promulgated under the Securities Act, which rules are summarized below.
 
As a result of the lock-up agreements described below and the provisions of Rule 144, Rule 144(k) and Rule 701 under the Securities Act, the shares of our common stock (excluding the shares sold in this offering) that will be available for sale in the public market are as follows:
 
  •             shares will be eligible for immediate sale on the date of this prospectus;
 
  •             shares will be eligible for sale 90 days after the date of this prospectus;
 
  •             shares will be eligible for sale upon the expiration of the lock-up agreements, as more particularly and except as described below, beginning 180 days after the date of this prospectus; and
 
  •  the remaining           restricted shares will be eligible for sale from time to time thereafter upon expiration of their respective one-year holding periods.
 
Lock-up Agreements
 
We, each of our directors and executive officers, the selling stockholders and certain of our other stockholders, who collectively own           shares of our common stock, based on shares outstanding as of July 29, 2006, have agreed that, without the prior written consent of Goldman, Sachs & Co. on behalf of the underwriters, we and they will not, subject to limited exceptions, during the period ending 180 days after the date of this prospectus, subject to extension in specified circumstances:
 
  •  offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of our common stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for common stock; or
 
  •  enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of our common stock, whether any transaction described above is to be settled by delivery of our common stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise.


83


Table of Contents

 
This 180-day period may be extended if (1) during the last 17 days of the 180-day period we issue an earnings release or material news or a material event relating to us occurs; or (2) prior to the expiration of the 180-day period, we announce that we will release earnings results during the 16-day period beginning on the last day of the 180-day period. The period of such extension will be 18 days, beginning on the issuance of the earnings release or the occurrence of the material news or material event.
 
Any determination to release any shares subject to the lock-up agreements would be made on a case-by-case basis based on a number of factors at the time of determination, including the market price of the common stock, the liquidity of the trading market for the common stock, general market conditions, the number of shares proposed to be sold and the timing, purpose and terms of the proposed sale. Goldman, Sachs & Co., on behalf of the underwriters, may in its sole discretion and at any time without notice release some or all of the shares subject to lock-up agreements prior to the expiration of the 180-day period. See “Underwriting.”
 
In addition, stockholders who collectively own           shares of our outstanding common stock, as of July 29, 2006, have agreed to a similar lock-up arrangement with us.
 
We do not currently expect any release of shares subject to lock-up agreements prior to the expiration of the applicable lock-up periods. Upon the expiration of the applicable lock-up periods, substantially all of the shares subject to such lock-up restrictions will become eligible for sale, subject to the limitations discussed above.
 
Rule 144
 
In general, under Rule 144 as in effect on the date of this prospectus, beginning 90 days after the date of this offering, our affiliates, or a person (or persons whose shares are aggregated) who has beneficially owned restricted shares (as defined under Rule 144) for at least one year, is entitled to sell within any three-month period a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of one percent of the then outstanding shares of common stock or the average weekly trading volume of the common stock on the Nasdaq Global Market during the four calendar weeks immediately preceding the date on which notice of the sale is filed with the SEC. Sales under Rule 144 are subject to requirements relating to the manner of sale, notice, and the availability of current public information about us.
 
Rule 144(k)
 
A person (or persons whose shares are aggregated) who was not our affiliate at any time during the 90 days immediately preceding the sale and who has beneficially owned restricted shares for at least two years is entitled to sell such shares under Rule 144(k) without regard to the limitations described above.
 
Rule 701
 
In general, under Rule 701 of the Securities Act as currently in effect, any of our directors, employees, consultants or advisors who purchased shares from us in connection with a compensatory stock or option plan or written employment agreement is eligible to resell such shares 90 days after the date of the offering in reliance on Rule 144 by complying with the applicable requirements of Rule 144 of the Securities Act other than the holding period conditions. In addition, non-affiliates may sell Rule 701 shares without complying with the public information, volume and notice provisions of Rule 144. On the date 90 days after the effective date of this offering, options to purchase approximately           shares of our common stock will be vested and exercisable and upon exercise and after expiration of the lock-up restrictions described above, may be sold pursuant to Rule 701 of the Securities Act.

Equity Incentive Plans
 
We intend to file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-8 under the Securities Act to register shares of our common stock that we may issue upon exercise of outstanding options issued or reserved for issuance under our Nonqualified Stock Option Plan, Directors’ Nonqualified Stock Option Plan, 2002 Equity Incentive Plan and 2006 Equity Incentive Plan. The registration statement is expected to be filed and become effective as soon as practicable after the completion of this offering. Accordingly, shares registered under the registration statement will be available for sale in the open market following its effective date, unless such shares are subject to vesting restrictions, Rule 144 volume limitations or the 180-day lock-up arrangement described above, if applicable.

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.

The company and its officers, directors, and holders of substantially all of the company’s common stock, including the selling stockholders, have agreed with the underwriters, subject to certain exceptions, not to dispose of or hedge any of their 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, except with the prior written consent of the representative. This agreement does not apply to any existing employee benefit plans. See “Shares Available for Future Sale” for a discussion of certain transfer restrictions.


86


Table of Contents

These restrictions do not apply to:
 
  •  the sale of shares to the underwriters;
 
  •  the issuance by the company of shares of its common stock upon the exercise of an option or a warrant or the conversion of a security outstanding on the date of this prospectus of which the underwriters have been advised in writing;
 
  •  the entry by the company’s directors or executive officers into written trading plans designed to comply with Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act, provided that no sales or other dispositions may occur under such plans until the expiration of the restricted period;
 
  •  transactions relating to shares of common stock or other securities acquired in open market transactions after the completion of this offering;
 
  •  the sale or transfer by a stockholder of shares of common stock or any security convertible into common stock to the company upon termination of such stockholder’s employment with the company;
 
  •  the sale or transfer of shares of common stock to pay the exercise price of options to purchase common stock pursuant to the cashless exercise feature of such options;
 
  •  transfers by a stockholder to a trust, all of the beneficial interests of which are held, directly or indirectly, by such stockholder; or
 
  •  transfers of shares or any security convertible into common stock as a bona fide gift;
 
provided that, in the case of the last two bullet points, each recipient agrees to accept the restrictions described in the immediately preceding paragraph and, in the case of each of the last six transactions, no filing under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act reporting a reduction in beneficial ownership of shares of common stock is required in connection with these transactions during the 180-day period.
 
The 180-day restricted period described in the preceding paragraph will be automatically extended if: (1) during the last 17 days of the 180-day restricted period the company issues an earnings release or announces material news or a material event; or (2) prior to the expiration of the 180-day restricted period, the company announces that it will release earnings results during the 15-day period following the last day of the 180-day period, in which case the restrictions described in the preceding paragraph will continue to apply until the expiration of the 18-day period beginning on the issuance of the earnings release or the announcement of the material news or material event.
 
Prior to the offering, there has been no public market for the shares. The initial public offering price will be negotiated among the company and the representatives. Among the factors to be considered in determining the initial public offering price of the shares, in addition to prevailing market conditions, will be the company’s historical performance, estimates of the business potential and earnings prospects of the company, an assessment of the company’s management and the consideration of the above factors in relation to market valuation of companies in related businesses.
 
The company intends to apply to have the common stock approved for listing on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “AVAV.”
 
In connection with the offering, the underwriters may purchase and sell shares of common stock in the open market. These transactions may include short sales, stabilizing transactions and purchases to cover positions created by short sales. Shorts 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 the selling stockholders 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


87


Table of Contents

market as compared to the price at which they may purchase additional shares pursuant to the option granted to them. “Naked” short sales are any sales in excess of such 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 various bids for or purchases of common stock made by the underwriters in the open market prior to the completion of the offering.
 
The underwriters may also 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 representative has repurchased shares sold by or for the account of such underwriter in stabilizing or short covering transactions.
 
Purchases to cover a short position and stabilizing transactions, as well as other purchases by the underwriters for their own accounts, may have the effect of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the company’s stock, and together with the imposition of the penalty bid, may stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the common stock. As a result, the price of the 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 at any time. These transactions may be effected on the Nasdaq Global Market or relevant exchange, in the over-the-counter market or otherwise.
 
Each of the underwriters has represented and agreed that:
 
(a) it has not made or will not make an offer of shares to the public in the United Kingdom within the meaning of section 102B of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (as amended) (FSMA) except to legal entities which are authorized or regulated to operate in the financial markets or, if not so authorized or regulated, whose corporate purpose is solely to invest in securities or otherwise in circumstances which do not require the publication by the company of a prospectus pursuant to the Prospectus Rules of the Financial Services Authority (FSA);
 
(b) it has only communicated or caused to be communicated and will only communicate or cause to be communicated an invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (within the meaning of section 21 of FSMA) to persons who have professional experience in matters relating to investments falling within Article 19(5) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Financial Promotion) Order 2005 or in circumstances in which section 21 of FSMA does not apply to the company; and
 
(c) it has complied with, and will comply with all applicable provisions of FSMA with respect to anything done by it in relation to the shares in, from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom.

(c) in any other circumstances which do not require the publication by the company of a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive.
 
For the purposes of this provision, the expression an “offer of shares to the public” in relation to any shares in any Relevant Member State means the communication in any form and by any means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and the shares to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe the shares, as the same may be varied in that Relevant Member State by any measure implementing the Prospectus Directive in that Relevant Member State and the expression Prospectus Directive means Directive 2003/71/EC and includes any relevant implementing measure in each Relevant Member State.
 
The shares may not be offered or sold by means of any document other than (i) in circumstances which do not constitute an offer to the public within the meaning of the Companies Ordinance (Cap. 32, Laws of Hong Kong), or (ii) to “professional investors” within the meaning of the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Cap. 571, Laws of Hong Kong) and any rules made thereunder, or (iii) in other circumstances which do not result in the document being a “prospectus” within the meaning of the Companies Ordinance (Cap. 32, Laws of Hong Kong), and no advertisement, invitation or document relating to the shares may be issued or may be in the possession of any person for the purpose of issue (in each case whether in Hong Kong or elsewhere), which is directed at, or the contents of which are likely to be accessed or read by, the public in Hong Kong (except if permitted to do so under the laws of Hong Kong) other than with respect to shares which are or are intended to be disposed of only to persons outside Hong Kong or only to “professional investors” within the meaning of the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Cap. 571, Laws of Hong Kong) and any rules made thereunder.

Accordingly, this prospectus and any other document or material in connection with the offer or sale, or invitation for subscription or purchase, of the shares may not be circulated or distributed, nor may the shares be offered or sold, or be made the subject of an invitation for subscription or purchase, whether directly or indirectly, to persons in Singapore other than (i) to an institutional investor under Section 274 of the Securities and Futures Act, Chapter 289 of Singapore (the “SFA”), (ii) to a relevant person, or any person pursuant to Section 275(1A), and in accordance with the conditions, specified in Section 275 of the SFA or (iii) otherwise pursuant to, and in accordance with the conditions of, any other applicable provision of the SFA.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
AeroVironment, Inc. and Subsidiaries
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of AeroVironment, Inc. and subsidiaries as of April 30, 2005 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended April 30, 2006. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 16. These consolidated financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (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. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of AeroVironment, Inc. and subsidiaries at April 30, 2005 and 2006, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended April 30, 2006, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
 
April 30, 2006
 
1.   Organization and Significant Accounting Policies
 
Organization
 
AeroVironment, Inc., a California corporation, is engaged in design, development and production of unmanned aircraft systems and energy technologies for various industries and governmental agencies.
 
Significant Accounting Policies
 
Basis of Consolidation
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of AeroVironment, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries: AV S.r.l., Skytower, LLC, Skytower Inc., AILC, Inc. and Regenerative Fuel Cell Systems, LLC (collectively referred to herein as the “Company”). AV S.r.l. was created during the year ended April 30, 2006, to enable customer support efforts in Italy and future business development in Europe; no sales were recorded in the year ended April 30, 2006. Skytower, LLC, Skytower Inc., AILC, Inc. and Regenerative Fuel Cell Systems, LLC had no operations during the years ended April 30, 2004, 2005 and 2006. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
Segments
 
The Company’s products are sold and divided among three reportable segments, as defined by SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, to reflect the Company’s strategic goals. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s CODM is the Chief Executive Officer who reviews the revenue and gross margin results for each of these segments in making decisions about allocating resources, including the focus of research and development activities, and assessing performance. The Company’s reportable segments are business units that offer different products and services and are managed separately.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions, including estimates of anticipated contract costs and revenue utilized in the revenue recognition process, that affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Cash Equivalents
 
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. The Company invests its excess cash primarily in money market funds and certificates of deposit of major financial institutions. Accordingly, these instruments are subject to minimal credit and market risk. As of April 30, 2005 and 2006, cash equivalents totaled approximately $10,027,000 and $13,670,000, respectively. At times, cash balances held at financial institutions were in excess of federally insured limits.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)
 

 
Restricted Cash
 
Restricted cash of approximately $1,532,000, as of April 30, 2006, represents deposits with a bank to secure standby letters of credit aggregating approximately $1,652,000, as of April 30, 2006, established for the benefit of the Company’s customers. The restriction on cash will be released upon expiration of the standby letters of credit. The standby letters of credit will expire when the Company’s customers provide product acceptance and release their interest in the letters of credit. Management believes this will occur prior to April 30, 2007. There were no requirements for restricted cash at April 30, 2005. As of April 30, 2006, there were no claims relevant to the letters of credit.
 
Fair Values of Financial Instruments
 
Fair values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, unbilled receivables and retentions approximate cost due to the short period of time to maturity.
 
Concentration of Credit Risk
 
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of accounts receivable. The Company’s revenue and accounts receivable are with a limited number of corporations and governmental entities. In the aggregate, 69%, 74% and 77% of the Company’s revenue came from agencies of the U.S. government for the years ended April 30, 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively. These agencies accounted for 70% and 77% of the accounts receivable balances at April 30, 2005 and 2006, respectively. One such agency, the U.S. Army, accounted for 23%, 43% and 54% of the Company’s consolidated revenue for the years ended April 30, 2004, 2005 and 2006 respectively. The U.S. Army accounted for approximately 36%, 55% and 66% of UAS reportable segment sales in fiscal year 2004, 2005 and 2006 respectively. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its commercial customers and maintains an allowance for potential losses.
 
Accounts Receivable, Unbilled Receivables and Retentions
 
Accounts receivable represents primarily U.S. government, and to a lesser extent commercial receivables, net of allowances for doubtful accounts. Unbilled receivables represent costs in excess of billings on incomplete contracts and, where applicable, accrued profit related to government long-term contracts on which revenue has been recognized, but for which the customer has not yet been billed. Retentions represent amounts withheld by customers until contract completion. The Company determines the allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical customer experience and other currently available evidence. When a specific account is deemed uncollectible, the account is written off against the allowance. The allowance for doubtful accounts reflects the Company’s best estimate of probable losses inherent in the accounts receivable balance; such losses have been within management’s expectations. An account is deemed past due based on contractual terms rather than on how recently payments have been received.
 
Inventories
 
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (using the weighted average costing method) or market value. Inventory write-offs and write-down provisions are provided to cover risks arising from slow-moving items or technological obsolescence and for market prices lower than cost. The Company periodically evaluates the quantities on hand relative to current and historical selling prices and historical and projected sales volume. Based on this evaluation, provisions are made to write inventory down to its market value.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)
 

 
Long-Lived Assets
 
Property and equipment are carried at cost. Depreciation of property and equipment, including amortization of leasehold improvements, are provided using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:
 
         
Assets held for lease
    2 to 5 years  
Machinery and equipment
    3 years  
Computer equipment and software
    2 to 3 years  
Furniture and fixtures
    3 years  
Leasehold improvements
    Lesser of useful life or term of lease  
 
Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are charged directly to expense as incurred. Additions and betterments to property, plant and equipment are capitalized at cost. When the Company disposes of assets, the applicable costs and accumulated depreciation and amortization thereon are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in other income (expenses) in the period incurred. Depreciation and amortization expense on property, plant and equipment was approximately $764,000, $1,053,000 and $1,999,000 for the years ended April 30, 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively.
 
The Company reviews the recoverability of its long-lived assets as required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. The estimated future cash flows are based upon, among other things, assumptions about expected future operating performance, and may differ from actual cash flows. If the sum of the projected undiscounted cash flows (excluding interest) is less than the carrying value of the assets, the assets will be written down to the estimated fair value in the period in which the determination is made. At April 30, 2005 and 2006, and during the years ended April 30, 2004, 2005 and 2006, no indicators of impairment were identified and no impairment reserve was recorded.
 
Product Warranty
 
The Company accrues an estimate of its exposure to warranty claims based upon both current and historical product sales data and warranty costs incurred. Product warranty reserves were recorded in other current liabilities.
 
Self-Insurance Liability
 
The Company is self-insured for employee medical claims, subject to individual and aggregate stop-loss policies. The Company estimates a liability for claims filed and incurred but not reported claims based upon recent claims experience and an analysis of the average period of time between the occurrence of a claim and the time it is reported to and paid by the Company. As of April 30, 2005 and 2006, the Company estimated and recorded a self insurance liability in wages and related accruals of approximately $140,000 and $238,000 respectively.
 
Income Taxes
 
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for differences between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future. The provision for income taxes reflects the taxes to be paid for the period and the change during the period in the deferred income tax assets and liabilities. The


F-9


Table of Contents

AeroVironment, Inc.
 
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)
 

Company records a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount of future tax benefit that is more likely then not to be realized.
 
Customer Advances and Amounts in Excess of Cost Incurred
 
The Company receives advances, performance-based payments and progress payments from customers that may exceed costs incurred on certain contracts, including contracts with agencies of the U.S. government. These advances are classified as advances from customers and will be offset against billings.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
The substantial majority of the Company’s revenue is generated pursuant to written contractual arrangements to design, develop, manufacture and/or modify complex products, and to provide related engineering, technical and other services according to the specifications of the buyers (customers). These contracts may be fixed price or cost-reimbursable. These contract types are accounted for in accordance with American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position 81-1, Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts (“SOP 81-1”).
 
Product sales revenue is composed of revenue recognized on contracts for the delivery of production hardware and related activities. Contract services revenue is composed of revenue recognized on contracts for the provision of services, including repairs, training, engineering design, development, and prototyping activities.
 
Revenue from cost-plus-fee contracts are recognized on the basis of costs incurred during the period plus the fee earned. Revenue from fixed-price contracts are recognized on the percentage-of-completion method. Contract costs include all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance. Unbilled receivables represent costs incurred and related profit on contracts not yet billed to customers, and are invoiced in subsequent periods.
 
Product sales revenue are recognized on the percentage-of-completion method or upon transfer of title to the customer, which is generally upon shipment. Shipping and handling costs incurred are included in cost of sales.
 
Revenue and profits on fixed-price production contracts, where units are produced and delivered in a continuous or sequential process, are recorded as units are delivered based on their selling prices (the “units-of-delivery method”). Revenue and profits on other fixed-price contracts with significant engineering as well as production requirements are recorded based on the ratio of total actual incurred costs to date to the total estimated costs for each contract (“the cost-to-cost method”). Accounting for revenue and profits on a fixed-price contract requires the preparation of estimates of (1) the total contract revenue, (2) the total costs at completion, which is equal to the sum of the actual incurred costs to date on the contract and the estimated costs to complete the contract’s statement of work, and (3) the measurement of progress towards completion. The estimated profit or loss at completion on a contract is equal to the difference between the total estimated contract revenue and the total estimated cost at completion. Under the units-of-delivery method, sales on a fixed-price type contract are recorded as the units are delivered during the period based on their contractual selling prices. Under the cost-to-cost method, sales on a fixed-price type contract are recorded at amounts equal to the ratio of actual cumulative costs incurred divided by total estimated costs at completion, multiplied by (i) the total estimated contract revenue, less (ii) the cumulative sales recognized in prior periods. The profit recorded on a contract in any period using either the units-of-delivery method or cost-to-cost method is equal to (i) the current estimated total profit margin multiplied by the cumulative


F-10


Table of Contents

AeroVironment, Inc.
 
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)
 

sales recognized, less (ii) the amount of cumulative profit previously recorded for the contract. In the case of a contract for which the total estimated costs exceed the total estimated revenue, a loss arises, and a provision for the entire loss is recorded in the period that it becomes evident. The unrecoverable costs on a loss contract that are expected to be incurred in future periods are recorded in the program cost.
 
Significant management judgments and estimates must be made and used in connection with the recognition of revenue in any accounting period. Material differences in the amount of revenue in any given period may result if these judgments or estimates prove to be incorrect or if management’s estimates change on the basis of development of the business, market conditions, or other factors. Management judgments and estimates have been applied consistently and have been reliable historically.
 
Stock-Based Compensation
 
The Company grants stock options with an exercise price equal to the fair value of the stock at the date of grant. The Company accounts for stock-based compensation plans using the intrinsic-value-based method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion (“APB”) No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. Under APB No. 25, if the exercise price of the Company’s employee stock options equals or exceeds the fair value of the underlying stock at the date of grant, no compensation expense is recognized.
 
Research and Development
 
Internally funded research and development costs (“IRAD”) sponsored by the Company relate to both U.S. government products and services and those for commercial and foreign customers. IRAD costs for the Company’s businesses that are U.S. government contractors are recoverable indirect contract costs that are allocated to the U.S. government contracts in accordance with U.S. government procurement regulations.
 
Customer-funded research and development costs are incurred pursuant to contracts (revenue arrangements) to perform research and development activities according to customer specifications. These costs are direct contract costs and are expensed to cost of sales when the corresponding revenue is recognized, which is generally as the research and development services are performed. Revenue from customer-funded research and development were approximately $17,339,000, $10,641,000 and $11,568,000 for the years ended April 30, 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively.
 
Lease Accounting
 
The Company accounts for its leases under the provisions of SFAS No. 13, Accounting for Leases, and subsequent amendments, which require that leases be evaluated and classified as operating leases or capital leases for financial reporting purposes. Certain operating leases contain rent escalation clauses, which are recorded on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the lease with the difference between the rent paid and the straight-line rent recorded as a deferred rent liability. Lease incentives received from landlords are recorded as deferred rent liabilities and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lease term as a reduction to rent expense. Deferred rent liabilities were approximately $77,000 and $408,000 as of April 30, 2005 and 2006, respectively.

Advertising Costs
 
Advertising costs consist of tradeshows and other marketing activities, and are expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses included in selling, general and administrative expenses were approximately $100,000, $423,000 and $266,000 for the years ended April 30, 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively.
 
Earnings Per Share
 
Basic earnings per share are computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and excludes any anti-dilutive effects of options, warrants and convertible securities. The dilutive effect of potential common shares outstanding is included in diluted earnings per share.
 
The reconciliation of diluted to basic shares is as follows:
 
                         
    Year Ended April 30  
   
2004
   
2005
   
2006

    78,917       166,620       264,573  
                         
Denominator for diluted earnings per share
    1,718,460       1,967,550       2,113,395  
                         
 
During the years ended April 30, 2004, 2005 and 2006, there were no stock options that were anti-dilutive to earnings per share.
 
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
 
In June 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity. This statement establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument within its scope as a liability. Many of these instruments were previously classified as equity. In October 2003, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) SFAS 150-3, Effective Date for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Noncontrolling Interests Under SFAS 150, which defers certain provisions of Statement No. 150 as they apply to mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interests. The deferral is expected to remain in effect while those issues are addressed in either Phase II of the FASB’s Liabilities and Equity project or Phase II of the Business Combination project. The FASB also decided to (1) preclude any “early” adoption of the deferred provisions for these noncontrolling interests during the deferral period, and (2) require the restatement of any consolidated financial statements that have been issued where these provisions of Statement No. 150 were applied to mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interests. The Company does not believe that the impact of the adoption will have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
 
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (“SFAS 123R”). SFAS 123R requires that compensation expense relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements at estimated fair value. The scope of SFAS 123R includes a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements, including share options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans. This standard replaces SFAS 123 and supersedes APB 25. The Company has historically utilized the minimum value method in determining the volatility factors utilized in its fair value estimates

as a non-public entity. SFAS 123R does not provide for the use of the minimum value method. If the Company is unable to accurately estimate its expected volatility based on the Company’s share price, it may measure awards based on “calculated value” (which substitutes the volatility of an appropriate index for the volatility of the entity’s own share price). The Company plans to adopt SFAS 123R on the prospective basis as of May 1, 2006. Since the Company used the minimum value method of measuring stock options for pro forma disclosure purposes under SFAS 123, implementation of SFAS 123R applies prospectively to new awards after May 1, 2006. Share-based benefits will be valued at fair value using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The fair value will be expensed over the vesting period. The adoption of SFAS 123R will result in the recording of non-cash compensation expense for options granted on or after May 1, 2006. If the Company issues options, it may have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations.
 
In March 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 107, Share-Based Payment (“SAB 107”). SAB 107 provides guidance to assist registrants in the initial implementation of SFAS 123R. SAB 107 includes, but is not limited to, interpretive guidance related to share-based payment transactions with non-employees, valuation methods and underlying expected volatility and expected term assumptions, the classification of compensation expense and accounting for the income tax effects of share-based arrangements upon adopting SFAS 123R.
 
In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154 (“SFAS 154”), Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, which requires retrospective application of all voluntary changes in accounting principles to all periods presented, rather than using a cumulative catch-up adjustment as currently required for most accounting changes under APB Opinion 20, Accounting Changes. SFAS 154 replaces APB Opinion No. 20 and SFAS No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements, and will be effective for accounting changes and error corrections made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The adoption of SFAS 154 is not expected to have any impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations or cash flows.
 
In June 2005, the FASB approved Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 05-06, Determining the Amortization Period for Leasehold Improvements (“EITF 05-06”). EITF 05-06 provides guidance on determining the amortization period for leasehold improvements acquired in a business combination or acquired subsequent to lease inception. The guidance requires that leasehold improvements acquired in a business combination or purchased subsequent to the inception of a lease be amortized over the lesser of the useful life of the assets or a term that includes renewals that are reasonably assured at the date of the business combination or purchase. The guidance is effective for periods beginning after June 29, 2005. EITF 05-06 is not expected to have any impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

prime commercial lending rate, which was 5.75% and 7.75% as of April 30, 2005 and 2006, respectively. The line of credit is secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets. Payment of amounts outstanding is made at the Company’s discretion. The line of credit is secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets. All principal plus accrued interest is due August 31, 2007. The Company had no outstanding balance on the line of credit as of April 30, 2006.
 
Under the same credit agreement, the Company had a term loan dated March 31, 2004, payable over 36 months. Borrowings bear interest at the bank’s prime commercial lending rate, which was 4.00%, 5.75% and 7.75% at April 30, 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively. There were $1,000,000 in borrowings outstanding under this term loan as of April 30, 2005. All principal plus accrued interest were repaid in the year ended April 30, 2006.
 
Under the same credit agreement, the Company had a term loan dated March 31, 2005, payable over 36 months. Borrowings bear interest at the bank’s prime commercial lending rate, which was 5.75% and 7.75% at April 30, 2005 and 2006, respectively. There were $1,500,000 in borrowings outstanding under this term loan as of April 30, 2005. All principal plus accrued interest were repaid in the year ended April 30, 2006.
 
Interest expense was approximately $90,000, $110,000 and $127,000 for the years ended April 30, 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively, and is included in other expenses, net.
 
The credit agreement contains certain financial covenants and conditions which require, among other things, that the Company maintain certain tangible net worth and cash flow ratios. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of April 30, 2005 and 2006.
 
6.   Employee Savings Plan
 
The Company has an employee 401(k) savings plan covering all eligible employees. The Company expensed approximately $673,000, $724,000 and $918,000 in contributions to the plan for the years ended April 30, 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively. Annual contributions are at the discretion of management.
 
7.   Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan
 
On May 19, 2005, the Company implemented a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”), which is a non-qualified executive benefit plan in which the Company agrees to pay the Chairman of the Board (“Chairman”) additional benefits at retirement. The SERP is an unfunded plan, which means there are no specific assets set aside by the Company. The Chairman has no rights under the agreement beyond those of a general creditor of the Company. During the year ended April 30, 2006, the Company recognized approximately $2,209,000 of expense charged to operations and recorded such expense as a long-term liability in connection with this plan. The SERP was fully vested on May 19, 2006, the first anniversary of the Chairman’s participation. On the occurrence of a liquidity event as defined by the SERP, including but not limited to a successful initial public offering of equity securities, all remaining benefits to be paid under the plan are forfeited.
 
The unfunded liability was estimated using the following assumptions: an annual Consumer Price Index increase of 5% for the expected benefit period based on U.S. mortality statistics, and a discount rate of 7.75%.

8.   Stock Based Compensation
 
The Company has an Equity Incentive Plan (the “2002 Plan”) for officers, directors and key employees. Under the 2002 Plan, incentive stock options or nonqualified stock options may be granted, as determined by the administrator at the time of grant. Stock purchase rights may also be granted under the 2002 Plan. The maximum number of options which may be granted under the 2002 Plan is equal to 50% of the Company’s total shares outstanding, less options outstanding under plans other than the 2002 Plan, but not to exceed 500,000. At April 30, 2006, 247,700 options were available for grant under the 2002 Plan. Options under the 2002 Plan are granted at their fair market value (as determined by the board of directors). The options become exercisable at various times over a five-year period from the grant date.
 
The Company has a 1992 nonqualified stock option plan (the “1992 Plan”) for certain officers and key employees. Options under the 1992 Plan were granted at their fair market value (as determined by the board of directors) at the date of grant and became exercisable at various times over a five-year period from the grant date. The 1992 Plan expired in August 2002.
 
The Company has a 1994 nonqualified stock option plan (the “1994 Directors’ Plan”) for the directors of the Company. Options under the 1994 Directors’ Plan were granted at their fair market value (as determined by the board of directors) at the date of grant and became exercisable on the date of grant. The 1994 Directors’ Plan expired in June 2004.
 
Stock purchased through exercise of options under the 1992 Plan, the 1994 Directors’ Plan and the 2002 Plan are subject to various repurchase agreements which give the Company the right to repurchase shares from employees upon separation from the Company and specify the terms of such repurchase. The Company is not obligated to repurchase such shares.

The Company adopted SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure, which amends SFAS No. 123 to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair-value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, SFAS No. 148 amends the disclosure requirement of SFAS No. 123 to require more prominent and more frequent disclosures in consolidated financial statements of the effects of stock-based compensation.
 
If the Company had elected to recognize compensation cost based on the fair value of the options granted at the grant date as prescribed by SFAS No. 148, net income would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts shown below:

income for future years. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the minimum value option pricing model, with the following assumptions used: risk-free interest rate of 3.0%, 4.0% and 6.75% for the years ended April 30, 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively, an expected options life of four, five and five years after vesting for the years ended April 30, 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively, and no expected dividends.

The Company’s California net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $77,000 expire in 2007 and 2008. The research and development credits of approximately $1,999,000 and the other carryforwards are indefinite and therefore do not expire.
 
The Company has established a valuation allowance against its California capital loss carryforward and solar credit net deferred tax assets, as it is unlikely that such assets will be fully utilized.
 
10.   Related Party Transactions

Rental expense under operating leases was approximately $1,057,000, $1,428,000 and $1,723,000 for the years ended April 30, 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively.
 
Contingencies
 
The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims which arise out of the ordinary course of its business. Although occasional adverse decisions or settlements may occur, the Company, in consultation with legal counsel, believes that the final disposition of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
 
Contract Cost Audits
 
Payments to the Company on government cost reimbursable contracts are based on provisional, or estimated indirect rates, which are subject to an annual audit by the Defense Contract Audit Agency (“DCAA”). The cost audits result in the negotiation and determination of the final indirect cost rates that the Company may use for the period(s) audited. The final rates, if different from the provisional rates, may create an additional receivable or liability for the Company. The Company’s revenue recognition policy calls for revenue recognized on all cost reimbursable government contracts to be recorded at actual rates unless collectibility is not reasonably assured.
 
12.   Segment Data
 
The Company’s product segments are as follows:
 
  •  Unmanned Aircraft Systems (“UAS”) — The UAS segment consists primarily of the design and manufacture of small unmanned aircraft systems solutions.
 
  •  PosiCharge Fast Charge Systems (“PosiCharge”) — The PosiCharge segment supplies fast charge systems for users of electric industrial vehicle batteries.
 
  •  Energy Technology Center — The Energy Technology Center segment consists of energy development projects and power processing test equipment product sales.
 
The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.” Because the products they design and sell generally define the operating segments, they do not make sales to each other. Depreciation and amortization related to

the manufacturing of goods is included in gross margin for the segments. The Company does not discretely allocate assets to its operating segments, nor does the CODM evaluate operating segments using discrete asset information. Consequently, the Company operates its financial systems as a single segment for accounting and control purposes, maintains a single indirect rate structure across all segments, has no inter-segment sales or corporate elimination transactions, and maintains only limited financial statement information by segment.
 
The segment results are as follows:

Unaudited Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
 
1.   Organization and Significant Accounting Policies
 
Organization
 
AeroVironment, Inc., a California corporation, is engaged in design, development and production of unmanned aircraft systems and energy technologies for various industries and governmental agencies.
 
Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles or interim financial information and with the instructions of Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation with respect to the interim financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the three months ended July 29, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year ending April 30, 2007. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto for the year ended April 30, 2006, included herein.
 
Basis of Consolidation
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of AeroVironment, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries: AV S.r.l., Skytower, LLC, Skytower Inc., AILC, Inc. and Regenerative Fuel Cell Systems, LLC (collectively referred to herein as the “Company”). AV S.r.l. was created during the year ended April 30, 2006, to enable customer support efforts in Italy and future business development in Europe; no sales were recorded in the year ended April 30, 2006. Skytower, LLC, Skytower Inc., AILC, Inc. and Regenerative Fuel Cell Systems, LLC had no operations during the three months ended July 28, 2005 and July 29, 2006. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
Segments
 
The Company’s products are sold and divided among three reportable segments as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information to reflect the Company’s strategic goals. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s CODM is the Chief Executive Officer who reviews the revenue and gross margin results for each of these segments in making decisions about allocating resources, including the focus of research and development activities, and assessing performance. The Company’s reportable segments are business units that offer different products and services and are managed separately.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions, including estimates of anticipated contract costs and revenue utilized in the revenue recognition process, that affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
 
In November 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 123R-3 (“FSP 123R-3”), Transition Election Related to Accounting for the Tax Effects of Share-Based Payment Awards. FSP 123R-3 provides an elective alternative transition method for calculating the pool of excess tax benefits available to absorb tax deficiencies recognized subsequent to the adoption of FAS 123R. Companies may take up to one year from the effective date of FSP 123R-3 to evaluate the available transition alternatives and make a one-time election as to which method to adopt. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the alternative methods.
 
In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48). FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. This accounting standard will be effective for the Company beginning May 1, 2007. The Company is currently assessing the provisions of FIN 48.
 
2.   Inventories, net
 
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (using the weighted average costing method) or market value. Inventory write-offs and write-down provisions are provided to cover risks arising from slow-moving items or technological obsolescence and for market prices lower than cost. The Company periodically evaluates the quantities on hand relative to current and historical selling prices and historical and projected sales volume. Based on this evaluation, provisions are made to write inventory down to its market value.
 
Inventories consist of the following:

3.   Bank Borrowings
 
The Company has a working capital line of credit with a bank, amended on June 16, 2005, which increased the borrowing limit from $10,000,000 to $16,500,000. Borrowings bear interest at the bank’s prime commercial lending rate, which was 7.75% and 8.25% as of April 30, 2006 and July 29, 2006, respectively. The line of credit is secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets. Payment of amounts outstanding is made at the Company’s discretion. The line of credit is secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets. All principal plus accrued interest is due August 31, 2007. The Company had no outstanding balance on the line of credit as of April 30, 2006 and July 29, 2006.
 
Interest expense was approximately $30,000 and $6,000 for the three months ended July 30, 2005 and July 29, 2006, respectively, and is included in other (expenses) income, net.

The credit agreement contains certain financial covenants and conditions which require, among other things, that the Company maintain certain tangible net worth and cash flow ratios. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of April 30, 2006 and July 29, 2006.
 
4.   Earnings Per Share

Denominator for diluted earnings per share
    2,050,620       2,154,890  
                 
 
During the three months ended July 30, 2005 and July 29, 2006, there were no stock options that were anti-dilutive to earnings per share.
 
5.   Stock Based Compensation
 
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (“SFAS 123R”). SFAS 123R requires that compensation expense relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements at estimated fair value. The scope of SFAS 123R includes a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements, including share options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans. This standard replaces SFAS 123 and supersedes APB 25. The Company has historically used the minimum value method in determining the volatility factors utilized in its fair value estimates as a non-public entity. SFAS 123R does not provide for the use of the minimum value method. If the Company is unable to accurately estimate its expected volatility based on the Company’s share price, it may measure awards based on “calculated value” (which substitutes the volatility of an appropriate index for the volatility of the entity’s own share price). Share-based benefits will be valued at fair value using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The fair value will be expensed over the vesting period. The adoption of SFAS 123R will result in the recording of non-cash compensation expense for options granted on or after May 1, 2006.
 
The Company adopted SFAS 123R effective May 1, 2006.  Because the Company historically used the minimum value method of measuring stock options, implementation of SFAS 123R applies prospectively to new awards after adoption. No expense is recognized for options granted prior to adoption. No awards were granted and no expense recognized during the three months ended July 29, 2006 as a result of adoption.
 
The Company has an Equity Incentive Plan (the 2002 Plan) for officers, directors and key employees. Under the 2002 Plan, incentive stock options or nonqualified stock options may be granted, as determined by the administrator at the time of grant. Stock purchase rights may also be granted under the 2002 Plan. The maximum number of options which may be granted under the 2002 Plan is equal to 50% of the Company’s total shares outstanding, less options outstanding under plans other than the 2002 Plan, but not to exceed 500,000. At July 29, 2006, 248,600 options were available for grant under the 2002 Plan. Options under the 2002 Plan are granted at their fair market value. The options become exercisable at various times over a five-year period from the grant date.

6.   Segment Data
 
The Company’s product segments are as follows:
 
  •  Unmanned Aircraft Systems (“UAS”) — The UAS segment consists primarily of the design and manufacture of small unmanned aircraft systems solutions.
 
  •  PosiCharge Fast Charge Systems (“PosiCharge”) — The PosiCharge segment supplies fast charge systems for electric industrial vehicle batteries.
 
  •  Energy Technology Center — The Energy Technology Center segment consists of energy development projects and power processing test equipment product sales.
 
Because the products they design and sell generally define operating segments, they do not make sales to each other. Depreciation and amortization related to the manufacturing of goods is included in gross profit for the segments. The Company does not discretely allocate assets to its operating segments, nor does the CODM evaluate operating segments using discrete asset information. Consequently, the Company operates its financial systems as a single segment for accounting and control purposes, maintains a single indirect rate structure across all segments, has no inter-

Item 14.   Indemnification of Directors and Officers
 
We plan to reincorporate in Delaware prior to the effectiveness of this registration statement. Section 102 of the Delaware General Corporation Law allows a corporation to eliminate the personal liability of directors of a corporation to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except where the director breached the duty of loyalty, failed to act in good faith, engaged in intentional misconduct or knowingly violated a law, authorized the payment of a dividend or approved a stock repurchase in violation of Delaware corporate law or obtained an improper personal benefit.
 
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides, among other things, that we may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding — other than an action by or in the right of the corporation — by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, agent, or employee of the corporation, or is or was serving at our request as a director, officer, agent or employee of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding. The power to indemnify applies (a) if such person is successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding or (b) if such person acting in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in the best interest, or not opposed to the best interest, of the corporation, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful. The power to indemnify applies to actions brought by or in the right of the corporation as well but only to the extent of defense expenses, including attorneys’ fees but excluding amounts paid in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred and not to any satisfaction of judgment or settlement of the claim itself, and with the further limitation that in such actions no indemnification shall be made in the event of any adjudication of liability to the corporation, unless the court believes that in light of all the circumstances indemnification should apply.

Table of Contents

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, to be attached as Exhibit 3.2 hereto, and our amended and restated bylaws, to be attached as Exhibit 3.4 hereto, which will be effective upon completion of the offering of our common stock pursuant to this registration statement, will provide that we will indemnify each of our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporate Law. In addition, in connection with this offering, we intend to enter into indemnification agreements with each of our executive officers and directors. The indemnification provisions contained in these agreements may be broader than those contained in the Delaware General Corporation Law. In addition, we intend to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director or officer against any loss arising from any claim asserted against him or her and incurred by him or her in that capacity, subject to certain exclusions and limits of the amount of coverage.
 
The underwriting agreement, to be attached as Exhibit 1.1 hereto, provides for indemnification by the underwriters of us, our executive officers and directors, and indemnification of the underwriters by us for certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in connection with matters specifically provided in writing by the underwriters for inclusion in the registration statement.
 
Item 15.   Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
 
During the last three years, we have issued securities in the following transactions, each of which was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. No underwriters were involved in any of the below-referenced sales of securities.
 
1. From May 2003 through September 2006, we granted stock options to purchase 148,500 shares of our common stock at exercise prices ranging from $4.48 to $82.98 per share to our employees and directors under our employee benefit plans. During this period, 16,500 options were surrendered resulting in a net of 114,500 options granted. During that time, options to purchase 341,990 shares of our common stock were exercised, for an aggregate consideration of approximately $1,211,092.
 
The sales and issuances of securities in the transactions described above were deemed to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in reliance upon Rule 701 promulgated under Section 3(b) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as transactions pursuant to compensatory benefit plans and contracts relating to compensation as provided under Rule 701. The recipients of securities in each transaction represented their intentions to acquire the securities for investment only and not with a view to or for sale in connection with any distribution thereof and appropriate legends were affixed to the securities issued in these transactions. All recipients had adequate access, through employment or other relationships, to information about us.
 
There were no underwriters employed in connection with any of the transactions set forth in this Item 15.

Item 17.   Undertakings
 
We hereby undertake to provide to the underwriters at the closing specified in the underwriting agreement certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.
 
Insofar as indemnification by the Registrant for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC, this indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against these liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by any of our directors, officers or controlling persons in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by a director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether this indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and will be governed by the final adjudication of this issue.
 
We hereby undertake that:
 
(a) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the information omitted from a form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in the form of prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.
 
(b) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, 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.

Notice shall be deemed to have been given at the time when delivered personally or deposited in the mail or sent by telegram or other means of written communication.
     If any notice addressed to a shareholder at the address of that shareholder appearing on the books of the corporation is returned to the corporation by the United States Postal Service marked to indicate that the United States Postal Service is unable to deliver the notice to the shareholder at that address, all future notices or reports shall be deemed to have been duly given without further mailing if these shall be available to the shareholder on written demand of the shareholder at the principal executive office of the corporation for a period of one (1) year from the date of the giving of the notice.

 


 

     An affidavit of the mailing or other means of giving any notice of any shareholders’ meeting shall be executed by the secretary, assistant secretary or any transfer agent of the corporation giving the notice, and shall be filed and maintained in the minute book of the corporation.
     Section 6. Quorum. The presence in person or by proxy of the holders of a majority of the shares entitled to vote at any meeting of shareholders shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. The shareholders present at a duly called or held meeting at which a quorum is present may continue to do business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough shareholders 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.
     Section 7. Adjourned Meeting; Notice. Any shareholders’ meeting, annual or special, whether or not a quorum is present, may he adjourned from time to time by the vote of the majority of the shares represented at that meeting, either in person or by proxy, but in the absence of a quorum, no other business may be transacted at that meeting, except as provided in Section 5 of this Article II.
     When any meeting of shareholders, either annual or special, is adjourned to another time or place, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time and place are announced at a meeting at which the adjournment is taken, unless a new record date for the adjourned meeting is fixed, or unless the adjournment is for more than forty-five (45) days from the date set for the original meeting, in which case the board of directors shall set a new record date. Notice of my such adjourned meeting shall be given to each shareholder of record entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting in accordance with the provisions of Section 4 and 5 of this Article II. At any adjourned meeting the corporation may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting,
     Section 8. Voting. The shareholders entitled to vote at any meeting of shareholders shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 11 of this Article II, subject to the provisions of Sections 702 to 704, inclusive, of the Corporations Code of California (relating to voting shares held by a fiduciary, in the name of a corporation or in joint ownership). The shareholders’ vote may be by voice vote or by ballot; provided, however, that any election for directors must be by ballot if demanded by any shareholder before the voting has begun. On any matter other than elections of directors, any shareholder may vote part of the shares in favor of the proposal and refrain from voting the remaining shares or vote them against the proposal, but, if the shareholder fails to specify the number of shares which the shareholder is voting affirmatively, it will be conclusively presumed that the shareholder’s approving vote is with respect to all shares that the shareholder is entitled to vote. If a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of the majority of the shares represented at the meeting and entitled to vote on any matter (other than the election of directors) shall be the act of the shareholders, unless the vote of a greater number or voting by classes is required by California General Corporation Law or by the articles of incorporation.
     At a shareholders’ meeting at which directors are to be elected, no shareholder shall be entitled to cumulate votes (i.e., cast for any one or more candidates a number of votes greater than the number of the shareholder’s shares) unless the candidates’ names have been placed in

 


 

nomination prior to commencement of the voting and a shareholder has given notice prior to commencement of the voting of the shareholder’s intention to cumulate votes. If any shareholder has given such a notice, then every shareholder entitled to vote may cumulate votes for candidates in nomination 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 that shareholder’s shares are entitled, or distribute the shareholder’s votes on the same principle among any or all of the candidates, as the shareholder thinks fit. The candidates receiving the highest number of votes, up to the number of directors to be elected, shall he elected.
     Section 9. Waiver of Notice or Consent by Absent Shareholders. The transactions of any meeting of shareholders, either annual or special, however called and noticed and wherever 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 person entitled to vote who was not present in person or by proxy, or who, though present, has at the beginning of the meeting properly objected to the transaction of any business because the meeting was not lawfully called or convened, or to particular matters of business legally required to be included in the notice but not so included, signs a written waiver of notice or a consent to a holding of the meeting or an approval of the minutes. The waiver of notice or consent need not specify either the business to be transacted or the purpose of any annual or special meeting of shareholders, except that if action is taken or proposed to be taken for approval of any of those matters specified in the second paragraph of Section 4 of this Article II, the waiver of notice or consent shall state the general nature of the proposal. All such waivers, consents or approvals shall be filed with the corporate records or made a part of the minutes of the meeting.
     Section 10. Shareholder Action by Written Consent Without a Meeting. Any action which may be taken at any annual or special meeting of shareholders may be taken without a meeting and without prior notice if a consent, in writing, setting forth the action so taken is signed by the holders of outstanding shares having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take that action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote on that action were present and voted. In the case of election of directors, such a consent shall be effective only if signed by the holders of all outstanding shares entitled to vote for the election of directors; provided, however, that a director may be elected at any time to fill a vacancy on the board of directors that has not been filled by the directors by the written consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote for the election of directors. All such consents shall be filed with the secretary of the corporation and shall be maintained in the corporate records. Any shareholder giving a written consent, or the shareholder’s proxy holders, or a transferee of the shares, or a personal representative of the shareholder or their respective proxy holders may revoke the consent by a writing received by the secretary of the corporation before written consents of the number of shares required to authorize the proposed action have been filed with the secretary.
     If the consents of all shareholders entitled to vote have not been solicited in writing and if the unanimous written consent of all such shareholders shall not have been received, the secretary shall give prompt notice of the corporate action approved by the shareholders without a meeting. This notice shall be given in the manner specified in Section 5 of this Article II, In the case of approval of (i) contracts or transactions in which a director has a direct or indirect financial interest pursuant to Section 310 of the Corporations Code of California, (ii)

 


 

indemnification of agents of the corporation pursuant to Section 317 of that Code, (iii) a reorganization of the corporation pursuant to Section 1201 of that Code, and (iv) a distribution in dissolution other than in accordance with the rights of outstanding preferred shares pursuant to Section 2007 of that Code, the notice shall be given at least ten (10) days before the consummation of any action authorized by that approval.
     Section 11. Record Date for Shareholder Notice, Voting, and Giving Consents. For purposes of determining the shareholders entitled to notice of any meeting or to vote or entitled to give consent to corporate action without a meeting, the board of directors may fix, in advance, a record date which shall not he more than sixty (60) days nor less than ten (10) days before the date of any such meeting nor more than sixty (60) days before any such action without a meeting, and in this event only shareholders of record on the date so fixed are entitled to notice and to vote or to give consents, as the case may be, notwithstanding any transfer of any shares on the books of the corporation after the record date, except as otherwise provided in the California General Corporation Law.
     If the board of directors does not so fix a record date:
     (a) The record date for determining shareholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of shareholders shall be at the close of business on the business day next preceding the day on which 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.
     (b) The record date for determining shareholders entitled to give consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting (i) when no prior action by the board has been taken, shall be the day on which the first written consent is given, or (ii) when prior action of the board has been taken, shall be at the close of business on the day on which the board adopts the resolution relating to that action, or the sixtieth (60th) day before the date of such other action, whichever is later.
     Section 12. Proxies. Every person entitled to vote for directors or on any other matter shall have the right to do so either in person or by one or more agents authorized by a written proxy signed by the person and filed with the secretary of the corporation. A proxy shall be deemed signed if the shareholder’s name is placed on the proxy (whether by manual signature, typewriting, telegraphic transmission or otherwise) by the shareholder or the shareholder’s attorney-in-fact. A validly executed proxy which does not state that it is irrevocable shall continue in full force and effect unless (i) revoked by the person executing it, before the vote pursuant to that proxy, by a writing delivered to the corporation stating that the proxy is revoked, or by a subsequent proxy executed by, or attendance at the meeting and voting in person by, the person executing the proxy; or (ii) written notice of the death or incapacity of the maker of that proxy is received by the corporation before the vote pursuant to that proxy is counted; provided, however, that no proxy shall be valid after the expiration of eleven (11) months from the date of the proxy unless otherwise provided in the proxy. The revocability of a proxy that states on its face that it is irrevocable shall be governed by the provisions of Sections 705(e) and 705(f) of the Corporations Code of California.

 


 

     Section 13. Inspectors of Election. Before any meeting of shareholders, the board of directors may appoint any persons other than nominees for office to act as inspectors of election at the meeting or its adjournment. If no inspectors of election are so appointed, the chairman of the meeting may, and on the request of any shareholder or a shareholder’s proxy shall, appoint inspectors of election at the meeting, The number of inspectors shall be either one (1) or three (3). If inspectors are appointed at a meeting on the request of one or more shareholders or proxies, the holders of a majority of shares or their proxies present at the meeting shall determine whether one (1) or three (3) inspectors are to be appointed. If any person appointed as inspector fails to appear or fails or refuses to act, the chairman of the meeting may, and upon the request of any shareholder or a shareholders proxy shall, appoint a person to fill that vacancy.
     These inspectors shall:
     (a) determine the number of shares outstanding and the voting power of each, the shares represented at the meeting, the existence of a quorum, and the authenticity, validity and effect of proxies;
     (b) receive votes, ballots or consents;
     (c) hear and determine all challenges and questions in any way arising in connection with the right to vote;
     (d) count and tabulate all votes or consents;
     (e) determine when the polls shall close;
     (f) determine the result; and
     (g) do any other acts that may be proper to conduct the election or vote with fairness to all shareholders.

     (b) That it would be inconsistent with any condition expressly imposed by a court in approving a settlement.

EXHIBIT 10.2
AEROVIRONMENT, INC.
NONQUALIFIED STOCK OPTION PLAN
1. PURPOSE:
     The purpose of this Nonqualified Stock Option Plan (hereinafter referred to as the “Plan”) is to provide a means whereby key employees of AeroVironment, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as the “Company”), or any parent or subsidiary thereof, may be given an opportunity to purchase stock in the Company by grant of options which are intended to constitute nonqualified stock options. The underlying objectives which the Plan seeks to accomplish are to retain the services of key employees of the Company and its subsidiaries and to grant to such employees an opportunity to acquire proprietary interests in the business and thereby provide an added incentive to increase the Company’s earnings.
2. ADMINISTRATION:
     This Plan shall be administered by the Board of Directors of the Company. Subject to the express provisions of the Plan, the Board of Directors shall have the authority to construe and interpret the Plan and to define the terms used herein, to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the administration of the Plan, to determine the duration and purpose of leaves of absence which may be granted to participants without constituting a termination of their employment for the purposes of the Plan, to grant the options and to make all other determinations necessary or desirable for the administration of the Plan. The Board of Directors may insert into any options granted under this Plan any other terms, provisions, and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be determined by the Board of Directors. Specifically, the Board of Directors may, among other things, provide any or all Nonqualified Stock Option Agreements pursuant to which options are granted under this Plan that the Company’s stock to be

 


 

received upon the exercise of the option will be subject to a Stock Repurchase Agreement, which Stock Repurchase Agreement the Company may require any grantee under this Plan to execute and be bound by as a condition for receiving the Company’s stock pursuant to the exercise of options granted under this Plan. The determination of the Board of Directors on the matters referred to in this Section 2 shall be conclusive.
     The Board of Directors may appoint a committee consisting of not less than three Directors who shall serve at the pleasure of the Board of Directors to administer the Plan. Such committee shall have all or such part of the authority of the Board of Directors with respect to the Plan as provided in the resolution establishing the committee or in resolutions adopted from time to time thereafter. If such a committee is established, references herein to the Board of Directors shall be deemed to mean such committee to the extent appropriate in light of the authority of such committee.
3. STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN:
     The stock to be offered under the Plan shall be shares of the Company’s authorized but unissued capital stock or any shares of authorized but unissued stock into which such shares are changed, reclassified or converted. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 14 hereof, the aggregate number of shares to be delivered upon exercise of all options granted under the Plan may not exceed thirty thousand (30,000).
     If any option shall expire or terminate for any reason without having been exercise in full, the unpurchased shares subject thereto shall revert to the Plan and again be available for the purposes of the Plan.
     It is the intention in establishing this Plan that options shall be granted to allow the purchase of stock at an amount substantially equivalent to the fair market value of the stock as of the date of the grant of the option. The Board of Directors shall have discretion to determine

2


 

what constitutes fair market value of the stock of the corporation as of the date of exercise of options under this Plan, and whether options should, if ever, be issued at an exercise price less than fair market value at the date of grant of the option.
4. OBLIGATION OF COMPANY TO ISSUE SHARES:
     The Plan, and the grant and exercise of options thereunder, and the Company’s obligation to sell and deliver stock under such options, shall be subject to all applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations and to such approvals by any regulatory agencies as may be required or advisable. In no event shall the Company be required to issue fractional shares upon the exercise of an option. This Plan is intended to serve as a discretionary plan exercisable by the Board of Directors to allow the grant of options to certain key employees. The adoption of this Plan shall not imply any obligation or undertaking of any nature on the part of the Company to issue options other than as determined in the discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company.
5. ELIGIBILITY:
     Officers and other key employees of the Company or of any parent or subsidiary corporation (as that term is defined in Section 425 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended) shall be eligible for selection to participate in the Plan. No key employee shall be disqualified to receive such an option merely because he is already a shareholder of the Company nor merely because he is a member of the Board of Directors of the Company. The Board of Directors shall determine the individuals to whom options shall be granted, the terms and provisions of the respective option agreements (which need not be identical), the time at which such options shall be granted, and the number of shares subject to each option, and the Board of Directors shall grant such options. An individual who has been granted an option may,

3


 

if he is otherwise eligible, be granted an additional option or options if the Board of Directors shall so determine.
6. OPTION PRICE:
     The option price per share of stock purchasable under options granted pursuant to the Plan shall be determined by the Board of Directors. It is intended that options will in most instances be issued at a price not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the fair market value of the common stock of the Company on the day the option is granted. For the purposes hereof, the fair market value of the Company’s common stock shall be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors each time an option is granted hereunder, acting upon such information and advice as it shall deem necessary, which determination shall be conclusive. The Board of Directors may, however, in their discretion, grant options at an exercise price greater or lesser than fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant.
7. OPTION PERIOD:
     Each option, and all rights and obligations thereunder, by its terms, shall expire on such date as the Board of Directors may determine.
8. CONTINUATION OF EMPLOYMENT:
     Nothing contained in the Plan (or in any option granted pursuant to the Plan) shall confer upon any employee any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any parent or subsidiary corporation or interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any parent or subsidiary corporation to terminate his employment at any time or to increase or decrease his compensation from the rate in existence at the time of the granting of an option, and nothing contained herein or in any option agreement shall affect any contractual rights of an employee.

4


 

9. EXERCISE OF OPTIONS:
     Each option shall be exercisable, and the total number of shares subject thereto shall be purchasable, in such installments, which need not be equal, as the Board of Directors shall determine. Except as otherwise provided for by the Board of Directors on the grant of the option, any option granted hereunder shall be exercisable in five equal annual installments, commencing one year after the date of the grant of the option. No option or installment thereof shall be exercisable except in respect of whole shares, and fractional share interests shall be disregarded. Not less than ten shares may be purchased at any one time unless the number purchased is the total number at the time available for purchase under the option.
     Options may be exercised only by written notice to the Company, stating the number of shares being purchased and accompanied by payment in full of the option price for the number of shares being purchased by (1) cash, (2) check, (3) stock of the Company whose fair market value is at least equal to the aggregate exercise price under the option, or (4) such other consideration as the Board may approve at the time the option is granted, so long as the fair market value of such consideration is no less than the applicable exercise price for purchase of the stock.
10. NON-TRANSFERABILITY OF OPTIONS:
     Options granted under the Plan shall, by their terms, be non-transferable by the option holder other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and shall be exercisable during his lifetime only by him.
11. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT:
     If the option holder ceases to be employed by the Company or any parent or subsidiary corporation for any reason other than his death or disability, his option shall, subject to earlier termination pursuant to Section 7, expire three months thereafter (or after such shorter period as may be provided in the option), and during such period after he ceases to be an employee such

5


 

option shall be exercisable only as to that number of shares which the option holder could have purchased as of the date of such termination of employment.
12. DEATH OR DISABILITY OF EMPLOYEE:
     If any option holder dies or becomes disabled within the meaning of Section 105(d)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, while he is employed by the Company or any parent or subsidiary, or during the three month period after termination referred to in Section 11 hereof, his option shall, subject to earlier termination pursuant to Section 7, expire one year after the option holder ceases to be an employee of the Company (or after such shorter period as may be provided in the option). During such one year period the option holder, or if the option holder has died the person or persons to whom the option holder’s rights under the option have passed by will or by the applicable laws of descent and distribution, may, to the extent of the number of shares exercisable as of the date of the termination of his employment, exercise such option.
13. ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION:
     If the outstanding shares of the stock of the Company are increased, decreased, or changed into, or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares of securities of the Company through reorganization, merger, recapitalization, reclassification, stock split-up, stock dividend, stock consolidation or otherwise, an appropriate and proportionate adjustment shall be made in the number and kind of shares as to which options may be granted. A corresponding adjustment changing the number or kind of shares and the exercise price per share allocated to unexercised options or portions thereof, which options shall have been granted prior to any such change, shall likewise be made. Any such adjustment, however, in an outstanding option, shall be made without change in the total price applicable to the unexercised portion of the option but with a corresponding adjustment in the price for each share covered by the option.

6


 

     Upon the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or upon a reorganization, merger or consolidation of the Company with one or more corporations as a result of which the Company transfers substantially all of the property of the Company to another corporation, the Plan shall terminate, and any option theretofore granted hereunder shall terminate, unless, in connection with such transaction, the Company provides for the substitution of options, as defined below. In the event that provision is not made for the substitution of options in connection with a reorganization, merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving company, or a sale of substantially all of the Company’s assets, option holders shall have the right, immediately prior to or concurrently with such transaction, to exercise any unexpired option rights granted hereunder to the full extent theretofore not exercised and regardless of any installment provisions for the exercise of such option rights which may be provided in any stock option agreement entered into hereunder, but in any event subject to the expiration date of the option under the option agreement. The phrase “provides for the substitution of options” as used in this paragraph shall mean either the issuance of a new option or the assumption of the Company’s option by the surviving corporation or its parent or subsidiary in such form and on such terms and conditions that the substituted option shall meet the requirements of Section 425 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended; and the phrase “parent or subsidiary” shall have the meaning assigned in said Section 425. A substituted option shall not be less favorable to the option holder than his prior option.
     Adjustments under this Section 13 shall be made by the Board of Directors of the Company, whose determination as to what adjustments shall be made, and the extent thereof, shall be final, binding and conclusive. No fractional shares of stock shall be issued under the Plan on account of any such adjustment.

7


 

14. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION:
     This Plan shall expire on the tenth (10th) anniversary of the date of its execution. The Board of Directors of the Company may at any time suspend, amend or terminate the Plan without further action on the part of the stockholders of the Company, provided that, except as set forth in Section 13 above, no amendment may be adopted without further approval of the stockholders of the Company which will:
     (a) increase the number of shares which are to be reserved for options under the Plan;
     (b) decrease the minimum option price;
     (c) extend the maximum term of an option;
     (d) change the designation of the class of employees eligible to receive options.
     In the event the Plan is terminated by the Board of Directors or is terminated by expiration of its term as specified above, no option may be granted after such termination. The amendment or termination of the Plan shall not, without the consent of the option holder, affect the option holder’s rights under an option theretofore granted to him.
15. TIME OF GRANTING OF OPTIONS:
     The granting of an option pursuant to the Plan shall take place at the time of the Board of Directors’ action, as described herein; provided, however, that if the appropriate resolutions of the Board of Directors indicate that an option is to be granted as of and at some future date, the date of grant shall be such future date.
16. PRIVILEGES OF STOCK OWNERSHIP; PURCHASE FOR INVESTMENT:
     The holder of an option shall not be entitled to the privilege of stock ownership as to any shares of stock not actually issued and delivered to him. Upon the exercise of an option, unless

8


 

there is in effect at that time under the Securities Act of 1933 a registration statement relating to the stock issuable upon exercise thereof and available for delivery to him a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10(a) of said Act, the option holder shall, if requested by the Company, represent and warrant in writing, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, that the shares purchased are being acquired for investment and without any view to the distribution thereof and shall agree in writing to the imposition of legends on the stock certificates setting forth any restrictions upon disposition under applicable securities laws. No shares shall be purchased upon the exercise of any option unless and until any then applicable requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the California Commissioner of Corporations, or other regulatory agencies having jurisdiction, and of any securities exchanges upon which stock of the Company may be listed, shall have been fully complied with.
17. EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE PLAN:
     This Plan shall become effective and options may be granted hereunder upon its adoption by the Company’s Board of Directors. This Plan may be submitted for approval to the stock-holders of the Company at any time before or after its adoption by the Board of Directors. Notwithstanding any such approvals, however, this Plan shall not be effective until such time as a permit authorizing its implementation has been obtained from the California Commissioner of Corporations.

Exhibit 10.3
AEROVIRONMENT, INC.
NONQUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
This Nonqualified Stock Option Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made as of the _______ day of                                         , _______, by and between AeroVironment, Inc., a California corporation, with its principal office at Monrovia, California (hereinafter called the “Company”), and                                          (hereinafter called “Optionee”).
WITNESSETH:
     WHEREAS, the Board of Directors and the stockholders of the Company have adopted the AeroVironment, Inc. Nonqualified Stock Option Plan (hereinafter referred to as the “Plan”); and
     WHEREAS, the Plan is to be administered by the Company’s Board of Directors; and
     WHEREAS, the Board of Directors, at a meeting duly held, determined that Optionee should be granted an option under the Plan for the purchase of that number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock specified in Section 1 hereof at the price specified in Section 2 hereof, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and in this Agreement;
     NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS AGREED:
1. GRANT OF OPTION
     The Company hereby grants to Optionee the right and option to purchase all or any part of an aggregate of                     shares (___) of the Company’s capital stock, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and as hereinafter set forth.
     A copy of the Plan has been delivered to Optionee, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all of the terms, provisions

-1-


 

and conditions of the Plan are hereby made a part hereof for all purposes. To the extent that any provisions of this Agreement are inconsistent with those set forth in the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall be deemed to be controlling.
2. OPTION PRICE
     The option price shall be                                          Dollars ($___) per share, being at least one hundred percent (100%) of the fair market value per share as of the date of this Agreement as determined at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company.
3. WHEN OPTION MAY BE EXERCISED
     This option shall become exercisable on the anniversaries of the date hereof indicated in the following table as to the number of shares set forth opposite said respective anniversaries less the number of shares previously purchased under this option:
         
Anniversary of the Date Hereof   Number of Shares    
First
       
 
       
Second
       
 
       
Third
       
 
       
Fourth
       
 
       
Fifth
       
 
       
and such option shall remain exercisable as to all of such shares until and including the twentieth anniversary of the date hereof, which may be extended by the Board of Directors, subject however to the provisions of Sections 5 and 6 hereof. Shares as to which such option becomes exercisable pursuant to the foregoing provision may be purchased at any time thereafter prior to the expiration or termination of the option.
     Optionee acknowledges and understands that this is a nonqualified stock option plan, and that upon exercise of the option, the optionee shall become taxable on the fair market value of the stock received upon exercise of the option less the exercise price paid in connection therewith. Optionee further acknowledges and agrees that Company may

-2-


 

have a withholding obligation in connection with any such exercise, and that Company is authorized to withhold from other compensation payable to Optionee amounts necessary to provide for such withholding, or require a deposit of such funds by Optionee prior to the delivery of shares to be issued upon exercise of the option. Company shall have no obligation with respect to the tax liability of Optionee created hereunder.
4. OPTION PERSONAL TO OPTIONEE
     This option may be exercised during the life of Optionee only by him and may not be assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, sold or otherwise disposed of in whole or in part, either voluntarily or involuntarily; any attempted assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation, sale or other disposition will be void and of no effect; and if voluntarily entered into by Optionee, shall terminate the option. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of Optionee’s death prior to the full exercise of this option, it may be transferred under his will to, and exercised by, Optionee’s personal representative or other such transferee or by operation of the laws of descent and distribution in accordance with Section 6.
5. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT
     No part of this option may be exercised more than three months after the termination of Optionee’s employment with the Company except in the case of his death or disability (as defined in Section 105(d)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) during said three month period. This option shall in no way confer upon Optionee any rights to remain in the employ of the Company. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 5, the maximum number of shares as to which this option may be exercised during the aforesaid three month period following termination of employment shall be the remaining number of shares which Optionee could have purchased, pursuant to Section 3 hereof, on the date of termination of his employment.
6. DEATH OR DISABILITY OF OPTIONEE

-3-


 

     If Optionee should die or become disabled within the meaning of Section 105(d)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, while employed by the Company or within any three month period after termination of his employment during which he is entitled to exercise the option pursuant to Section 5 hereof, this option, to the extent not previously exercised and in an amount not exceeding the number of shares Optionee could have purchased hereunder on the date of termination of employment, may be exercised by the Optionee, or if the Optionee has died, by his personal representative, heir or legatee, in whole or in part within twelve months after the Optionee ceases to be an employee of the Company (but not later than the final date set forth in Section 3 hereof).
7. LEAVE OF ABSENCE
     Military or sick leave shall not be considered a termination of employment for any purpose under this Agreement unless such period exceeds 90 days and the Optionee’s right to reemployment is not guaranteed either by statute or by contract, in which case the employment relationship shall be deemed to have terminated on the 91st day of such leave.
8. PARENT, SUBSIDIARY AND SUCCESSOR OF THE COMPANY
     All reference herein to the Company shall be deemed to include any parent or subsidiary of the Company (as defined in Section 425 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended), unless the context shall otherwise require or indicate.
9. EXERCISE OF OPTION
     This option or any portion thereof shall be exercised by written notice delivered to the Company at its then principal offices, setting forth the number of shares with respect to which the option is being exercised, accompanied by the full amount of the purchase price, in the form of a certified or cashier’s check, or cash, or, if deemed acceptable at the discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company, stock of the Company whose fair market value equals the exercise price per share of the option multiplied by the number of shares being purchased, or such other lawful consideration as is determined acceptable by the Board of Directors at their discretion. Upon receipt of notice and payment as aforesaid,

-4-


 

the Company shall promptly make arrangement for the issuance to Optionee of the number of shares as to which this option was exercised. Provided, however, that if any law or any regulation of any regulatory agency or other body having jurisdiction in the premises shall require any action to be taken in connection with the shares specified in said notice, then the delivery date of such shares shall be extended for a period reasonably necessary to permit the Company to take such action. Provided further that the Company shall not be obligated to issue shares pursuant to the option if counsel for the Company determines that such issuance would or would likely be in violation of any applicable securities laws. The Company reserves the right to require that the Optionee, prior to receipt of the shares, represent and warrant in writing, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, that the shares purchased are being acquired without any view to the distribution thereof and agree in writing to the imposition of legends on the stock certificates setting forth any restrictions upon disposition under applicable securities laws.
     In the event Optionee wishes to sell any shares purchased pursuant to this option prior to the expiration of (a) one year from the date of their issuance, or (b) two years from the date of the granting of this option, he shall notify the Company in writing not less than thirty days prior to such sale.
10. FRACTIONAL SHARES
     Notwithstanding any other provisions herein to the contrary, the Optionee shall in no event be entitled to exercise his option for any fractional shares and any such fractional interests shall be disregarded.
11. ADJUSTMENT UPON CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION
     The shares subject to this option shall be subject to equitable and proportionate adjustment by the Board of Directors in the manner set forth in Section 13 of the Plan in the event of the occurrence of any of the events specified therein.

12. SHARES SUBJECT TO STOCK REPURCHASE AGREEMENT
     Notwithstanding any other Section of this Agreement, under Section 2 of the Plan, and pursuant to this Section 12, the stock to be received upon exercise of this option Agreement will be subject to a Stock Repurchase Agreement to be executed, at the time any or all of this option grant is first exercised, between the Company and the Optionee, which Stock Repurchase Agreement will be in substantially the same form as Exhibit “A” hereto. Notwithstanding any other Section of this Agreement, the Company need not issue any stock to Optionee pursuant to this Agreement unless and until the parties hereto execute a Stock Repurchase Agreement as described above.
     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the date first above written.

Exhibit 10.4
AEROVIRONMENT, INC.
DIRECTORS’ NONQUALIFIED STOCK OPTION PLAN
1. PURPOSE:
     The purpose of this Directors’ Nonqualified Stock Option Plan (hereinafter referred to as the “Plan”) is to provide a means whereby Directors of AeroVironment, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as the “Company”), or any parent or subsidiary thereof, may be given an opportunity to purchase stock in the Company by grant of options which are intended to constitute nonqualified stock options. The underlying objectives which the Plan seeks to accomplish are to retain the services of Directors of the Company and its subsidiaries and to grant to such Directors an opportunity to acquire proprietary interests in the business and thereby provide an added incentive to increase the Company’s earnings.
2. ADMINISTRATION:
     This Plan shall be administered by the Board of Directors of the Company. Subject to the express provisions of the Plan, the Board of Directors shall have the authority to construe and interpret the Plan and to define the terms used herein, to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the administration of the Plan, to determine the duration and purpose of leaves of absence which may be granted to participants without constituting a termination of their position as a Director for the purposes of the Plan, to grant the options and to make all other determinations necessary or desirable for the administration of the Plan. The Board of Directors may insert into any options granted under this Plan any other terms, provisions, and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be determined by the Board of Directors. Specifically, the Board of Directors may, among other things, provide any or all Nonqualified Stock Option Agreements pursuant to which options are granted under this Plan that the Company’s stock to

 


 

be received upon the exercise of the option will be subject to a Stock Repurchase Agreement, which Stock Repurchase Agreement the Company may require any grantee under this Plan to execute and be bound by as a condition for receiving the Company’s stock pursuant to the exercise of options granted under this Plan. The determination of the Board of Directors on the matters referred to in this Section 2 shall be conclusive. For purposes of this Plan, however, matters related to any member of the Board of Directors shall be acted upon by Directors of the Company excluding the interested Director.
     The Board of Directors may appoint a committee consisting of not less than three Directors who shall serve at the pleasure of the Board of Directors to administer the Plan. Such committee shall have all or such part of the authority of the Board of Directors with respect to the Plan as provided in the resolution establishing the committee or in resolutions adopted from time to time thereafter. If such a committee is established, references herein to the Board of Directors shall be deemed to mean such committee to the extent appropriate in light of the authority of such committee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no instance shall a committee which includes as a member the Director for whose benefit the option is to be created have authority to act with respect to such option, and the action of the committee members excluding such interested Director shall have the authority otherwise provided such committee by the Board.
3. STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN:
     The stock to be offered under the Plan shall be shares of the Company’s authorized but unissued capital stock or any shares of authorized but unissued stock into which such shares are changed, reclassified or converted. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 14 hereof, the aggregate number of shares to be delivered upon exercise of all options granted under the Plan may not exceed the lesser of ten thousand (10,000) shares or thirty percent (30%) of the total of

2


 

the then outstanding shares of the issuer and then outstanding options to purchase shares of the issuer. If any option shall expire or terminate for any reason without having been exercised in full, the unpurchased shares subject thereto shall revert to the Plan and again be available for the purposes of the Plan.
     It is the intention in establishing this Plan that options shall be granted to allow the purchase of stock at an amount substantially equivalent to the fair market value of the stock as of the date of the grant of the option. The Board of Directors shall have discretion to determine what constitutes fair market value of the stock of the Company as of the date of grant of options under this Plan, and whether options should, if ever, be issued at an exercise price less than fair market value at the date of grant of the option.
4. OBLIGATION OF COMPANY TO ISSUE SHARES:
     The Plan, and the grant and exercise of options thereunder, and the Company’s obligation to sell and deliver stock under such options, shall be subject to all applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations and to such approvals by any regulatory agencies as may be required or advisable. In no event shall the Company be required to issue fractional shares upon the exercise of an option. This Plan is intended to serve as a discretionary plan exercisable by the Board of Directors to allow the grant of options to certain Directors of the Company. The adoption of this Plan shall not imply any obligation or undertaking of any nature on the part of the Company to issue options other than as determined in the discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company.
5. ELIGIBILITY:
     Directors of the Company or of any parent or subsidiary corporation (as that term is defined in Section 425 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended) shall be eligible for selection to participate in the Plan. No Director shall be disqualified to receive such an option

3


 

merely because he is already a shareholder of the Company nor merely because he is a member of the Board of Directors of the Company. The Board of Directors shall determine the individuals to whom options shall be granted, the terms and provisions of the respective option agreements (which need not be identical), the time at which such options shall be granted, and the number of shares subject to each option, and the Board of Directors shall grant such options. An individual who has been granted an option may, if he is otherwise eligible, be granted an additional option or options if the Board of Directors shall so determine.
6. OPTION PRICE:
     The option price per share of stock purchasable under options granted pursuant to the Plan shall be determined by the Board of Directors. It is intended that options will in most instances be issued at a price not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the fair market value of the common stock of the Company on the day the option is granted. For the purposes hereof, the fair market value of the Company’s common stock shall be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors each time an option is granted hereunder, acting upon such information and advice as it shall deem necessary, which determination shall be conclusive. The Board of Directors may, however, in their discretion, grant options at an exercise price greater or lesser than fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, issuance of stock to any employee, Director or consultant of the Company must be issued at an exercise price which is not less than eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair value of the stock at the time the option is granted, except that the price shall be one hundred ten percent (110%) of the fair value in the case of any person who owns stock possessing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or its parent or subsidiary corporations.

4


 

7. OPTION PERIOD:
     Each option, and all rights and obligations thereunder, by its terms, shall expire on such date as the Board of Directors may determine. No option shall be issued for an exercise period in excess of one hundred twenty (120) months from the date the option is granted.
8. CONTINUATION OF EMPLOYMENT:
     Nothing contained in the Plan (or in any option granted pursuant to the Plan) shall confer upon any Director any right to remain a Director or an employee of the Company or any parent or subsidiary corporation or interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any parent or subsidiary corporation to terminate such Director’s position as a Director or an employee of the Company at any time or to increase or decrease his compensation from the rate in existence at the time of the granting of an option, and nothing contained herein or in any option agreement shall affect any contractual rights of a Director of the Company.
9. EXERCISE OF OPTIONS:
     Each option shall be exercisable, and the total number of shares subject thereto shall be purchasable, in such installments, which need not be equal, as the Board of Directors shall determine. Except as otherwise provided for by the Board of Directors on the grant of the option, any option granted hereunder shall be exercisable in five (5) equal annual installments, commencing one (1) year after the date of the grant of the option. No option or installment thereof shall be exercisable except in respect of whole shares, and fractional share interests shall be disregarded. Not less than ten (10) shares may be purchased at any one time unless the number purchased is the total number at the time available for purchase under the option.
     Options may be exercised only by written notice to the Company, stating the number of shares being purchased and accompanied by payment in full of the option price for the number of shares being purchased by (1) cash, (2) check, (3) stock of the Company whose fair market value

5


 

is at least equal to the aggregate exercise price under the option, or (4) such other consideration as the Board may approve at the time the option is granted, so long as the fair market value of such consideration is no less than the applicable exercise price for purchase of the stock.
10. NON-TRANSFERABILITY OF OPTIONS:
     Options granted under the Plan shall, by their terms, be non-transferable by the option holder other than by will or similar device of testamentary disposition or equivalent or the laws of descent and distribution, and shall be exercisable during his lifetime only by him.
11. TERMINATION OF POSITION AS DIRECTOR:
     If the option holder ceases to be Director of the Company or any parent or subsidiary corporation for any reason other than his death or disability, his option shall, subject to earlier termination pursuant to Section 7, expire three (3) months thereafter (or upon termination of the term of the option if shorter than such period), and during such period after he ceases to be a Director such option shall be exercisable only as to that number of shares which the option holder could have purchased as of the date of such termination.
12. DEATH OR DISABILITY OF DIRECTOR:
     If any option holder dies or becomes disabled within the meaning of Section 105(d)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, while he is a Director the Company or any parent or subsidiary, or during the three (3) month period after termination referred to in Section 11 hereof, his option shall, subject to earlier termination pursuant to Section 7, expire one (1) year after the option holder ceases to be a Director of the Company (or after such shorter period as may be provided in the option). During such one (1) year period the option holder, or if the option holder has died the person or persons to whom the option holder’s rights under the option have passed by will or similar testamentary device or equivalent or by the applicable laws of

6


 

descent and distribution, may, to the extent of the number of shares exercisable as of the date of the termination of his Directorship, exercise such option.
13. ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION:
     If the outstanding shares of the stock of the Company are increased, decreased, or changed into, or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares of securities of the Company through reorganization, merger, recapitalization, reclassification, stock split-up, stock dividend, stock consolidation or otherwise, an appropriate and proportionate adjustment shall be made in the number and kind of shares as to which options may be granted. A corresponding adjustment changing the number or kind of shares and the exercise price per share allocated to unexercised options or portions thereof, which options shall have been granted prior to any such change, shall likewise be made. Any such adjustment, however, in an outstanding option, shall be made without change in the total price applicable to the unexercised portion of the option but with a corresponding adjustment in the price for each share covered by the option.
     Upon the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or upon a reorganization, merger or consolidation of the Company with one or more corporations as a result of which the Company transfers substantially all of the property of the Company to another corporation, the Plan shall terminate, and any option theretofore granted hereunder shall terminate, unless, in connection with such transaction, the Company provides for the substitution of options, as defined below. In the event that provision is not made for the substitution of options in connection with a reorganization, merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving company, or a sale of substantially all of the Company’s assets, option holders shall have the right, immediately prior to or concurrently with such transaction, to exercise any unexpired option rights granted hereunder to the full extent theretofore not exercised and regardless of any installment provisions for the exercise of such option rights which may be provided in any stock

7


 

option agreement entered into hereunder, but in any event subject to the expiration date of the option under the option agreement. The phrase “provides for the substitution of options” as used in this paragraph shall mean either the issuance of a new option or the assumption of the Company’s option by the surviving corporation or its parent or subsidiary in such form and on such terms and conditions that the substituted option shall meet the requirements of Section 425 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended; and the phrase “parent or subsidiary” shall have the meaning assigned in said Section 425. A substituted option shall not be less favorable to the option holder than his prior option.
     Adjustments under this Section 13 shall be made by the Board of Directors of the Company, whose determination as to what adjustments shall be made, and the extent thereof, shall be final, binding and conclusive. No fractional shares of stock shall be issued under the Plan on account of any such adjustment.
14. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION:
     This Plan shall expire on the tenth (10th) anniversary of the date of its execution. The Board of Directors of the Company may at any time suspend, amend or terminate the Plan without further action on the part of the stockholders of the Company, provided that, except as set forth in Section 13 above, no amendment may be adopted without further approval of the stockholders of the Company which will:
     (a) increase the number of shares which are to be reserved for options under the Plan;
     (b) decrease the minimum option price;
     (c) extend the maximum term of an option;
     (d) change the designation of the class eligible to receive options.

8


 

     In the event the Plan is terminated by the Board of Directors or is terminated by expiration of its term as specified above, no option may be granted after such termination. The amendment or termination of the Plan shall not, without the consent of the option holder, affect the option holder’s rights under an option theretofore granted to him.
15. TIME OF GRANTING OF OPTIONS:
     The granting of an option pursuant to the Plan shall take place at the time of the Board of Directors’ action, as described herein; provided, however, that if the appropriate resolutions of the Board of Directors indicate that an option is to be granted as of and at some future date, the date of grant shall be such future date.
16. PRIVILEGES OF STOCK OWNERSHIP; PURCHASE FOR INVESTMENT:
     The holder of an option shall not be entitled to the privilege of stock ownership as to any shares of stock not actually issued and delivered to him. Upon the exercise of an option, unless there is in effect at that time under the Securities Act of 1933 a registration statement relating to the stock issuable upon exercise thereof and available for delivery to him a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10(a) of said Act, the option holder shall, if requested by the Company, represent and warrant in writing, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, that the shares purchased are being acquired for investment and without any view to the distribution thereof and shall agree in writing to the imposition of legends on the stock certificates setting forth any restrictions upon disposition under applicable securities laws. No shares shall be purchased upon the exercise of any option unless and until any then applicable requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the California Commissioner of Corporations, or other regulatory agencies having jurisdiction, and of any securities exchanges upon which stock of the Company may be listed, shall have been fully complied with.

9


 

17. EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE PLAN:
     This Plan shall become effective and options may be granted hereunder upon its adoption by the Company’s Board of Directors. This Plan may be submitted for approval to the stock-holders of the Company at any time before or after its adoption by the Board of Directors. Notwithstanding any such approvals, however, this Plan shall not be effective until such time as a permit authorizing its implementation has been obtained from the California Commissioner of Corporations.

WITNESSETH:
     WHEREAS, the Board of Directors and the stockholders of the Company have adopted the AeroVironment, Inc. Directors’ Nonqualified Stock Option Plan (hereinafter referred to as the “Plan”); and
     WHEREAS, the Plan is to be administered by the Company’s Board of Directors; and
     WHEREAS, the Board of Directors, at a meeting duly held, determined that Optionee should be granted an option under the Plan for the purchase of that number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock specified in Section 1 hereof at the price specified in Section 2 hereof, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and in this Agreement;
     NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS AGREED:
1. GRANT OF OPTION

-1-


 

and conditions of the Plan are hereby made a part hereof for all purposes. To the extent that any provisions of this Agreement are inconsistent with those set forth in the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall be deemed to be controlling.
2. OPTION PRICE

Shares as to which such option becomes exercisable pursuant to the foregoing provision may be purchased at any time thereafter prior to the expiration or termination of the option.
     Optionee acknowledges and understands that this is a nonqualified stock option plan, and that upon exercise of the option, the optionee shall become taxable on the fair market value of the stock received upon exercise of the option less the exercise price paid in connection therewith. Optionee further acknowledges and agrees that Company may

-2-


 

have a withholding obligation in connection with any such exercise, and that Company is authorized to withhold from other compensation payable to Optionee amounts necessary to provide for such withholding, or require a deposit of such funds by Optionee prior to the delivery of shares to be issued upon exercise of the option. Company shall have no obligation with respect to the tax liability of Optionee created hereunder.
4. OPTION PERSONAL TO OPTIONEE
     This option may be exercised during the life of Optionee only by him and may not be assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, sold or otherwise disposed of in whole or in part, either voluntarily or involuntarily; any attempted assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation, sale or other disposition will be void and of no effect; and if voluntarily entered into by Optionee, shall terminate the option.

7. PARENT, SUBSIDIARY AND SUCCESSOR OF THE COMPANY
     All reference herein to the Company shall be deemed to include any parent or subsidiary of the Company (as defined in Section 425 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended), unless the context shall otherwise require or indicate.
8. EXERCISE OF OPTION
     This option or any portion thereof shall be exercised by written notice delivered to the Company at its then principal offices, setting forth the number of shares with respect to which the option is being exercised, accompanied by the full amount of the purchase price, in the form of a certified or cashier’s check, or cash, or, if deemed acceptable at the discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company, stock of the Company whose fair market value equals the exercise price per share of the option multiplied by the number of shares being purchased, or such other lawful consideration as is determined acceptable by the Board of Directors at their discretion. Upon receipt of notice and payment as aforesaid, the Company shall promptly make arrangement for the issuance to Optionee of the number of shares as to which this option was exercised. Provided, however, that if any law or any regulation of any regulatory agency or other body having jurisdiction in the premises shall require any action to be taken in connection with the shares specified in said notice, then

-4-


 

the delivery date of such shares shall be extended for a period reasonably necessary to permit the Company to take such action. Provided further that the Company shall not be obligated to issue shares pursuant to the option if counsel for the Company determines that such issuance would or would likely be in violation of any applicable securities laws. The Company reserves the right to require that the Optionee, prior to receipt of the shares, represent and warrant in writing, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, that the shares purchased are being acquired without any view to the distribution thereof and agree in writing to the imposition of legends on the stock certificates setting forth any restrictions upon disposition under applicable securities laws.
     In the event Optionee wishes to sell any shares purchased pursuant to this option prior to the expiration of (a) one year from the date of their issuance, or (b) two years from the date of the granting of this option, he shall notify the Company in writing not less than thirty (30) days prior to such sale.

-5-


 

hereto. Notwithstanding any other Section of this Agreement, the Company need not issue any stock to Optionee pursuant to this Agreement unless and until the parties hereto execute a Stock Repurchase Agreement as described above.
     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the date first above written.

     3. Stock Subject to the Plan. Subject to the provisions of Section 13 of the Plan, the shares of stock subject to Options or Stock Purchase Rights shall be Common Stock, initially shares of the Company’s Common Stock, no par value. Subject to the provisions of Section 13 of the Plan, the maximum aggregate number of Shares which may be issued upon exercise of such Options or Stock Purchase Rights shall be equal to fifty percent (50%) of the Total Shares, as adjusted from time to time as additional Equity Capital is contributed to the Company, less the number of options to purchase shares of Common Stock granted by the Company under option plans other than the Plan, but not in excess of 500,000 Shares.

promptly record any such adjustment on its books and records, and any adjustment so recorded shall be presumptively correct absent manifest error. Shares issued upon exercise of Options or Stock Purchase Rights may be authorized but unissued, or reacquired Common Stock. If an Option or Stock Purchase Right expires or becomes unexercisable without having been exercised in full, the unpurchased Shares which were subject thereto shall become available for future grant or sale under the Plan (unless the Plan has terminated). Shares which are delivered by the Holder or withheld by the Company upon the exercise of an Option or Stock Purchase Right under the Plan, in payment of the exercise price thereof or tax withholding thereon, may again be optioned, granted or awarded hereunder, subject to the limitations of this Section 3. If Shares of Restricted Stock are repurchased by the Company at their original purchase price, such Shares shall become available for future grant under the Plan. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 3, no Shares may again be optioned, granted or awarded if such action would cause an Incentive Stock Option to fail to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option under Code Section 422.
     4. Administration of the Plan.
          (a) Administrator. Unless and until the Board delegates administration to a Committee as set forth below, the Plan shall be administered by the Board. The Board may delegate administration of the Plan to a Committee or Committees of one or more members of the Board, and the term “Committee” shall apply to any person or persons to whom such authority has been delegated. If administration is delegated to a Committee, the Committee shall have, in connection with the administration of the Plan, the powers theretofore possessed by the Board, including the power to delegate to a subcommittee any of the administrative powers the Committee is authorized to exercise (and references in this Plan to the Board shall thereafter be to the Committee or subcommittee), subject, however, to such resolutions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as may be adopted from time to time by the Board. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, from and after the Public Trading Date, a Committee of the Board shall administer the Plan and the Committee shall consist solely of two or more Independent Directors each of whom is both an “outside director,” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code, and a “non-employee director” within the meaning of Rule 16b-3. Within the scope of such authority, the Board or the Committee may (i) delegate to a committee of one or more members of the Board who are not Independent Directors the authority to grant awards under the Plan to eligible persons who are either (1) not then “covered employees,” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code and are not expected to be “covered employees” at the time of recognition of income resulting from such award or (2) not persons with respect to whom the Company wishes to comply with Section 162(m) of the Code and/or (ii) delegate to a committee of one or more members of the Board who are not “non-employee directors,” within the meaning of Rule 16b-3, the authority to grant awards under the Plan to eligible persons who are not then subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act. The Board may abolish the Committee at any time and revest in the Board the administration of the Plan. Appointment of Committee members shall be effective upon acceptance of appointment. Committee members may resign at any time by delivering written notice to the Board. Vacancies in the Committee may only be filled by the Board.

v


 

          (b) Powers of the Administrator. Subject to the provisions of the Plan and the specific duties delegated by the Board to such Committee, and subject to the approval of any relevant authorities, the Administrator shall have the authority in its sole discretion:
               (i) to determine the Fair Market Value;
               (ii) to select the Service Providers to whom Options and Stock Purchase Rights may from time to time be granted hereunder;
               (iii) to determine the number of Shares to be covered by each such award granted hereunder;
               (iv) to approve forms of agreement for use under the Plan;
               (v) to determine the terms and conditions of any Option or Stock Purchase Right granted hereunder (such terms and conditions include, but are not limited to, the exercise price, the time or times when Options or Stock Purchase Rights may vest or be exercised (which may be based on performance criteria), any vesting acceleration or waiver of forfeiture restrictions, and any restriction or limitation regarding any Option or Stock Purchase Right or the Common Stock relating thereto, based in each case on such factors as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine);
               (vi) to determine whether to offer to buyout a previously granted Option as provided in subsection 10(i) and to determine the terms and conditions of such offer and buyout (including whether payment is to be made in cash or Shares);
               (vii) to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan, including rules and regulations relating to sub-plans established for the purpose of qualifying for preferred tax treatment under foreign tax laws;
               (viii) to allow Holders to satisfy withholding tax obligations by electing to have the Company withhold from the Shares to be issued upon exercise of an Option or Stock Purchase Right that number of Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum amount required to be withheld based on the statutory withholding rates for federal and state tax purposes that apply to supplemental taxable income. The Fair Market Value of the Shares to be withheld shall be determined on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined. All elections by Holders to have Shares withheld for this purpose shall be made in such form and under such conditions as the Administrator may deem necessary or advisable;
               (ix) to amend the Plan or any Option or Stock Purchase Right granted under the Plan as provided in Section 15; and
               (x) to construe and interpret the terms of the Plan and awards granted pursuant to the Plan and to exercise such powers and perform such acts as the Administrator

vi


 

deems necessary or desirable to promote the best interests of the Company which are not in conflict with the provisions of the Plan.
          (c) Effect of Administrator’s Decision. All decisions, determinations and interpretations of the Administrator shall be final and binding on all Holders.
     5. Eligibility. Non-Qualified Stock Options and Stock Purchase Rights may be granted to Service Providers. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to Employees. If otherwise eligible, Service Providers who have been granted an Option or Stock Purchase Right may be granted additional Options or Stock Purchase Rights.
     6. Limitations.
          (a) Each Option shall be designated by the Administrator in the Option Agreement as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Non-Qualified Stock Option. However, notwithstanding such designations, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of Shares subject to a Holder’s Incentive Stock Options and other incentive stock options granted by the Company, any Parent or Subsidiary, which become exercisable for the first time during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary) exceeds $100,000, such excess Options or other options shall be treated as Non-Qualified Stock Options.
          For purposes of this Section 6(a), Incentive Stock Options shall be taken into account in the order in which they were granted, and the Fair Market Value of the Shares shall be determined as of the time of grant.
          (b) Neither the Plan, any Option nor any Stock Purchase Right shall confer upon a Holder any right with respect to continuing the Holder’s employment or consulting relationship with the Company, nor shall they interfere in any way with the Holder’s right or the Company’s right to terminate such employment or consulting relationship at any time, with or without cause.
          (c) No Service Provider shall be granted, in any calendar year, Options or Stock Purchase Rights to purchase more than 31,595 Shares; provided, however, that the foregoing limitation shall not apply prior to the Public Trading Date and, following the Public Trading Date, the foregoing limitation shall not apply until the earliest of: (i) the first material modification of the Plan (including any increase in the number of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan in accordance with Section 3); (ii) the issuance of all of the shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan; (iii) the expiration of the Plan; (iv) the first meeting of stockholders at which Directors of the Company are to be elected that occurs after the close of the third calendar year following the calendar year in which occurred the first registration of an equity security of the Company under Section 12 of the Exchange Act; or (v) such other date required by Section 162(m) of the Code and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The foregoing limitation shall be adjusted proportionately in connection with any change in the Company’s capitalization as described in Section 13. For purposes of this Section 6(c), if an

vii


 

Option is canceled in the same calendar year it was granted (other than in connection with a transaction described in Section 13), the canceled Option will be counted against the limit set forth in this Section 6(c). For this purpose, if the exercise price of an Option is reduced, the transaction shall be treated as a cancellation of the Option and the grant of a new Option.
     7. Term of Plan. The Plan shall become effective upon its initial adoption by the Board and shall continue in effect until it is terminated under Section 15 of the Plan. No Options or Stock Purchase Rights may be issued under the Plan after the tenth (10th) anniversary of the earlier of (i) the date upon which the Plan is adopted by the Board or (ii) the date the Plan is approved by the stockholders.
     8. Term of Option. The term of each Option shall be stated in the Option Agreement; provided, however, that the term shall be no more than ten (10) years from the date of grant thereof. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Holder who, at the time the Option is granted, owns (or is treated as owning under Code Section 424) stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the term of the Option shall be five (5) years from the date of grant or such shorter term as may be provided in the Option Agreement.
     9. Option Exercise Price and Consideration.
          (a) The per share exercise price for the Shares to be issued upon exercise of an Option shall be such price as is determined by the Administrator, but shall be subject to the following:
               (i) In the case of an Incentive Stock Option
                    (A) granted to an Employee who, at the time of grant of such Option, owns (or is treated as owning under Code Section 424) stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.
                    (B) granted to any other Employee, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.
               (ii) In the case of a Non-Qualified Stock Option
                    (A) granted to a Service Provider who, at the time of grant of such Option, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, the exercise price shall be no less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of the grant.

viii


 

                    (B) granted to any other Service Provider, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than eighty-five percent (85%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.
               (iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Options may be granted with a per Share exercise price other than as required above pursuant to a merger or other corporate transaction.
          (b) The consideration to be paid for the Shares to be issued upon exercise of an Option, including the method of payment, shall be determined by the Administrator (and, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, shall be determined at the time of grant). Such consideration may consist of (1) cash, (2) check, (3) with the consent of the Administrator, a full recourse promissory note bearing interest (at no less than such rate as shall then preclude the imputation of interest under the Code) and payable upon such terms as may be prescribed by the Administrator, (4) with the consent of the Administrator, other Shares which (x) in the case of Shares acquired from the Company, have been owned by the Holder for more than six (6) months on the date of surrender, and (y) have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to which such Option shall be exercised, (5) with the consent of the Administrator, surrendered Shares then issuable upon exercise of the Option having a Fair Market Value on the date of exercise equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Option or exercised portion thereof, (6) property of any kind which constitutes good and valuable consideration, (7) with the consent of the Administrator, delivery of a notice that the Holder has placed a market sell order with a broker with respect to Shares then issuable upon exercise of the Options and that the broker has been directed to pay a sufficient portion of the net proceeds of the sale to the Company in satisfaction of the Option exercise price, provided, that payment of such proceeds is then made to the Company upon settlement of such sale, or (8) with the consent of the Administrator, any combination of the foregoing methods of payment.
     10. Exercise of Option.
          (a) Vesting; Fractional Exercises. Options granted hereunder shall be vested and exercisable according to the terms hereof at such times and under such conditions as determined by the Administrator and set forth in the Option Agreement; provided, however, that, except with regard to Options granted to Officers, Directors or Consultants, in no event shall an Option granted hereunder become vested and exercisable at a rate of less than twenty percent (20%) per year over five (5) years from the date the Option is granted, subject to reasonable conditions, such as continuing to be a Service Provider. An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share.
          (b) Deliveries upon Exercise. All or a portion of an exercisable Option shall be deemed exercised upon delivery of all of the following to the Secretary of the Company or his or her office:

ix


 

               (i) A written or electronic notice complying with the applicable rules established by the Administrator stating that the Option, or a portion thereof, is exercised. The notice shall be signed by the Holder or other person then entitled to exercise the Option or such portion of the Option;
               (ii) Such representations and documents as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or advisable to effect compliance with Applicable Laws. The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, also take whatever additional actions it deems appropriate to effect such compliance, including, without limitation, placing legends on share certificates and issuing stop transfer notices to agents and registrars;
               (iii) Upon the exercise of all or a portion of an unvested Option pursuant to Section 10(h), a Restricted Stock purchase agreement in a form determined by the Administrator and signed by the Holder or other person then entitled to exercise the Option or such portion of the Option; and
               (iv) In the event that the Option shall be exercised pursuant to Section 10(f) by any person or persons other than the Holder, appropriate proof of the right of such person or persons to exercise the Option.
          (c) Conditions to Delivery of Share Certificates. The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate or certificates for Shares purchased upon the exercise of any Option or portion thereof prior to fulfillment of all of the following conditions:
               (i) The admission of such Shares to listing on all stock exchanges on which such class of stock is then listed;
               (ii) The completion of any registration or other qualification of such Shares under any state or federal law, or under the rulings or regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other governmental regulatory body which the Administrator shall, in its sole discretion, deem necessary or advisable;
               (iii) The obtaining of any approval or other clearance from any state or federal governmental agency which the Administrator shall, in its sole discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable;
               (iv) The lapse of such reasonable period of time following the exercise of the Option as the Administrator may establish from time to time for reasons of administrative convenience; and
               (v) The receipt by the Company of full payment for such Shares, including payment of any applicable withholding tax, which in the sole discretion of the Administrator may be in the form of consideration used by the Holder to pay for such Shares under Section 9(b).

x


 

          (d) Termination of Relationship as a Service Provider. If a Holder ceases to be a Service Provider other than by reason of the Holder’s disability or death, such Holder may exercise his or her Option within such period of time as is specified in the Option Agreement to the extent that the Option is vested on the date of termination; provided, however, that prior to the Public Trading Date, such period of time shall not be less than thirty (30) days (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of the Option as set forth in the Option Agreement). In the absence of a specified time in the Option Agreement, the Option shall remain exercisable for three (3) months following the Holder’s termination. If, on the date of termination, the Holder is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option immediately cease to be issuable under the Option and shall again become available for issuance under the Plan. If, after termination, the Holder does not exercise his or her Option within the time period specified herein, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option shall again become available for issuance under the Plan.
          (e) Disability of Holder. If a Holder ceases to be a Service Provider as a result of the Holder’s disability, the Holder may exercise his or her Option within such period of time as is specified in the Option Agreement to the extent the Option is vested on the date of termination; provided, however, that prior to the Public Trading Date, such period of time shall not be less than six (6) months (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement). In the absence of a specified time in the Option Agreement, the Option shall remain exercisable for twelve (12) months following the Holder’s termination. If such disability is not a “disability” as such term is defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option such Incentive Stock Option shall automatically cease to be treated as an Incentive Stock Option and shall be treated for tax purposes as a Non-Qualified Stock Option from and after the day which is three (3) months and one (1) day following such termination. If, on the date of termination, the Holder is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option shall immediately cease to be issuable under the Option and shall again become available for issuance under the Plan. If, after termination, the Holder does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option shall again become available for issuance under the Plan.
          (f) Death of Holder. If a Holder dies while a Service Provider, the Option may be exercised within such period of time as is specified in the Option Agreement; provided, however, that prior to the Public Trading Date, such period of time shall not be less than six (6) months (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Notice of Grant), by the Holder’s estate or by a person who acquires the right to exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance, but only to the extent that the Option is vested on the date of death. In the absence of a specified time in the Option Agreement, the Option shall remain exercisable for twelve (12) months following the Holder’s termination. If, at the time of death, the Holder is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option shall immediately cease to be issuable under the Option and shall again become available for issuance under the Plan. The Option may be exercised by the executor or administrator of the Holder’s estate or, if none, by the person(s) entitled to exercise the Option

xi


 

under the Holder’s will or the laws of descent or distribution. If the Option is not so exercised within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option shall again become available for issuance under the Plan.
          (g) Regulatory Extension. A Holder’s Option Agreement may provide that if the exercise of the Option following the termination of the Holder’s status as a Service Provider (other than upon the Holder’s death or Disability) would be prohibited at any time solely because the issuance of shares would violate the registration requirements under the Securities Act, then the Option shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the expiration of the term of the Option set forth in Section 8 or (ii) the expiration of a period of three (3) months after the termination of the Holder’s status as a Service Provider during which the exercise of the Option would not be in violation of such registration requirements.
          (h) Early Exercisability. The Administrator may provide in the terms of a Holder’s Option Agreement that the Holder may, at any time before the Holder’s status as a Service Provider terminates, exercise the Option in whole or in part prior to the full vesting of the Option; provided, however, that subject to Section 20, Shares acquired upon exercise of an Option which has not fully vested may be subject to any forfeiture, transfer or other restrictions as the Administrator may determine in its sole discretion.
          (i) Buyout Provisions. The Administrator may at any time offer to buyout for a payment in cash or Shares, an Option previously granted, based on such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall establish and communicate to the Holder at the time that such offer is made.
     11. Non-Transferability of Options and Stock Purchase Rights. Options and Stock Purchase Rights may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the Holder, only by the Holder.
     12. Stock Purchase Rights.
          (a) Rights to Purchase. Stock Purchase Rights may be issued either alone, in addition to, or in tandem with Options granted under the Plan and/or cash awards made outside of the Plan. After the Administrator determines that it will offer Stock Purchase Rights under the Plan, it shall advise the offeree in writing of the terms, conditions and restrictions related to the offer, including the number of Shares that such person shall be entitled to purchase, the price to be paid, and the time within which such person must accept such offer; provided, however, that to the extent required to comply with applicable securities laws, the purchase price of such Shares shall not be less than the purchase price requirements set forth in Section 260.140.42 of Title 10 of the California Code of Regulations. The offer shall be accepted by execution of a Restricted Stock purchase agreement in the form determined by the Administrator.

xii


 

          (b) Repurchase Right. Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, the Restricted Stock purchase agreement shall grant the Company the right to repurchase Shares acquired upon exercise of a Stock Purchase Right upon the termination of the purchaser’s status as a Service Provider for any reason. Subject to Section 20, the purchase price for Shares repurchased by the Company pursuant to such repurchase right and the rate at which such repurchase right shall lapse shall be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion, and shall be set forth in the Restricted Stock purchase agreement.
          (c) Other Provisions. The Restricted Stock purchase agreement shall contain such other terms, provisions and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion.
          (d) Rights as a Shareholder. Once the Stock Purchase Right is exercised, the purchaser shall have rights equivalent to those of a shareholder and shall be a shareholder when his or her purchase is entered upon the records of the duly authorized transfer agent of the Company. No adjustment shall be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the Stock Purchase Right is exercised, except as provided in Section 13 of the Plan.
     13. Adjustments upon Changes in Capitalization, Merger or Asset Sale.
          (a) In the event that any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Common Stock, other securities, or other property), recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin off, combination, repurchase, liquidation, dissolution, or sale, transfer, exchange or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or exchange of Common Stock or other securities of the Company, issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase Common Stock or other securities of the Company, or other similar corporate transaction or event, affects the Common Stock, then the Administrator shall make an equitable and proportional adjustment to all Options, Stock Purchase Rights or Restricted Stock granted or to be granted under the Plan, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended by the Company to be made available under the Plan. The form of such adjustment shall be determined by the Administrator in its discretion, but may take the form of an adjustment in:
               (i) the number and kind of shares of Common Stock (or other securities or property) with respect to which Options or Stock Purchase Rights may be granted or awarded (including, but not limited to, adjustments of the limitations in Section 3 on the maximum number and kind of shares which may be issued and adjustments of the maximum number of Shares that may be purchased by any Holder in any calendar year pursuant to Section 6(c)); and/or

          (b) In the event of any transaction or event described in Section 13(a), the Administrator, in its sole discretion, and on such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate, either by the terms of the Option, Stock Purchase Right or Restricted Stock or by action taken prior to the occurrence of such transaction or event and either automatically or upon the Holder’s request, is hereby authorized to take any one or more of the following actions whenever the Administrator determines that such action is appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended by the Company to be made available under the Plan or with respect to any Option, Stock Purchase Right or Restricted Stock granted or issued under the Plan or to facilitate such transaction or event:
               (i) To provide for either the purchase of any such Option, Stock Purchase Right or Restricted Stock for an amount of cash equal to the amount that could have been obtained upon the exercise of such Option or Stock Purchase Right or realization of the Holder’s rights had such Option, Stock Purchase Right or Restricted Stock been currently exercisable or payable or fully vested or the replacement of such Option, Stock Purchase Right or Restricted Stock with other rights or property selected by the Administrator in its sole discretion;
               (ii) To provide that such Option or Stock Purchase Right shall be exercisable as to all shares covered thereby, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or the provisions of such Option or Stock Purchase Right;
               (iii) To provide that such Option, Stock Purchase Right or Restricted Stock be assumed by the successor or survivor corporation or entity, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, or shall be substituted for by similar options, rights or awards covering the stock of the successor or survivor corporation or entity, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and prices;
               (iv) To make adjustments in the number and type of shares of Common Stock (or other securities or property) subject to outstanding Options and Stock Purchase Rights, and/or in the terms and conditions of (including the grant or exercise price), and the criteria included in, outstanding Options, Stock Purchase Rights or Restricted Stock or Options, Stock Purchase Rights or Restricted Stock which may be granted in the future; and
               (v) To provide that immediately upon the consummation of such event, such Option or Stock Purchase Right shall not be exercisable and shall terminate; provided, that for a specified period of time prior to such event, such Option or Stock Purchase Right shall be exercisable as to all Shares covered thereby, and the restrictions imposed under an Option Agreement or Restricted Stock purchase agreement upon some or all Shares may be terminated and, in the case of Restricted Stock, some or all shares of such Restricted Stock may

xiv


 

cease to be subject to repurchase, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or the provisions of such Option, Stock Purchase Right or Restricted Stock purchase agreement.
          (c) Subject to Section 3, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, include such further provisions and limitations in any Option, Stock Purchase Right, Restricted Stock agreement or certificate, as it may deem equitable and in the best interests of the Company.
          (d) If the Company undergoes an Acquisition, then any surviving corporation or entity or acquiring corporation or entity, or affiliate of such corporation or entity, may assume any Options, Stock Purchase Rights or Restricted Stock outstanding under the Plan or may substitute similar stock awards (including an award to acquire the same consideration paid to the stockholders in the transaction described in this subsection 13(d)) for those outstanding under the Plan. In the event any surviving corporation or entity or acquiring corporation or entity in an Acquisition, or affiliate of such corporation or entity, does not assume such Options, Stock Purchase Rights or Restricted Stock or does not substitute similar stock awards for those outstanding under the Plan, then with respect to (i) Options, Stock Purchase Rights or Restricted Stock held by participants in the Plan whose status as a Service Provider has not terminated prior to such event, the vesting of such Options, Stock Purchase Rights or Restricted Stock (and, if applicable, the time during which such awards may be exercised) shall be accelerated and made fully exercisable and all restrictions thereon shall lapse at least ten (10) days prior to the closing of the Acquisition (and the Options or Stock Purchase Rights terminated if not exercised prior to the closing of such Acquisition), and (ii) any other Options or Stock Purchase Rights outstanding under the Plan, such Options or Stock Purchase rights shall be terminated if not exercised prior to the closing of the Acquisition.
          (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Company becomes a party to a transaction that is intended to qualify for “pooling of interests” accounting treatment and, but for one or more of the provisions of this Plan or any Option Agreement or any Restricted Stock purchase agreement would so qualify, then this Plan and any such agreement shall be interpreted so as to preserve such accounting treatment, and to the extent that any provision of the Plan or any such agreement would disqualify the transaction from pooling of interests accounting treatment (including, if applicable, an entire Option Agreement or Restricted Stock purchase agreement), then such provision shall be null and void. All determinations to be made in connection with the preceding sentence shall be made by the independent accounting firm whose opinion with respect to “pooling of interests” treatment is required as a condition to the Company’s consummation of such transaction.
          (f) The existence of the Plan, any Option Agreement or Restricted Stock purchase agreement and the Options or Stock Purchase Rights granted hereunder shall not affect or restrict in any way the right or power of the Company or the stockholders of the Company to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other change in the Company’s capital structure or its business, any merger or consolidation of the Company, any issue of stock or of options, warrants or rights to purchase stock or of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference stocks whose rights are superior to or affect the Common Stock or

xv


 

the rights thereof or which are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.
     14. Time of Granting Options and Stock Purchase Rights. The date of grant of an Option or Stock Purchase Right shall, for all purposes, be the date on which the Administrator makes the determination granting such Option or Stock Purchase Right, or such other date as is determined by the Administrator. Notice of the determination shall be given to each Employee or Consultant to whom an Option or Stock Purchase Right is so granted within a reasonable time after the date of such grant.
     15. Amendment and Termination of the Plan.
          (a) Amendment and Termination. The Board may at any time wholly or partially amend, alter, suspend or terminate the Plan. However, without approval of the Company’s stockholders given within twelve (12) months before or after the action by the Board, no action of the Board may, except as provided in Section 13, increase the limits imposed in Section 3 on the maximum number of Shares which may be issued under the Plan or extend the term of the Plan under Section 7.
          (b) Stockholder Approval. The Board shall obtain stockholder approval of any Plan amendment to the extent necessary and desirable to comply with Applicable Laws.
          (c) Effect of Amendment or Termination. No amendment, alteration, suspension or termination of the Plan shall impair the rights of any Holder, unless mutually agreed otherwise between the Holder and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the Holder and the Company. Termination of the Plan shall not affect the Administrator’s ability to exercise the powers granted to it hereunder with respect to Options, Stock Purchase Rights or Restricted Stock granted or awarded under the Plan prior to the date of such termination.
     16. Stockholder Approval. The Plan will be submitted for the approval of the Company’s stockholders within twelve (12) months after the date of the Board’s initial adoption of the Plan. Options, Stock Purchase Rights or Restricted Stock may be granted or awarded prior to such stockholder approval, provided that such Options, Stock Purchase Rights and Restricted Stock shall not be exercisable, shall not vest and the restrictions thereon shall not lapse prior to the time when the Plan is approved by the stockholders, and provided further that if such approval has not been obtained at the end of said twelve-month period, all Options, Stock Purchase Rights and Restricted Stock previously granted or awarded under the Plan shall thereupon be canceled and become null and void.
     17. Inability to Obtain Authority. The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, shall relieve the

xvi


 

Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained.
     18. Reservation of Shares. The Company, during the term of this Plan, shall at all times reserve and keep available such number of Shares as shall be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Plan.
     19. Information to Holders and Purchasers. Prior to the Public Trading Date and to the extent required by Section 260.140.46 of Title 10 of the California Code of Regulations, the Company shall provide to each Holder and to each individual who acquires Shares pursuant to the Plan, not less frequently than annually during the period such Holder or purchaser has one or more Options or Stock Purchase Rights outstanding, and, in the case of an individual who acquires Shares pursuant to the Plan, during the period such individual owns such Shares, copies of annual financial statements. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Company shall not be required to provide such statements to key employees whose duties in connection with the Company assure their access to equivalent information.
     20. Repurchase Provisions. The Administrator in its sole discretion may provide that the Company may repurchase Shares acquired upon exercise of an Option or Stock Purchase Right upon the occurrence of certain specified events, including, without limitation, a Holder’s termination as a Service Provider, divorce, bankruptcy or insolvency; provided, however, that any such repurchase right shall be set forth in the applicable Option Agreement or Restricted Stock purchase agreement or in another agreement referred to in such agreement and, provided further, that to the extent required by Section 260.140.41 and Section 260.140.42 of Title 10 of the California Code of Regulations, any such repurchase right set forth in an Option or Stock Purchase Right granted prior to the Public Trading Date to a person who is not an Officer, Director or Consultant shall be upon the following terms: (i) if the repurchase option gives the Company the right to repurchase the shares upon termination as a Service Provider at not less than the Fair Market Value of the shares to be purchased on the date of termination of status as a Service Provider, then (A) the right to repurchase shall be exercised for cash or cancellation of purchase money indebtedness for the shares within ninety (90) days of termination of status as a Service Provider (or in the case of shares issued upon exercise of Options or Stock Purchase Rights after such date of termination, within ninety (90) days after the date of the exercise) or such longer period as may be agreed to by the Administrator and the Plan participant and (B) the right terminates when the shares become publicly traded; and (ii) if the repurchase option gives the Company the right to repurchase the Shares upon termination as a Service Provider at the original purchase price for such Shares, then (A) the right to repurchase at the original purchase price shall lapse at the rate of at least twenty percent (20%) of the shares per year over five (5) years from the date the Option or Stock Purchase Right is granted (without respect to the date the Option or Stock Purchase Right was exercised or became exercisable) and (B) the right to repurchase shall be exercised for cash or cancellation of purchase money indebtedness for the shares within ninety (90) days of termination of status as a Service Provider (or, in the case of shares issued upon exercise of Options or Stock Purchase Rights, after such date of termination,

xvii


 

within ninety (90) days after the date of the exercise) or such longer period as may be agreed to by the Company and the Plan participant.
     21. Investment Intent. The Company may require a Plan participant, as a condition of exercising or acquiring stock under any Option or Stock Purchase Right, (i) to give written assurances satisfactory to the Company as to the participant’s knowledge and experience in financial and business matters and/or to employ a purchaser representative reasonably satisfactory to the Company who is knowledgeable and experienced in financial and business matters and that he or she is capable of evaluating, alone or together with the purchaser representative, the merits and risks of exercising the Option or Stock Purchase Right; and (ii) to give written assurances satisfactory to the Company stating that the participant is acquiring the stock subject to the Option or Stock Purchase Right for the participant’s own account and not with any present intention of selling or otherwise distributing the stock. The foregoing requirements, and any assurances given pursuant to such requirements, shall be inoperative if (A) the issuance of the shares upon the exercise or acquisition of stock under the applicable Option or Stock Purchase Right has been registered under a then currently effective registration statement under the Securities Act or (B) as to any particular requirement, a determination is made by counsel for the Company that such requirement need not be met in the circumstances under the then applicable securities laws. The Company may, upon advice of counsel to the Company, place legends on stock certificates issued under the Plan as such counsel deems necessary or appropriate in order to comply with applicable securities laws, including, but not limited to, legends restricting the transfer of the stock.
     22. Governing Law. The validity and enforceability of this Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California without regard to otherwise governing principles of conflicts of law.

2002 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN
STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
     Unless otherwise defined herein, the terms defined in the Plan shall have the same defined meanings in this Stock Option Agreement.
I. NOTICE OF STOCK OPTION GRANT
     [Optionee]
     [Address]
     You (“Optionee”) have been granted an option to purchase Common Stock of the Company, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Stock Option Agreement. The terms of your grant are set forth below:

Vesting Commencement Date:
       
 
       
Exercise Price per Share: 
      $_____per share
Total Number of Shares Granted:

Type of Option:
      Incentive Stock Option
 
       
 
       
 
      Non-Qualified Stock Option
 
       
 
       
Term/Expiration Date:
       
     Exercise and Vesting Schedule:
     The Shares subject to this Option shall vest according to the following schedule:
     [Twenty percent (20%) of the Shares subject to the Option (rounded down to the next whole number of shares) shall vest on each annual anniversary of the Vesting Commencement Date so that all of the Shares shall be vested on the fifth annual anniversary of the Vesting Commencement Date.]

 


 

     Termination Period:
     This Option may be exercised, to the extent vested, for thirty (30) days after Optionee ceases to be a Service Provider, or such longer period as may be applicable upon the death or disability of Optionee as provided herein (or, if not provided herein, then as provided in the Plan), but in no event later than the Term/Expiration Date as provided above.
II. AGREEMENT
     1. Grant of Option. The Company hereby grants to the Optionee an Option to purchase the Common Stock (the “Shares”) set forth in the Notice of Grant, at the exercise price per share set forth in the Notice of Grant (the “Exercise Price”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary anywhere else in this Option Agreement, this grant of an Option is subject to the terms, definitions and provisions of the AeroVironment, Inc. 2002 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) adopted by the Company, which is incorporated herein by reference.
          If designated in the Notice of Grant as an Incentive Stock Option, this Option is intended to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option as defined in Section 422 of the Code; provided, however, that to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options (within the meaning of Code Section 422, but without regard to Code Section 422(d)), including the Option, are exercisable for the first time by the Optionee during any calendar year (under the Plan and all other incentive stock option plans of the Company or any Subsidiary) exceeds $100,000, such options shall be treated as not qualifying under Code Section 422, but rather shall be treated as Non-Qualified Stock Options to the extent required by Code Section 422. The rule set forth in the preceding sentence shall be applied by taking options into account in the order in which they were granted. For purposes of these rules, the Fair Market Value of stock shall be determined as of the time the option with respect to such stock is granted.
     2. Exercise of Option. This Option is exercisable as follows:
          (a) Right to Exercise.
               (i) This Option shall be exercisable cumulatively according to the vesting schedule set out in the Notice of Grant. For purposes of this Stock Option Agreement, Shares subject to this Option shall vest based on Optionee’s continued status as a Service Provider.
               (ii) This Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share.
               (iii) In the event of Optionee’s death, disability or other termination of the Optionee’s status as a Service Provider, the exercisability of the Option is governed by Sections 7, 8 and 9 below.
               (iv) In no event may this Option be exercised after the date of expiration of the term of this Option as set forth in the Notice of Grant.

2


 

          (b) Method of Exercise. This Option shall be exercisable by written Notice (in the form attached as Exhibit A). The Notice must state the number of Shares for which the Option is being exercised, and such other representations and agreements with respect to such shares of Common Stock as may be required by the Company pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. The Notice must be signed by the Optionee and shall be delivered in person or by certified mail to the Secretary of the Company. The Notice must be accompanied by payment of the Exercise Price, including payment of any applicable withholding tax. This Option shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company of such written Notice accompanied by the Exercise Price and payment of any applicable withholding tax.
          No Shares shall be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option unless such issuance and such exercise comply with all relevant provisions of law and the requirements of any stock exchange upon which the Shares may then be listed. Assuming such compliance, for income tax purposes the Shares shall be considered transferred to the Optionee on the date on which the Option is exercised with respect to such Shares.
     3. Optionee’s Representations. If the Shares purchasable pursuant to the exercise of this Option have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), at the time this Option is exercised, Optionee shall, if required by the Company, concurrently with the exercise of all or any portion of this Option, deliver to the Company his or her Investment Representation Statement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B.
     4. Lock-Up Period. Optionee hereby agrees that if so requested by the Company or any representative of the underwriters (the “Managing Underwriter”) in connection with any registration of the offering of any securities of the Company under the Securities Act, Optionee shall not sell or otherwise transfer any Shares or other securities of the Company during the 180-day period (or such longer period as may be requested in writing by the Managing Underwriter and agreed to in writing by the Company) (the “Market Standoff Period”) following the effective date of a registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act; provided, however, that such restriction shall apply only to the first registration statement of the Company to become effective under the Securities Act that includes securities to be sold on behalf of the Company to the public in an underwritten public offering under the Securities Act. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to securities subject to the foregoing restrictions until the end of such Market Standoff Period.
     5. Method of Payment. Payment of the Exercise Price shall be by any of the following, or a combination thereof, at the election of the Optionee:
          (a) cash;
          (b) check;
          (c) with the consent of the Administrator, a full recourse promissory note bearing interest (at no less than a market rate of interest which shall also preclude the imputation of interest under the Code) and payable upon such terms as may be prescribed by the Administrator;

3


 

          (d) with the consent of the Administrator, surrender of other shares of Common Stock of the Company which (A) in the case of Shares acquired from the Company, have been owned by the Optionee for more than six (6) months on the date of surrender, and (B) have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the Exercise Price of the Shares as to which the Option is being exercised;
          (e) with the consent of the Administrator, surrendered Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Option having a Fair Market Value on the date of exercise equal to the aggregate Exercise Price of the Option or exercised portion thereof;
          (f) with the consent of the Administrator, property of any kind which constitutes good and valuable consideration; or
          (g) with the consent of the Administrator, delivery of a notice that the Optionee has placed a market sell order with a broker with respect to Shares then issuable upon exercise of the Option and that the broker has been directed to pay a sufficient portion of the net proceeds of the sale to the Company in satisfaction of the aggregate Exercise Price; provided, that payment of such proceeds is then made to the Company upon settlement of such sale.
     6. Restrictions on Exercise. This Option may not be exercised until the Plan has been approved by the stockholders of the Company. If the issuance of Shares upon such exercise or if the method of payment for such shares would constitute a violation of any applicable federal or state securities or other law or regulation, then the Option may also not be exercised. The Company may require Optionee to make any representation and warranty to the Company as may be required by any applicable law or regulation before allowing the Option to be exercised.
     7. Termination of Relationship. If Optionee ceases to be a Service Provider (other than by reason of the Optionee’s death or the total and permanent disability of the Optionee as defined in Code Section 22(e)(3)), Optionee may exercise this Option during the Termination Period set out in the Notice of Grant, to the extent the Option was vested at the date of such termination. To the extent that Optionee was not vested in this Option at the date on which Optionee ceases to be a Service Provider, or if Optionee does not exercise this Option within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate.
     8. Disability of Optionee. If Optionee ceases to be a Service Provider as a result of his or her total and permanent disability as defined in Code Section 22(e)(3), Optionee may exercise the Option to the extent the Option was vested at the date on which Optionee ceases to be a Service Provider, but only within twelve (12) months from such date (and in no event later than the expiration date of the term of this Option as set forth in the Notice of Grant). To the extent that the Option is not vested at the date on which Optionee ceases to be a Service Provider, or if Optionee does not exercise such Option within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate.
     9. Death of Optionee. If Optionee ceases to be a Service Provider as a result of the death of Optionee, the vested portion of the Option may be exercised at any time within twelve (12) months following the date of death (and in no event later than the expiration date of the term of this Option as set forth in the Notice of Grant) by Optionee’s estate or by a person

4


 

who acquires the right to exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance. To the extent that the Option is not vested at the date of death, or if the Option is not exercised within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate.
     10. Non-Transferability of Option. This Option may not be transferred in any manner except by will or by the laws of descent or distribution . It may be exercised during the lifetime of Optionee only by Optionee. The terms of this Option shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of the Optionee.
     11. Term of Option. This Option may be exercised only within the term set out in the Notice of Grant.
     12. Restrictions on Shares. Optionee hereby agrees that Shares purchased upon the exercise of the Option shall be subject to such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall determine in its sole discretion, including, without limitation, restrictions on the transferability of Shares, the right of the Company to repurchase Shares, and a right of first refusal in favor of the Company with respect to permitted transfers of Shares. Such terms and conditions may, in the Administrator’s sole discretion, be contained in the Exercise Notice with respect to the Option or in such other agreement as the Administrator shall determine and which the Optionee hereby agrees to enter into at the request of the Company.

Effective as of today,                     , ___, the undersigned (“Optionee”) hereby elects to exercise Optionee’s option to purchase ___shares of the Common Stock (the “Shares”) of AeroVironment, Inc. (the “Company”) under and pursuant to the AeroVironment, Inc. 2002 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) and the ¨ Incentive ¨ Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreement dated                     , ___, (the “Option Agreement”).
     2. Representations of Optionee. Optionee acknowledges that Optionee has received, read and understood the Plan and the Option Agreement. Optionee agrees to abide by and be bound by their terms and conditions.
     3. Rights as Stockholder. Until the stock certificate evidencing such Shares is issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder shall exist with respect to Shares subject to the Option, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option. The Company shall issue (or cause to be issued) such stock certificate promptly after the Option is exercised. No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the stock certificate is issued, except as provided in Section 11 of the Plan.
          Optionee shall enjoy rights as a stockholder until such time as Optionee disposes of the Shares or the Company and/or its assignee(s) exercises the Right of First Refusal hereunder. Upon such exercise, Optionee shall have no further rights as a holder of the Shares so purchased except the right to receive payment for the Shares so purchased in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, and Optionee shall forthwith cause the certificate(s) evidencing the Shares so purchased to be surrendered to the Company for transfer or cancellation.
     4. Optionee’s Rights to Transfer Shares.
          (a) Company’s Right of First Refusal. Before any Shares held by Optionee or any permitted transferee (each, a “Holder”) may be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or otherwise disposed of (including transfer by gift or operation of law and, collectively, “Transfer” or “Transferred”), the Company or its assignee(s) shall have a right of first refusal to purchase the Shares on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section (the “Right of First Refusal”).

 


 

               (i) Notice of Proposed Transfer. The Holder of the Shares shall deliver to the Company a written notice (the “Notice”) stating: (i) the Holder’s bona fide intention to sell or otherwise Transfer such Shares; (ii) the name of each proposed purchaser or other transferee (“Proposed Transferee”); (iii) the number of Shares to be Transferred to each Proposed Transferee; and (iv) the bona fide cash price or other consideration for which the Holder proposes to Transfer the Shares (the “Offered Price”), and the Holder shall offer the Shares at the Offered Price to the Company or its assignee(s).
               (ii) Exercise of Right of First Refusal. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Notice, the Company and/or its assignee(s) may elect in writing to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Shares proposed to be Transferred to any one or more of the Proposed Transferees. The purchase price will be determined in accordance with subsection (c) below.
               (iii) Purchase Price. The purchase price (“Purchase Price”) for the Shares repurchased under this Section shall be the Offered Price. If the Offered Price includes consideration other than cash, the cash equivalent value of the non-cash consideration shall be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith.
               (iv) Payment. Payment of the Purchase Price shall be made, at the option of the Company or its assignee(s), in cash (by check), by cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness of the Holder to the Company (or, in the case of repurchase by an assignee, to the assignee), or by any combination thereof within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Notice or in the manner and at the times set forth in the Notice.
               (v) Holder’s Right to Transfer. If all of the Shares proposed in the Notice to be transferred to a given Proposed Transferee are not purchased by the Company and/or its assignee(s) as provided in this Section, then the Holder may sell or otherwise Transfer such Shares to that Proposed Transferee at the Offered Price or at a higher price, provided that such sale or other Transfer is consummated within one hundred twenty (120) days after the date of the Notice and provided further that any such sale or other Transfer is effected in accordance with any applicable securities laws and the Proposed Transferee agrees in writing that the provisions of this Section shall continue to apply to the Shares in the hands of such Proposed Transferee. If the Shares described in the Notice are not Transferred to the Proposed Transferee within such period, a new Notice shall be given to the Company, and the Company and/or its assignees shall again be offered the Right of First Refusal as provided herein before any Shares held by the Holder may be sold or otherwise Transferred.
          (b) Exception for Certain Family Transfers and Transfers to Other Stockholders. Anything to the contrary contained in this Section notwithstanding, the following Transfers shall be exempt from the Right of First Refusal: (i) a Transfer of any or all of the Shares during the Optionee’s lifetime or on the Optionee’s death by will or intestacy to the Optionee’s Immediate Family or a trust for the benefit of the Optionee’s Immediate Family and (ii) a Transfer to any other stockholder of the Company. As used herein, “Immediate Family” shall mean spouse, lineal descendant or antecedent, father, mother, brother or sister or stepchild (whether or not adopted).

2


 

Refusal) and there shall be no further Transfer of such Shares except in accordance with the terms of this Section.
          (c) Termination of Right of First Refusal. The Right of First Refusal shall terminate as to all Shares upon the first to occur of (i) ninety (90) days after a sale of Common Stock of the Company to the general 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 (a “Public Offering”), or (ii) a sale of the Company (whether by merger, consolidation, sale or all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or sale of all of the Company’s capital stock) which is approved by the holders of the Company’s securities representing at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the combined voting power of all outstanding securities of the Company.
     5. Company Call Right.
          (a) Upon the occurrence of any Purchase Event (as defined below), the Company shall have the right to purchase from Optionee, or Optionee’s personal representative, as the case may be, any or all of the Shares (and any shares of the Company’s Common Stock issued to the Optionee with respect to the Shares as a result of any reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization, stock split, stock dividend, combination or similar transaction) owned by the Optionee as of the date of the Company’s exercise of its purchase right under this Section 5 (the “Call Right”) at the Purchase Price (as defined below).
          (b) The Company may exercise the Company Call Right by delivering personally or by registered mail to Optionee (or his authorized transferee or legal representative, as the case may be), within ninety (90) days of the Purchase Event, a notice in writing indicating the Company’s intention to exercise the Company Call Right and setting forth a date for closing not later than thirty (30) days from the mailing of such notice (the “Closing Date”). The closing shall take place at the Company’s office. At the closing, the holder of the certificates for the Shares being transferred shall deliver the stock certificate or certificates evidencing the Shares, and the Company shall deliver the purchase price therefor.
          (c) The Purchase Price may be paid to the Optionee, or Optionee’s personal representative, as the case may be, at the option of the Company, by either of the following methods:
               (i) Payment in full in cash on the Closing Date; or
               (ii) Cancellation of purchase money indebtedness.
          (d) The Company Call Right shall terminate as to all Shares upon the first to occur of (i) ninety days (90) days following the date of the Purchase Event, if the Company does not elect to exercise the Company Call Right by giving the requisite notice within such time, (ii) a Public Offering, or (iii) a sale of the Company (whether by merger, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or sale of all of the Company’s capital stock) which is approved by the holders of the Company’s securities representing at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the combined voting power of all outstanding securities of the Company.

          (e) As used herein, “Purchase Event” shall mean (i) death of the Holder, (ii) termination of the Optionee’s Service Provider relationship with the Company for any reason, or (iii) a bona fide proposal by the Optionee to mortgage, pledge or otherwise encumber all or a part of the Shares (and any shares of the Company’s Common Stock issued to the Optionee with respect to the Shares as a result of any reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization, stock split, stock dividend, combination or similar transaction) to which the Company does not consent within the ten (10) days following the Company’s receipt of notice of such proposal from the Optionee.
          (f) As used herein, “Purchase Price” shall be determined in accordance with the following provisions.

               (ii) If no Substantial Sale of stock of the Company has occurred within one (1) year of the Purchase Event, the Purchase Price shall be determined by (a) multiplying the Company’s pre-tax profit, excluding extraordinary items, for the one (1) year period ending on the Valuation Date (as determined pursuant to the Company’s unaudited financial statements for the periods then ended) by six (6) and dividing the product thus obtained by the number of shares of the Company’s stock outstanding as of the Valuation Date, assuming that that all vested stock options outstanding as of the date of the calculation were exercised as of such Valuation Date on the terms applicable to such options; or (b) such other method or manner as the Administrator shall determine in its sole discretion is reasonable and appropriate in light of the circumstances of the Company at the time of such determination.

               (v) Should any adjustments be required upon audit of the Company’s unaudited financial statements, or in order to assure the reporting pursuant to the unaudited financial statements as in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the Purchase Price determined hereunder shall be retroactively adjusted. Equitable adjustment shall be made in the event of one or more stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividend or comparable events. Each party expressly acknowledges and agrees that the formula described herein is a

SECURITY
  :   COMMON STOCK

In connection with the purchase of the above-listed Securities, the undersigned Optionee represents to the Company the following:
          (a) Optionee is aware of the Company’s business affairs and financial condition and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the Securities. Optionee is acquiring these Securities for investment for Optionee’s own account only and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any “distribution” thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
          (b) Optionee acknowledges and understands that the Securities constitute “restricted securities” under the Securities Act and have not been registered under the Securities Act in reliance upon a specific exemption therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of Optionee’s investment intent as expressed herein. In this connection, Optionee understands that, in the view of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the statutory basis for such exemption may be unavailable if Optionee’s representation was predicated solely upon a present intention to hold these Securities for the minimum capital gains period specified under tax statutes, for a deferred sale, for or until an increase or decrease in the market price of the Securities, or for a period of one year or any other fixed period in the future. Optionee further understands that the Securities must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. Optionee further acknowledges and understands that the Company is under no obligation to register the Securities. Optionee understands that the certificate evidencing the Securities will be imprinted with a legend which prohibits the transfer of the Securities unless they are registered or such registration is not required in the opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company and any other legend required under applicable state securities laws.
          (c) Optionee is familiar with the provisions of Rule 701 and Rule 144, each promulgated under the Securities Act, which, in substance, permit limited public resale of “restricted securities” acquired, directly or indirectly from the issuer thereof, in a non-public offering subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. Rule 701 provides that if the issuer qualifies under Rule 701 at

 


 

the time of the grant of the Option to the Optionee, the exercise will be exempt from registration under the Securities Act. In the event the Company becomes subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, ninety (90) days thereafter (or such longer period as any market stand-off agreement may require) the Securities exempt under Rule 701 may be resold, subject to the satisfaction of certain of the conditions specified by Rule 144, including: (1) the resale being made through a broker in an unsolicited “broker’s transaction” or in transactions directly with a market maker (as said term is defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934); and, in the case of an affiliate, (2) the availability of certain public information about the Company, (3) the amount of Securities being sold during any three (3) month period not exceeding the limitations specified in Rule 144(e), and (4) the timely filing of a Form 144, if applicable.
          In the event that the Company does not qualify under Rule 701 at the time of grant of the Option, then the Securities may be resold in certain limited circumstances subject to the provisions of Rule 144, which requires the resale to occur not less than one year after the later of the date the Securities were sold by the Company or the date the Securities were sold by an affiliate of the Company, within the meaning of Rule 144; and, in the case of acquisition of the Securities by an affiliate, or by a non-affiliate who subsequently holds the Securities less than two (2) years, the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in sections (1), (2), (3) and (4) of the paragraph immediately above.
          (d) Optionee further understands that in the event all of the applicable requirements of Rule 701 or 144 are not satisfied, registration under the Securities Act, compliance with Regulation A, or some other registration exemption will be required; and that, notwithstanding the fact that Rules 144 and 701 are not exclusive, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a registered offering and otherwise than pursuant to Rules 144 or 701 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales, and that such persons and their respective brokers who participate in such transactions do so at their own risk. Optionee understands that no assurances can be given that any such other registration exemption will be available in such event.

     The Plan Administrator shall be responsible for the general administration and management of the Plan. The Plan Administrator shall have all powers and duties necessary to fulfill its responsibilities, including, but not limited to, the following powers and duties:

3


 

          (a) To delegate all or part of its function as Plan Administrator to others and to revoke any such delegation;
          (b) To determine all questions relating to the eligibility of individuals to participate;
          (c) To maintain all records necessary for the administration of the Plan;
          (d) To select and engage attorneys, accountants, actuaries, trustees, appraisers, brokers, consultants, administrators, physicians, or other persons to render service or advice with regard to any responsibility the Plan Administrator or the Board has under the Plan, or otherwise, to designate such persons to carry out administrative duties under the Plan, and (together with the Plan Administrator, the Company, the Board and the officers and employees of the Company) to rely upon the advice, opinions or valuations of any such persons, to the extent permitted by law, being fully protected in acting or relying thereon in good faith;
          (e) To interpret the Plan and any relevant facts for purpose of the administration and application of the Plan, in a manner not inconsistent with the Plan or applicable law and to amend or revoke any such interpretation; and
          (f) To administer the claims procedures as provided in Section 6.4.
     6.2 Final Effect of Administrator Action
     Except as set provided in Section 6.4, all actions taken and all determinations made by the Plan Administrator shall, unless arbitrary and capricious, be final and binding upon all Participants, the Company, and any person interested in the Plan.
     6.3 Indemnification by the Company; Liability Insurance
     The Company shall pay or reimburse any of the Company’s officers, directors, or employees for all expenses incurred by such persons with respect to, and shall indemnify and hold them harmless from, all claims, liability and costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of the good faith performance of their duties under the Plan. The Company may obtain and provide for any such person, at the Company’s expense, liability insurance against liabilities imposed on such person by law.
     6.4 Claims Procedure
          (a) Normally, no one must file a formal claim in order to receive rights or benefits under this Plan. However, if any person (a “claimant”) does not believe he or she will receive the benefits to which the person is entitled or believes that the Plan is not being operated properly, the claimant must file a formal claim under the procedures set forth in this section. A formal claim must be filed within 6 months of the date on which the claimant (or his predecessor in interest) first knew (or should have known) of the facts on which the claim is based.
          (b) A claim by any person shall be presented to the Plan Administrator in writing. A claims official appointed by the Plan Administrator (which may be a person or a

4


 

committee) shall, within 90 days of receiving the claim, consider the claim and issue a determination thereon in writing. The claims official may extend the determination period for up to an additional 90 days by giving the claimant written notice, normally before the expiration of the initial 90-day claim consideration period, setting forth the reasons why additional time is needed and the expected date by which the claim determination will be made. If the claim is granted, the benefits or relief the claimant seeks will be provided.
          (c) If the claim is wholly or partially denied, the claims official shall, within 90 days (or such longer period as described above), provide the claimant with written notice of the denial, written in a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant. If the claims official fails to respond to the claim in a timely manner, the claimant may treat the claim as having been denied by the claims official and may appeal the denial pursuant to subsection (d).
          (d) Each claimant shall have the opportunity to appeal in writing the claims official’s denial of a claim to a review official (which may be a person or a committee, and can be the claims official) designated by the Plan Administrator for a full and fair review. A claimant must request review of a denied claim within 60 days after his receipt of written notice of denial of his claim. In connection with the review proceeding, the claimant or his duly authorized representative may review pertinent documents and may submit arguments, documents, and other evidence in support of the claim. Any theories that the claimant does not in good faith pursue through the review stage of the procedure shall be treated as having been irrevocably waived.
          (e) The decision by the review official shall be made not later than 60 days after the Plan Administrator receives the written request for review. The claims official may extend the review period for up to an additional 60 days by giving the claimant written notice, normally before the expiration of the initial 60-day claim review period, setting forth the reasons why additional time is needed and the expected date by which the claim review decision will be made.
          (f) The decision on review shall be in writing and shall include specific reasons for the decision written in a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant.
          (g) The Plan Administrator shall adopt procedures pursuant to which claims shall be handled and may, in its discretion, adopt different procedures for different claims without being bound by past actions. Any procedures adopted, however, shall be designed to afford a claimant a full and fair review of his claim and shall comply with applicable law.
          (h) If a claimant pursued his claim through the review stage of the claims procedure and the claim was denied (or the review official failed to decide the claim on a timely basis, in which case it shall be deemed denied), the claimant will be permitted to appeal the denial by final and binding arbitration in accordance with the arbitration agreement or provision, if any, with respect to the Company or its affiliates to which the claimant is a signatory or otherwise bound, notwithstanding anything in it to the contrary. In no event shall any claim to which this procedure applies be subject to resolution by any means (such as in a court of law) other than by this claim procedure, nor shall any claim that can be appealed through final and binding arbitration be appealed though any other manner.

5


 

          (i) Except as prohibited by law, this section shall apply to a claim notwithstanding any failure by the Plan Administrator or its delegates to follow the procedures in this section with respect to the claim. However, an arbitrator reviewing such a claim may permit a claimant to present additional evidence or theories if the arbitrator determines that the claimant was precluded from presenting them during the claim and review procedures due to procedural errors of the Plan Administrator or its delegates.
ARTICLE VII.
AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF THE PLAN
     7.1 Amendments
          (a) The Company reserves the right at any time to amend, merge, consolidate, divide, or otherwise restructure the Plan, prospectively or retroactively, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.
          (b) All amendments and other changes shall be adopted in writing by the Plan Administrator, except as otherwise authorized by the Plan.
          (c) A Plan amendment or Plan provision that increases Plan benefits shall only apply prospectively and only with respect to a Participant who has provided service to the Company on or after the effective date of the amendment or provision, unless the amendment or provision expressly provides otherwise.
          (d) Except as provided in subsection (c), all rights under the Plan shall be determined under the terms of the Plan as in effect at the time the determination is made.
          (e) Any amendment to this Plan or any exercise of discretion under it that would either cause tax penalties to be imposed under Code Section 409A or cause any Plan benefits that are not subject to that section to cease to become grandfathered and, therefore, become subject to it, shall be void unless it is clear from the circumstances that those consequences were intended.
     7.2 Discontinuance of Benefit Accrual Termination of Plan
          (a) The Plan is intended to be a permanent program, but the Company shall have the right at any time to declare the Plan terminated or to discontinue benefit accrual under the Plan completely as to it or as to any of the Company’s divisions, facilities, operational units, or job classifications.
          (b) This section is not intended to create, nor shall it be construed as creating, any contractual rights.

ARTICLE VIII.
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
     8.1 Payments
          (a) Payment of benefits to the person entitled thereto may be sent by first class mail, address correction requested, to the last known address on file with the Plan Administrator.
          (b) Payments to Participants may be postponed by the Plan Administrator until any anticipated taxes, expenses, or amounts to be paid under a qualified domestic relations order have been paid in full or until it is determined that such charges will not be imposed.
     8.2 Corrections
          (a) Notwithstanding any other Plan provision, the Plan Administrator may correct administrative errors or other mistakes, including misrepresentations about Plan eligibility, benefits, or terms, and may allocate restorative contributions or similar amounts in any way it determines to be appropriate.
          (b) The Plan shall be interpreted by the Plan Administrator in accordance with the terms of the Plan and their intended meanings. The Plan Administrator normally shall administer the Plan in accordance with its terms. However, the Plan Administrator shall have the nonfiduciary, settlor discretion to deviate from the Plan’s written terms in any way that they choose that would not adversely impact the Plan’s top hat plan status if the administrative actions taken were provided for in the Plan’s written terms. Any such act or omission shall constitute an operational amendment to the Plan authorizing the act or omission, unless the Plan Administrator determines, in its nonfiduciary settlor discretion, that the act or omission was inappropriate. The Plan Administrator shall maintain a written record of operational amendments, which it shall periodically update to reflect previously unrecorded operational amendments. However, operational amendments shall not be incorporated into the formal Plan document unless the Plan Administrator determines that they have ongoing application. This section may not be invoked by anyone to require a deviation from Plan terms to be treated as an operational amendment unless the Plan Administrator has elected to treat it as such, as evidenced by its written record of operational amendments, as amended or updated from time to time.
          (c) The Plan Administrator shall have the discretion to make any findings of fact or law needed in the administration of the Plan, and shall have the discretion to interpret or construe ambiguous, unclear or implied (but omitted) terms in any fashion they deem to be appropriate in their sole judgment. All determinations and decisions made by the Plan Administrator in connection with the Plan shall be made in their sole discretion even when the Plan does not explicitly so state, except to the extent that the retention of discretion is prohibited by ERISA.
          (d) To the extent the Plan Administrator has been granted discretionary authority under the Plan, the Plan Administrator’s prior exercise of such authority shall not obligate it to exercise its authority in a like fashion thereafter.

7


 

          (e) If, due to errors in drafting, any Plan provision does not accurately reflect its intended meaning, as demonstrated by consistent interpretations or other evidence of intent, or as determined by the Plan Administrator in its sole and exclusive judgment, the provision shall be considered ambiguous and shall be interpreted by the Plan Administrator in a fashion consistent with its intent, as determined by the Plan Administrator in its sole discretion. The Plan Administrator shall amend the Plan retroactively to cure any such ambiguity.
          (f) This section may not be invoked by any person to require the Plan to be interpreted in a manner that is inconsistent with its interpretation by the Plan Administrator.
          (g) All actions taken and all determinations made in good faith by the Plan Administrator shall be final and binding on all persons claiming any interest in or under the Plan. If the validity of a Plan Administrator exercise of discretion, finding of fact or of law, interpretation, construction, or decision is challenged in court, by arbitration, or in any other forum, it shall not be given de novo review; rather, it shall be upheld unless clearly arbitrary or capricious.
     8.3 Income Taxes
     The Participant is solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may arise in connection with Plan benefits (including any taxes arising under Code Section 409A), and the Company shall have no obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold any Participant harmless from any or all of such taxes or penalties.
     8.4 Alienation
     The rights of a Participant under the Plan shall not be subject to any claim of any creditor nor to attachment or garnishment or other legal process by any creditor. A Participant shall not have the right to alienate, anticipate, commute, pledge, encumber, or assign any of the benefits or payments or proceeds that the individual may expect to receive, contingently or otherwise, under the Plan. The provisions of this section shall not preclude any assignment or alienation expressly permitted under applicable law or other provisions of the Plan.
     8.5 Limitation on Rights of Participants
     Except as otherwise required by law, the Plan is strictly a voluntary undertaking on the part of the Company and shall not constitute a contract between the Company and any Participant, or consideration for, or an inducement or condition of, the service of an individual. Except as otherwise required by law, nothing contained in the Plan shall give any Participant the right to be retained in the service of the Company or to interfere with or restrict the right of the Company, which is hereby expressly reserved, to discharge or retire any Participant at any time, with or without cause.
     8.6 Governing Law
     The Plan shall be interpreted, administered, and enforced in accordance with ERISA, and the rights of Participants, former Participants and all other persons shall be administered in accordance with ERISA. To the extent that state law is applicable, the substantive (non-choice

8


 

of laws) laws of the State of California shall apply. If any provision of the Plan is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid and unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue to be fully effective.
     8.7 Pronouns and Plurals
     Where the context so indicates, the masculine pronoun shall include the feminine pronoun, and the singular shall include the plural and vice versa.
     8.8 Titles
     Titles are provided herein fur convenience only and are not to serve as a basis for interpretation or construction of the Plan.

Exhibit 10.12
L-3 COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION
STANDARD SUBLEASE AGREEMENT
1. PARTIES
This Sublease, dated February 17, 2005, is made between L-3 Communications Corporation, successor in interest to EMP TrexCom, Inc. and Thermotrex Corporation (“Sublessor”) and AeroVironment, Inc. (“Sublessee”).
2. MASTER LEASE
Sublessor is the lessee under a written lease dated December 31, 1998, wherein Hillside III LLC (“Lessor”) leased to Sublessor the real property commonly known as 900 Enchanted Way, Simi Valley, located in the County of Ventura, State of California (“Master Premises”). Said lease has a Rider marked LA 864207.2 and an Assignment and Assumption Dated February 14, 2000. Said lease has been amended by an Amendment to Standard Industrial/Commercial Single Tenant Lease-Net dated September 21, 1999. Said Lease, Rider, Assignment and Amendment are herein collectively referred to as the “Master Lease” and are attached hereto as Exhibit A.
3. WARRANTY BY SUBLESSOR
Sublessor warrants and represents to Sublessee that the Master Lease has not been amended or modified except as expressly set forth herein, that Sublessor is not now, and as of the commencement of the Term hereof will not be, in default or breach of any of the provisions of the Master Lease beyond applicable notice and cure periods and that Sublessor has no knowledge of any claim by Lessor that Sublessor is in default or breach of any of the provisions of the Master Lease.
4. PREMISES
Sublessor hereby releases to Sublessee on the terms and conditions set forth in this Sublease the Master Premises (“Premises”): There is a discrepancy in the size of the Building between that referred to in the Master Lease and that referred to in the space plan of the Building. For all purposes of this Sublease, the Premises shall be conclusively deemed to be 85,356 square feet calculated pursuant to the Standard Method of Measuring Floor Area, ANSI Z65.1-1996 (“BOMA Standard”). Sublessee accepts the Premises in their present “AS-IS” condition and shall be responsible, at its cost and expense, for all alterations, improvements, additions and other work required or desired for its use and occupancy of the Premises, except for the work, if any specified in Exhibit B which is to be performed by Sublessor at its cost as therein provided. Sublessee will use its own due diligence to determine if the Property is in compliance with all laws, codes and regulations having jurisdiction including building codes, fire codes, life safety and ADA and will satisfy itself as to the conditions of the building and the air conditioning units, plumbing, heating and electrical panels and meters. To the best of Sublessor’s knowledge, there are no known violations of law. All improvements by Sublessee shall be pre-approved, constructed and maintained by Sublessee in accordance with the Master Lease. If required by Lessor, Sublessee, shall, remove any improvements installed by Sublessee before the end of Sublessee’s term hereunder, however terminated during the Sublease term. Sublessee desires to install HVAC units and has submitted plans with respect thereto. Sublessee warrants, and

1


 

Sublessor guarantees, that the HVAC units, if approved, will be watertight and that the integrity of the roof will not be impaired thereby. Until further notice by the Lessor, the HVAC units will not be removed before or upon the end of Sublessee’s term hereunder, however, terminated and shall remain on the premises. Any removal and restoration of improvements by Sublessee as may be required by Lessor, shall he completed prior to the end of the Sublease term and in accordance with the Master Lease. Sublessor Warrants that, should Sublessee’s installation, removal or maintenance of any improvements cause Lessor damage, Sublessor, in addition to Sublessee shall be jointly and severally responsible to Lessor for all costs and damages resulting therefrom, including attorneys’ fees.
5. TERM
5.1. The term of this Sublease shall commence on March 1, 2005 (“Commencement Date”), or when Lessor consents to this Sublease (if such consent is required under the Master Lease), whichever shall last occur, and end on September 30, 2009 (“Termination Date”), unless otherwise sooner terminated in accordance with the provisions of this Sublease. In the event the Term commences on a date other than the Commencement Date, Sublessor and Sublessee shall execute a memorandum setting forth the actual date of commencement of the term. Possession of the Premises (“Possession”) shall be delivered to Sublessee on the execution of the Sublease by the three parties to this Agreement.
5.2. If for any reason Sublessor does not deliver Possession to Sublessee on the commencement of the Term, Sublessor shall not be subject to any liability for such failure, the Termination Date shall not be extended by the delay, and the validity of this Sublease shall not be impaired, but rent shall abate until delivery of Possession. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Sublessor has not delivered Possession to Sublessee within thirty (30) days after the Commencement Date, then at any time thereafter and before delivery of Possession, Sublessee may give written notice to Sublessor of Sublessee’s intention to cancel the Sublease. Said notice shall set forth an effective date for such cancellation which shall be at least ten (10) days after delivery of said notice to Sublessor. If Sublessor delivers Possession to Sublessee on or before such effective date, this Sublease shall remain in full force and effect. If Sublessor fails to deliver Possession to Sublessee on or before such effective date, this Sublease shall be canceled, in which case all consideration previously paid by Sublessee to Sublessor on account of this Sublease shall be returned to Sublessee, this Sublease shall thereafter be of no further force or effect, and Sublessor shall have no further liability to Sublessee on account of such delay or cancellation.
5.3. If Sublessor permits Sublessee to take Possession prior to the commencement of the Term, such early Possession shall not advance the Termination Date and shall be subject to the provisions of this Sublease.

Such additional rent shall be payable as and when Operating Costs are payable by Sublessor to Lessor. If the Master Lease provides for the payment by Sublessor of Operating Costs on the basis of an estimate thereof, then as and when adjustments between estimated and actual Operating Costs are made under the Master Lease, the obligations of Sublessor and Sublessee hereunder shall be adjusted in a like manner. If any such adjustment shall occur after the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, then the obligations of Sublessor and Sublessee under this Subsection 6.2 shall survive such expiration or termination. Sublessor shall, upon request by Sublessee, furnish Sublessee with copies of all statements submitted by Lessor of actual or estimated Operating Costs during the Term.
7. SECURITY DEPOSIT
Sublessee shall deposit with Sublessor upon execution hereof the sum of One Hundred Ten Thousand Nine Hundred Sixty Three ($110,963.00) Dollars as First Month’s Rent and Security Deposit equal to the last month’s rent for Sublessee’s faithful performance of Sublessee’s obligations hereunder. If Sublessee fails to pay rent or other charges due hereunder, or otherwise defaults with respect to any provision of this Sublease, Sublessor may use, apply, or retain all or any portion of said deposit for the payment of any rent, or other charge in default, or for the payment of any other sum to which Sublessor may become obligated by reason of Sublessee’s default, or to compensate Sublessor for any loss or damage which Sublessor may suffer thereby. If Sublessor so uses or applies all or any portion of said deposit, Sublessee shall, within ten (10) days after written demand therefore, deposit cash with Sublessor in an amount sufficient to restore said deposit to the full amount hereinabove stated, and Sublessee’s failure to do so shall be a breach of this Sublease and Sublessor may at its option terminate this Sublease. Sublessor shall not be required to keep said deposit separate from its general accounts. If Sublessee performs all of Sublessee’s obligations hereunder, said deposit, or so much thereof as had not theretofore been applied by Sublessor, shall be returned without payment of interest for its use to Sublessee (or at Sublessor’s option to the last assignee, if any, of Sublessee’s interest hereunder),

within ten (10) days after the expiration of the term hereof, or after Sublessee has vacated the Premises, whichever is later.
8. TERMINATION OPTION

In the event sublessee fails to notify sublessor of it’s intent to terminate the sublease within one hundred eighty (180) days written notice (“Termination Notice”) from the termination option date then the termination option will become null and void.

9. USE OF PREMISES
The Premises shall be used and occupied only for General business use and manufacturing and related testing and for no other use or purpose.

10. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING
Sublessee shall not assign this Sublease or further sublet all or any part of the Premises without the prior written consent of Sublessor (and the consent of Lessor, if such is required under the terms of the Master Lease).
11. OTHER PROVISIONS OF SUBLEASE
All applicable terms and conditions of the Master Lease as defined in Section 2 of this Agreement are incorporated into and made a part of this Sublease as if Sublessor were the lessor thereunder, Sublessee the lessee thereunder, and the Premises the Master Premises, except for the following: 1.10, 1.11, 13.3, Option to Extend Standard Lease Addendum, Rider Paragraphs 1.2A, 1.3A, 1.4A, 1.5A 7.3A, Exhibit B: Guaranty of Lease,.

Sublessee shall not commit or suffer any act or omission that will violate any of the provisions of the Master Lease. Sublessor shall exercise due diligence in attempting to cause Lessor to perform its obligations under the Master Lease for the benefit of Sublessee. If the Master Lease terminates, this Sublease shall terminate and the parties shall be relieved of any further liability or obligation under this Sublease, provided however, that if the Master Lease terminates as a result of default or breach by Sublessor or Sublessee under this Sublease and/or the Master Lease, then the defaulting party shall be liable to the nondefaulting party for the damage suffered as a result of such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Master Lease gives Sublessor any right

4


 

to terminate the Master Lease in the event of the partial or total damage, destruction, or condemnation of the Master Premises or the building or project of which the Master Premises are a part, the exercise of such right by Sublessor shall not constitute a default or breach hereunder.

2. Premises.
     2.1 Letting. Lessor hereby leases to Lessee, and Lessee hereby leases from Lessor, the Premises, for the term, at the rental, and upon all of the terms, covenants and conditions set forth in this Lease. Unless otherwise provided herein, any statement of size set forth in this Lease, or that may have been used in calculating Rent, is an approximation which the Parties agree is reasonable and any payments based thereon are not subject to revision whether or not the actual size is more or less. Note: Lessee is advised to verify the actual size prior to executing this Lease.
     2.2 Condition. Lessor shall deliver the Premises to Lessee broom clean and free of debris on the Commencement Date or the Early Possession Date, whichever first occurs (“Start Date”), and, so long as the required service contracts described in Paragraph 7.1(b) below are obtained by Lessee and in effect within thirty days following the Start Date, warrants that the existing electrical, plumbing, fire sprinkler, lighting, heating, ventilating and air conditioning systems (“HVAC”), loading doors, sump pumps, if any, and all other such elements in the Premises, other than those constructed by Lessee, shall be in good operating condition on said date and that the surface and structural elements of the roof, bearing walls and foundation of any buildings on the Premises (the “Building”) shall be free of material defects. If a non-compliance with said warranty exists as of the Start Date, or if one of such systems or elements should malfunction or fail within the appropriate warranty period, Lessor shall, as Lessor’s sole obligation with respect to such matter, except as otherwise provided in this Lease, promptly after receipt of written notice from Lessee setting forth with specificity the nature and extent of such non-compliance, malfunction or failure, rectify same at Lessor’s expense. The warranty periods shall be as follows: (i) 6 months as to the HVAC systems, and (ii) 30 days as to the remaining systems and other elements of the Building. If Lessee does not give Lessor the required notice within the appropriate warranty period, correction of any such non-compliance, malfunction or failure shall be the obligation of Lessee at Lessee’s sole cost and expense, except for the roof, foundations, and bearing walls which are handled as provided in paragraph 7.
     2.3 Compliance. Lessor warrants that the improvements on the Premises comply with the building codes, applicable laws, covenants or restrictions of record, regulations, and ordinances (“Applicable Requirements”) that were in effect at the time that each improvement, or portion thereof, was constructed. Said warranty does not apply to the use to which Lessee will put the Premises, modifications which may be required by the Americans with Disabilities Act or any similar laws as a result of Lessee’s use (see Paragraph 50), or to any Alterations or Utility Installations (as defined in Paragraph 7.3(a)) made or to be made by Lessee. NOTE: Lessee is responsible for determining whether or not the Applicable Requirements, and especially the zoning, are appropriate for Lessee’s intended use, and acknowledges that past uses of the Premises may no longer be allowed. If the Premises do not comply with said warranty, Lessor shall, except as otherwise provided, promptly after receipt of written notice from Lessee setting forth with specificity the nature and extent of such non-compliance, rectify the same at Lessor’s expense. If Lessee does not give Lessor written notice of a non-compliance with this warranty within 6 months following the Start Date, correction of that non-compliance shall be the obligation of Lessee at Lessee’s sole cost and expense. If the Applicable Requirements are hereafter changed so as to require during the term of this Lease the construction of an addition to or an alteration of the Premises and/or Building, the remediation of any Hazardous Substance, or the reinforcement or other physical modification of the Unit, Premises and/or Building (“Capital Expenditure”), Lessor and Lessee shall allocate the cost of such work as follows:
          (a) Subject to Paragraph 2.3(c) below, if such Capital Expenditures are required as a result of the specific and unique use of the Premises by Lessee as compared with uses by tenants in general, Lessee shall be fully responsible for the cost thereof, provided, however that if such Capital Expenditure is required during the last 2 years of this Lease and the cost thereof exceeds 6 months’ Base Rent, Lessee may instead terminate this Lease unless Lessor notifies Lessee, in writing, within 10 days after receipt of Lessee’s termination notice that Lessor has elected to pay the difference between the actual cost thereof and an amount equal to 6 months’ Base Rent. If Lessee elects termination, Lessee

shall immediately cease the use of the Premises which requires such Capital Expenditure and deliver to Lessor written notice specifying a termination date at least 90 days thereafter. Such termination date shall, however, in no event be earlier than the last day that Lessee could legally utilize the Premises without commencing such Capital Expenditure.
          (b) If such Capital Expenditure is not the result of the specific and unique use of the Premises by Lessee (such as, governmentally mandated seismic modifications), then Lessor and Lessee shall allocate the obligation to pay for such costs pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph 7.1(d); provided, however, that if such Capital Expenditure is required during the last 2 years of this Lease or if Lessor reasonably determines that it is not economically feasible to pay its share thereof, Lessor shall have the option to terminate this Lease upon 90 days prior written notice to Lessee unless Lessee notifies Lessor, in writing, within 10 days after receipt of Lessor’s termination notice that Lessee will pay for such Capital Expenditure. If Lessor does not elect to terminate, and fails to tender its share of any such Capital Expenditure, Lessee may advance such funds and deduct same, with Interest, from Rent until Lessor’s share of such costs have been fully paid. If Lessee is unable to finance Lessor’s share, or if the balance of the Rent due and payable for the remainder of this Lease is not sufficient to fully reimburse Lessee on an offset basis, Lessee shall have the right to terminate this Lease upon 30 days written notice to Lessor.
          (c) Notwithstanding the above, the provisions concerning Capital Expenditures are intended to apply only to non-voluntary, unexpected, and new Applicable Requirements. If the Capital Expenditures are instead triggered by Lessee as a result of an actual or proposed change in use, change in intensity of use, or modification to the Premises then, and in that event, Lessee shall either: (i) immediately cease such changed use or intensity of use and/or take such other steps as may be necessary to eliminate the requirement for such Capital Expenditure, or (ii) complete such Capital Expenditure at its own expense. Lessee shall not, however, have any right to terminate this Lease.
     2.4 Acknowledgements. Lessee acknowledges that: (a) it has been advised by Lessor and/or Brokers to satisfy itself with respect to the condition of the Premises (including but not limited to the electrical, HVAC and fire sprinkler systems, security, environmental aspects, and compliance with Applicable Requirements and the Americans with Disabilities Act), and their suitability for Lessee’s intended use, (b) Lessee has made such investigation as it deems necessary with reference to such matters and assumes all responsibility therefor as the same relate to its occupancy of the Premises, and (c) neither Lessor, Lessor’s agents, nor Brokers have made any oral or written representations or warranties with respect to said matters other than as set forth in this Lease. In addition, Lessor acknowledges that: (i) Brokers have made no representations, promises or warranties concerning Lessee’s ability to honor the Lease or suitability to occupy the Premises, and (ii) it is Lessor’s sole responsibility to investigate the financial capability and/or suitability of all proposed tenants.
     2.5 Lessee as Prior Owner/Occupant. The warranties made by Lessor in Paragraph 2 shall be of no force or effect if immediately prior to the Start Date Lessee was the owner or occupant of the Premises. In such event, Lessee shall be responsible for any necessary corrective work.
3. Term.
     3.1 Term. The Commencement Date, Expiration Date and Original Term of this Lease are as specified in Paragraph 1.3.
     3.2 Early Possession. If Lessee totally or partially occupies the Premises prior to the Commencement Date, the obligation to pay Base Rent shall be abated for the period of such early possession. All other terms of this Lease (including but not limited to the obligations to pay Real Property Taxes and insurance premiums and to maintain the Premises) shall, however, be in effect during such period. Any such early possession shall not affect the Expiration Date.
     3.3 Delay In Possession. Lessor agrees to use its best commercially reasonable efforts to deliver possession of the Premises to Lessee by the Commencement Date. If, despite said efforts, Lessor is unable to deliver possession by such date, Lessor shall not be subject to any liability therefor, nor shall such failure affect the validity of this Lease. Lessee shall not, however, be obligated to pay Rent or perform its other obligations until Lessor delivers possession of the Premises and any period of rent abatement that Lessee would otherwise have enjoyed shall run from the date of delivery of possession and continue for a period equal to what Lessee would otherwise have enjoyed under the terms hereof, but minus any days of delay caused by the acts or omissions of Lessee. If possession is not delivered within 60 days after the Commencement Date, Lessee may, at its option, by notice in writing within 10 days after the end of such 60 day period, cancel this Lease, in which event the Parties shall be discharged from all obligations hereunder. If such written notice is not received by Lessor within said 10 day period, Lessee’s right to cancel shall terminate. If possession of the Premises is not delivered within 120 days after the Commencement Date, this Lease shall terminate unless other agreements are reached between Lessor and Lessee, in writing.
     3.4 Lessee Compliance. Lessor shall not be required to deliver possession of the Premises to Lessee until Lessee complies with its obligation to provide evidence of insurance (Paragraph 8.5). Pending delivery of such evidence, Lessee shall be required to perform all of its obligations under this Lease from and after the Start Date, including the payment of Rent, notwithstanding Lessor’s election to

PAGE 3 OF 24


 

withhold possession pending receipt of such evidence of insurance. Further, if Lessee is required to perform any other conditions prior to or concurrent with the Start Date, the Start Date shall occur but Lessor may elect to withhold possession until such conditions are satisfied.
4. Rent.
     4.1 Rent Defined. All monetary obligations of Lessee to Lessor under the terms of this Lease (except for the Security Deposit) are deemed to be rent (“Rent”).
     4.2 Payment. Lessee shall cause payment of Rent to be received by Lessor in lawful money of the United States on or before the day on which it is due, without offset or deduction (except as specifically permitted in this Lease). Rent for any period during the term hereof which is for less than one full calendar month shall be prorated based upon the actual number of days of said month. Payment of Rent shall be made to Lessor at its address stated herein or to such other persons or place as Lessor may from time to time designate in writing. Acceptance of a payment which is less than the amount then due shall not be a waiver of Lessor’s rights to the balance of such Rent, regardless of Lessor’s endorsement of any check so stating. In the event that any check, draft, or other instrument of payment given by Lessee to Lessor is dishonored for any reason, Lessee agrees to pay to Lessor the sum of $25 in addition to any Late Charge and Lessor, at its option, may require all future payments to be made by Lessee to be by cashier’s check. Payments will be applied first to accrued late charges and attorney’s fees, second to accrued interest, then to Base Rent and Operating Expense Increase, and any remaining amount to any other outstanding charges or costs.
     4.3
5. Security Deposit. Lessee shall deposit with Lessor upon execution hereof the Security Deposit as security for Lessee’s faithful performance of its obligations under this Lease. If Lessee fails to pay Rent, or otherwise Defaults under this Lease, Lessor may use, apply or retain all or any portion of said Security Deposit for the payment of any amount due Lessor or to reimburse or compensate Lessor for any liability, expense, loss or damage which Lessor may suffer or incur by reason thereof. If Lessor uses or applies all or any portion of the Security Deposit, Lessee shall within 10 days after written request therefor deposit monies with Lessor sufficient to restore said Security Deposit to the full amount required by this Lease. If the Base Rent increases during the term of this Lease, Lessee shall, upon written request from Lessor, deposit additional moneys with Lessor so that the total amount of the Security Deposit shall at all times bear the same proportion to the increased Base Rent as the initial Security Deposit bore to the initial Base Rent. Should the Agreed Use be amended to accommodate a material change in the business of Lessee or to accommodate a sublessee or assignee, Lessor shall have the right to increase the Security Deposit to the extent necessary, in Lessor’s reasonable judgment, to account for any increased wear and tear that the Premises may suffer as a result thereof. If a change in control of Lessee occurs during this Lease and following such change the financial condition of Lessee is, in Lessor’s reasonable judgment, significantly reduced, Lessee shall deposit such additional monies with Lessor as shall be sufficient to cause the Security Deposit to be at a commercially reasonable level based on such change in financial condition. Lessor shall not be required to keep the Security Deposit separate from its general accounts. Within 14 days after the expiration or termination of this Lease, if Lessor elects to apply the Security Deposit only to unpaid Rent, and otherwise within 30 days after the Premises have been vacated pursuant to Paragraph 7.4(c) below, Lessor shall return that portion of the Security Deposit not used or applied by Lessor. No part of the Security Deposit shall be considered to be held in trust, to bear interest or to be prepayment for any monies to be paid by Lessee under this Lease.
6. Use.
     6.1 Use. Lessee shall use and occupy the Premises only for the Agreed Use, or any other legal use which is reasonably comparable thereto, and for no other purpose. Lessee shall not use or permit the use of the Premises in a manner that is unlawful, creates damage, waste or a nuisance, or that disturbs occupants of or causes damage to neighboring premises or properties. Lessor shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to any written request for a modification of the Agreed Use, so long as the same will not impair the structural integrity of the improvements on the Premises or the mechanical or electrical systems therein, and/or is not significantly more burdensome to the Premises. If Lessor elects to withhold consent, Lessor shall within 7 days after such request give written notification of same, which notice shall include an explanation of Lessor’s objections to the change in the Agreed Use.
     6.2 Hazardous Substances.
          (a) Reportable Uses Require Consent. The term “Hazardous Substance” as used in this Lease shall mean any product, substance, or waste whose presence, use, manufacture, disposal, transportation, or release, either by itself or in combination with other materials expected to be on the Premises, is either: (i) potentially injurious to the public health, safety or welfare, the environment or the Premises, (ii) regulated or monitored by any governmental authority, or (iii) a basis for potential liability of Lessor to any governmental agency or third party under any applicable statute or common law theory. Hazardous Substances shall include, but not be limited to, hydrocarbons, petroleum, gasoline, and/or

crude oil or any products, by-products or fractions thereof. Lessee shall not engage in any activity in or on the Premises which constitutes a Reportable Use of Hazardous Substances without the express prior written consent of Lessor and timely compliance (at Lessee’s expense) with all Applicable Requirements. “Reportable Use” shall mean (i) the installation or use of any above or below ground storage tank, (ii) the generation, possession, storage, use, transportation, or disposal of a Hazardous Substance that requires a permit from, or with respect to which a report, notice, registration or business plan is required to be filed with, any governmental authority, and/or (iii) the presence at the Premises of a Hazardous Substance with respect to which any Applicable Requirements requires that a notice be given to persons entering or occupying the Premises or neighboring properties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee may use any ordinary and customary materials reasonably required to be used in the normal course of the Agreed Use, ordinary office supplies (copier toner, liquid paper, glue, etc.) and common household cleaning materials, so long as such use is in compliance with all Applicable Requirements, is not a Reportable Use, and does not expose the Premises or neighboring property to any meaningful risk of contamination or damage or expose Lessor to any liability therefor. In addition, Lessor may condition its consent to any Reportable Use upon receiving such additional assurances as Lessor reasonably deems necessary to protect itself, the public, the Premises and/or the environment against damage, contamination, injury and/or liability, including, but not limited to, the installation (and removal on or before Lease expiration or termination) of protective modifications (such as concrete encasements) and/or increasing the Security Deposit.
          (b) Duty to Inform Lessor. If Lessee knows, or has reasonable cause to believe, that a Hazardous Substance has come to be located in, on, under or about the Premises, other than as previously consented to by Lessor, Lessee shall immediately give written notice of such fact to Lessor, and provide Lessor with a copy of any report, notice, claim or other documentation which it has concerning the presence of such Hazardous Substance.
          (c) Lessee Remediation. Lessee shall not cause or permit any Hazardous Substance to be spilled or released in, on, under, or about the Premises (including through the plumbing or sanitary sewer system) and shall promptly, at Lessee’s expense, comply with all Applicable Requirements and take all investigatory and/or remedial action reasonably recommended, whether or not formally ordered or required, for the cleanup of any contamination of, and for the maintenance, security and/or monitoring of the Premises or neighboring properties, that was caused or materially contributed to by Lessee, or pertaining to or involving any Hazardous Substance brought onto the Premises during the term of this Lease, by or for Lessee, or any third party.
          (d) Lessee Indemnification. Lessee shall indemnify, defend and hold Lessor, its agents, employees, lenders and ground lessor, if any, harmless from and against any and all loss of rents and/or damages, liabilities, judgments, claims, expenses, penalties, and attorneys’ and consultants’ fees arising out of or involving any Hazardous Substance brought onto the Premises by or for Lessee, or any third party (provided, however, that Lessee shall have no liability under this Lease with respect to underground migration of any Hazardous Substance under the Premises from adjacent properties not caused or contributed to by Lessee). Lessee’s obligations shall include, but not be limited to, the effects of any contamination or injury to person, property or the environment created or suffered by Lessee, and the cost of investigation, removal, remediation, restoration and/or abatement, and shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease. No termination, cancellation or release agreement entered into by Lessor and Lessee shall release Lessee from its obligations under this Lease with respect to Hazardous Substances, unless specifically so agreed by Lessor in writing at the time of such agreement.
          (e) Lessor Indemnification. Lessor and its successors and assigns shall indemnify, defend, reimburse and hold Lessee, its employees and lenders, harmless from and against any and all environmental damages, including the cost of remediation, which result from Hazardous Substances which existed on the Premises prior to Lessee’s occupancy or which are caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lessor, its agents or employees. Lessor’s obligations, as and when required by the Applicable Requirements, shall include, but not be limited to, the cost of investigation, removal, remediation, restoration and/or abatement, and shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease.
          (f) Investigations and Remediations. Lessor shall retain the responsibility and pay for any investigations or remediation measures required by governmental entities having jurisdiction with respect to the existence of Hazardous Substances on the Premises prior to Lessee’s occupancy, unless such remediation measure is required as a result of Lessee’s use (including “Alterations”, as defined in paragraph 7.3(a) below) of the Premises, in which event Lessee shall be responsible for such payment. Lessee shall cooperate fully in any such activities at the request of Lessor, including allowing Lessor and Lessor’s agents to have reasonable access to the Premises at reasonable times in order to carry out Lessor’s investigative and remedial responsibilities.
          (g) Lessor Termination Option. If a Hazardous Substance Condition (see Paragraph 9.1(e)) occurs during the term of this Lease, unless Lessee is legally responsible therefor (in which case Lessee shall make the investigation and remediation thereof required by the Applicable Requirements and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, but subject to Lessor’s rights under Paragraph 6.2(d) and Paragraph 13), Lessor may, at Lessor’s option, either (i) investigate and remediate such Hazardous Substance Condition, if required, as soon as reasonably possible at Lessor’s expense, in

which event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, or (ii) if the estimated cost to remediate such condition exceeds 12 times the then monthly Base Rent or $100,000, whichever is greater, give written notice to Lessee, within 30 days after receipt by Lessor of knowledge of the occurrence of such Hazardous Substance Condition, of Lessor’s desire to terminate this Lease as of the date 60 days following the date of such notice. In the event Lessor elects to give a termination notice, Lessee may, within 10 days thereafter, give written notice to Lessor of Lessee’s commitment to pay the amount by which the cost of the remediation of such Hazardous Substance Condition exceeds an amount equal to 12 times the then monthly Base Rent or $100,000, whichever is greater. Lessee shall provide Lessor with said funds or satisfactory assurance thereof within 30 days following such commitment. In such event, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, and Lessor shall proceed to make such remediation as soon as reasonably possible after the required funds are available. If Lessee does not give such notice and provide the required funds or assurance thereof within the time provided, this Lease shall terminate as of the date specified in Lessor’s notice of termination.
     6.3 Lessee’s Compliance with Applicable Requirements. Except as otherwise provided in this Lease, Lessee shall, at Lessee’s sole expense, fully, diligently and in a timely manner, materially comply with all Applicable Requirements, the requirements of any applicable fire insurance underwriter or rating bureau, and the recommendations of Lessor’s engineers and/or consultants which relate in any manner to the such Requirements, without regard to whether such Requirements are now in effect or become effective after the Start Date. Lessee shall, within 10 days after receipt of Lessor’s written request, provide Lessor with copies of all permits and other documents, and other information evidencing Lessee’s compliance with any Applicable Requirements specified by Lessor, and shall immediately upon receipt, notify Lessor in writing (with copies of any documents involved) of any threatened or actual claim, notice, citation, warning, complaint or report pertaining to or involving the failure of Lessee or the Premises to comply with any Applicable Requirements.
     6.4 Inspection; Compliance. Lessor and Lessor’s “Lender” (as defined in Paragraph 30) and consultants shall have the right to enter into Premises at any time, in the case of an emergency, and otherwise at reasonable times after reasonable notice, for the purpose of inspecting the condition of the Premises and for verifying compliance by Lessee with this Lease. The cost of any such inspections shall be paid by Lessor, unless a violation of Applicable Requirements, or a Hazardous Substance Condition (see paragraph 9.1) is found to exist or be imminent, or the inspection is requested or ordered by a governmental authority. In such case, Lessee shall upon request reimburse Lessor for the cost of such inspection, so long as such inspection is reasonably related to the violation or contamination. In addition, Lessee shall provide copies of all relevant material safety data sheets (MSDS) to Lessor within 10 days of the receipt of a written request therefor.
7. Maintenance; Repairs; Utility Installations; Trade Fixtures and Alterations.
     7.1 Lessee’s Obligations.
          (a) In General. Subject to the provisions of Paragraph 2.2 (Condition), 2.3 (Compliance), 6.3 (Lessee’s Compliance with Applicable Requirements), 7.2 (Lessor’s Obligations), 9 (Damage or Destruction), and 14 (Condemnation), Lessee shall, at Lessee’s sole expense, keep the Premises, Utility Installations (intended for Lessee’s exclusive use, no matter where located), and Alterations in good order, condition and repair (whether or not the portion of the Premises requiring repairs, or the means of repairing the same, are reasonably or readily accessible to Lessee, and whether or not the need for such repairs occurs as a result of Lessee’s use, any prior use, the elements or the age of such portion of the Premises), including, but not limited to, all equipment or facilities, such as plumbing, HVAC equipment, electrical, lighting facilities, boilers, pressure vessels, fire protection system, fixtures, walls (interior and exterior), ceilings, floors, windows, doors, plate glass, skylights, landscaping, driveways, parking lots, fences, retaining walls, signs, sidewalks and parkways located in, on, or adjacent to the Premises. Lessee is also responsible for keeping the roof and roof drainage clean and free of debris. Lessor shall keep the surface and structural elements of the roof, foundations, and bearing walls in good repair (see paragraph 7.2). Lessee, in keeping the Premises in good order, condition and repair, shall exercise and perform good maintenance practices, specifically including the procurement and maintenance of the service contracts required by Paragraph 7.1(b) below. Lessee’s obligations shall include restorations, replacements or renewals when necessary to keep the Premises and all improvements thereon or a part thereof in good order, condition and state of repair. Lessee shall, during the term of this Lease, keep the exterior appearance of the Building in a first-class condition (including, e.g. graffiti removal) consistent with the exterior appearance of other similar facilities of comparable age and size in the vicinity, including, when necessary, the exterior repainting of the Building.
          (b) Service Contracts. Lessee shall, at Lessee’s sole expense, procure and maintain contracts, with copies to Lessor, in customary form and substance for, and with contractors specializing and experienced in the maintenance of the following equipment and improvements, if any, if and when installed on the Premises: (i) HVAC equipment, (ii) boiler, and pressure vessels, (iii) fire extinguishing systems, including fire alarm and/or smoke detection, (iv) landscaping and irrigation systems, (v) clarifiers, (vi) basic utility feed to the perimeter of the Building, and (viii) any other equipment, if reasonably required by Lessor. However, Lessor reserves the right, upon notice to Lessee, to procure and maintain any or all of such service contracts, and if Lessor so elects, Lessee shall reimburse Lessor, upon demand, for the cost thereof.

          (c) Failure to Perform. If Lessee fails to perform Lessee’s obligations under this Paragraph 7.1, Lessor may enter upon the Premises after 10 days’ prior written notice to Lessee (except in the case of an emergency, in which case no notice shall be required), perform such obligations on Lessee’s behalf, and put the Premises in good order, condition and repair, and Lessee shall promptly pay to Lessor a sum equal to 115% of the cost thereof.
          (d) Replacement. Subject to Lessee’s indemnification of Lessor as set forth in Paragraph 8.7 below, and without relieving Lessee of liability resulting from Lessee’s failure to exercise and perform good maintenance practices, if an item described in Paragraph 7.1(b) cannot be repaired other than at a cost which is in excess of 50% of the cost of replacing such item, then such item shall be replaced by Lessor, and the cost thereof shall be prorated between the Parties and Lessee shall only be obligated to pay, each month during the remainder of the term of this Lease, on the date on which Base Rent is due, an amount equal to the product of multiplying the cost of such replacement by a fraction, the numerator of which is one, and the denominator of which is 144 (ie. 1/144th of the cost per month). Lessee shall pay interest on the unamortized balance at a rate that is commercially reasonable in the judgment of Lessor’s accountants. Lessee may, however, prepay its obligation at any time.
     7.2 Lessor’s Obligations. Subject to the provisions of Paragraphs 2.2 (Condition), 2.3 (Compliance), 9 (Damage or Destruction) and 14 (Condemnation), it is intended by the Parties hereto that Lessor have no obligation, in any manner whatsoever, to repair and maintain the Premises, or the equipment therein, all of which obligations are intended to be that of the Lessee, except for the surface and structural elements of the roof, foundations and bearing walls, the repair of which shall be the responsibility of Lessor upon receipt of written notice that such a repair is necessary. It is the intention of the Parties that the terms of this Lease govern the respective obligations of the Parties as to maintenance and repair of the Premises, and they expressly waive the benefit of any statute now or hereafter in effect to the extent it is inconsistent with the terms of this Lease.
     7.3 Utility Installations; Trade Fixtures; Alterations.
          (a) Definitions. The term “Utility Installations” refers to all floor and window coverings, air and/or vacuum lines, power panels, electrical distribution, security and fire protection systems, communication cabling, lighting fixtures, HVAC equipment, plumbing, and fencing in or on the Premises. The term “Trade Fixtures” shall mean Lessee’s machinery and equipment that can be removed without doing material damage to the Premises. The term “Alterations” shall mean any modification of the improvements, other than Utility Installations or Trade Fixtures, whether by addition or deletion. “Lessee Owned Alterations and/or Utility Installations” are defined as Alterations and/or Utility Installations made by Lessee that are not yet owned by Lessor pursuant to Paragraph 7.4(a).
          (b) Consent. Lessee shall not make any Alterations or Utility Installations to the Premises without Lessor’s prior written consent. Lessee may, however, make non-structural Utility Installations to the interior of the Premises (excluding the roof) without such consent but upon notice to Lessor, as long as they are not visible from the outside, do not involve puncturing, relocating or removing the roof or any existing walls, will not affect the electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and/or life safety systems, and the cumulative cost thereof during this Lease as extended does not exceed a sum equal to 3 month’s Base Rent in the aggregate or a sum equal to one month’s Base Rent in any one year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee shall not make or permit any roof penetrations and/or install anything on the roof without the prior written approval of Lessor. Lessor may, as a precondition to granting such approval, require Lessee to utilize a contractor chosen and/or approved by Lessor. Any Alterations or Utility Installations that Lessee shall desire to make and which require the consent of the Lessor shall be presented to Lessor in written form with detailed plans. Consent shall be deemed conditioned upon Lessee’s: (i) acquiring all applicable governmental permits, (ii) furnishing Lessor with copies of both the permits and the plans and specifications prior to commencement of the work, and (iii) compliance with all conditions of said permits and other Applicable Requirements in a prompt and expeditious manner. Any Alterations or Utility Installations shall be performed in a workmanlike manner with good and sufficient materials. Lessee shall promptly upon completion furnish Lessor with as-built plans and specifications. For work which costs an amount in excess of one month’s Base Rent, Lessor may condition its consent upon Lessee providing a lien and completion bond in an amount equal to 150% of the estimated cost of such Alteration or Utility Installation and/or upon Lessee’s posting an additional Security Deposit with Lessor.
          (c) Liens; Bonds. Lessee shall pay, when due, all claims for labor or materials furnished or alleged to have been furnished to or for Lessee at or for use on the Premises, which claims are or may be secured by any mechanic’s or materialmen’s lien against the Premises or any interest therein. Lessee shall give Lessor not less than 10 days notice prior to the commencement of any work in, on or about the Premises, and Lessor shall have the right to post notices of non-responsibility. If Lessee shall contest the validity of any such lien, claim or demand, then Lessee shall, at its sole expense defend and protect itself, Lessor and the Premises against the same and shall pay and satisfy any such adverse judgment that may be rendered thereon before the enforcement thereof. If Lessor shall require, Lessee shall furnish a surety bond in an amount equal to 150% of the amount of such contested lien, claim or demand, indemnifying Lessor against liability for the same. If Lessor elects to participate in any such action, Lessee shall pay Lessor’s attorneys’ fees and costs.

     7.4 Ownership; Removal; Surrender; and Restoration.
          (a) Ownership. Subject to Lessor’s right to require removal or elect ownership as hereinafter provided, all Alterations and Utility Installations made by Lessee shall be the property of Lessee, but considered a part of the Premises. Lessor may, at any time, elect in writing to be the owner of all or any specified part of the Lessee Owned Alterations and Utility Installations. Unless otherwise instructed per paragraph 7.4(b) hereof, all Lessee Owned Alterations and Utility Installations shall, at the expiration or termination of this Lease, become the property of Lessor and be surrendered by Lessee with the Premises.
          (b) Removal. By delivery to Lessee of written notice from Lessor not earlier than 90 and not later than 30 days prior to the end of the term of this Lease, Lessor may require that any or all Lessee Owned Alterations or Utility Installations be removed by the expiration or termination of this Lease. Lessor may require the removal at any time of all or any part of any Lessee Owned Alterations or Utility Installations made without the required consent.
          (c) Surrender; Restoration. Lessee shall surrender the Premises by the Expiration Date or any earlier termination date, with all of the improvements, parts and surfaces thereof broom clean and free of debris, and in good operating order, condition and state of repair, ordinary wear and tear excepted. “Ordinary wear and tear” shall not include any damage or deterioration that would have been prevented by good maintenance practice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this Lease is for 12 months or less, then Lessee shall surrender the Premises in the same condition as delivered to Lessee on the Start Date with NO allowance for ordinary wear and tear. Lessee shall repair any damage occasioned by the installation, maintenance or removal of Trade Fixtures, Lessee owned Alterations and/or Utility Installations, furnishings, and equipment as well as the removal of any storage tank installed by or for Lessee. Lessee shall completely remove from the Premises any and all Hazardous Substances brought onto the Premises by or for Lessee, or any third party (except Hazardous Substances which were deposited via underground migration from areas outside of the Premises, or if applicable, the Project) even if such removal would require Lessee to perform or pay for work that exceeds statutory requirements. Trade Fixtures shall remain the property of Lessee and shall be removed by Lessee. Any personal property of Lessee not removed on or before the Expiration Date or any earlier termination date shall be deemed to have been abandoned by Lessee and may be disposed of or retained by Lessor as Lessor may desire. The failure by Lessee to timely vacate the Premises pursuant to this Paragraph 7.4(c) without the express written consent of Lessor shall constitute a holdover under the provisions of Paragraph 26 below.
8. Insurance; Indemnity.
     8.1 Payment of Premium Increases.
          (a) Lessee shall pay to Lessor any insurance cost increase (“Insurance Cost Increase”) occurring during the term of this Lease. Insurance Cost Increase is defined as any increase in the actual cost of the insurance required under Paragraph 8.2(b), 8.3(a) and 8.3(b) (“Required Insurance”), over and above the Base Premium as hereinafter defined calculated on an annual basis. Insurance Cost Increase shall include but not be limited to increases resulting from the nature of Lessee’s occupancy, any act or omission of Lessee, requirements of the holder of mortgage or deed of trust covering the Premises, increased valuation of the Premises and/or a premium rate increase. The parties are encouraged to fill in the Base Premium in paragraph 1.8 with a reasonable premium for the Required Insurance based on the Agreed Use of the Premises. If the parties fail to insert a dollar amount in Paragraph 1.8, then the Base Premium shall be the lowest annual premium reasonably obtainable for the Required Insurance as of the commencement of the Original Term for the Agreed Use of the Premises. In no event, however, shall Lessee be responsible for any portion of the increase in the premium cost attributable to liability insurance carried by Lessor under Paragraph 8.2(b) in excess of $2,000,000 per occurrence.
          (b) Lessee shall pay any such Insurance Cost Increase to Lessor within 30 days after receipt by Lessee of a copy of the premium statement or other reasonable evidence of the amount due. If the insurance policies maintained hereunder cover other property besides the Premises, Lessor shall also deliver to Lessee a statement of the amount of such Insurance Cost Increase attributable only to the Premises showing in reasonable detail the manner in which such amount was computed. Premiums for policy periods commencing prior to, or extending beyond the term of this Lease, shall be prorated to correspond to the term of this Lease.
     8.2 Liability Insurance.
          (a) Carried by Lessee. Lessee shall obtain and keep in force a Commercial General Liability policy of insurance protecting Lessee and Lessor as an additional insured against claims for bodily injury, personal injury and property damage based upon or arising out of the ownership, use, occupancy or maintenance of the Premises and all areas appurtenant thereto. Such insurance shall be on an occurrence basis providing single limit coverage in an amount not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence with an annual aggregate of not less than $2,000,000, an “Additional Insured-Managers or Lessors of Premises Endorsement” and contain the “Amendment of the Pollution Exclusion

Endorsement” for damage caused by heat, smoke or fumes from a hostile fire. The policy shall not contain any intra-insured exclusions as between insured persons or organizations, but shall include coverage for liability assumed under this Lease as an “insured contract” for the performance of Lessee’s indemnity obligations under this Lease. The limits of said insurance shall not, however, limit the liability of Lessee nor relieve Lessee of any obligation hereunder. All insurance carried by Lessee as respects actions or omissions of Lessee only shall be primary to and not contributory with any similar insurance carried by Lessor, whose insurance shall be considered excess insurance only.
          (b) Carried by Lessor. Lessor shall maintain liability insurance as described in Paragraph 8.2(a), in addition to, and not in lieu of, the insurance required to be maintained by Lessee. Lessee shall not be named as an additional insured therein.
     8.3 Property Insurance — Building, Improvements and Rental Value.
          (a) Building and Improvements. The Insuring Party shall obtain and keep in force a policy or policies in the name of Lessor, with loss payable to Lessor, any ground-lessor, and to any Lender insuring loss or damage to the Premises. The amount of such insurance shall be equal to the full replacement cost of the Premises, as the same shall exist from time to time, or the amount required by any Lender, but in no event more than the commercially reasonable and available insurable value thereof. If the coverage is available and commercially appropriate, such policy or policies shall insure against all risks of direct physical loss or damage (except the perils of flood and/or earthquake unless required by a Lender or included in the Base Premium), including coverage for debris removal and the enforcement of any Applicable Requirements requiring the upgrading, demolition, reconstruction or replacement of any portion of the Premises as the result of a covered loss. Said policy or policies shall also contain an agreed valuation provision in lieu of any coinsurance clause, waiver of subrogation, and inflation guard protection causing an increase in the annual property insurance coverage amount by a factor of not less than the adjusted U.S. Department of Labor Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers for the city nearest to where the Premises are located. If such insurance coverage has a deductible clause, the deductible amount shall not exceed $1,000 per occurrence, and Lessee shall be liable for such deductible amount in the event of an Insured Loss.
          (b) Rental Value. The Insuring Party shall obtain and keep in force a policy or policies in the name of Lessor with loss payable to Lessor and any Lender, insuring the loss of the full Rent for one year with an extended period of indemnity for an additional 180 days (“Rental Value insurance”). Said insurance shall contain an agreed valuation provision in lieu of any coinsurance clause, and the amount of coverage shall be adjusted annually to reflect the projected Rent otherwise payable by Lessee, for the next 12 month period. Lessee shall be liable for any deductible amount in the event of such loss.
          (c) Adjacent Premises. If the Premises are part of a larger building, or of a group of buildings owned by Lessor which are adjacent to the Premises, the Lessee shall pay for any increase in the premiums for the property insurance of such building or buildings if said increase is caused by Lessee’s acts, omissions, use or occupancy of the Premises.
     8.4 Lessee’s Property; Business Interruption Insurance.
          (a) Property Damage. Lessee shall obtain and maintain insurance coverage on all of Lessee’s personal property, Trade Fixtures, and Lessee Owned Alterations and Utility Installations.
          (b)
          (c) No Representation of Adequate Coverage. Lessor makes no representation that the limits or forms of coverage of insurance specified herein are adequate to cover Lessee’s property, business operations or obligations under this Lease.
     8.5 Insurance Policies. Insurance required herein shall be by companies duly licensed or admitted to transact business in the state where the Premises are located, and maintaining during the policy term a “General Policyholders Rating” of at least B+, V, as set forth in the most current issue of “Best’s Insurance Guide”, or such other rating as may be required by a Lender. Lessee shall not do or permit to be done anything which invalidates the required insurance policies. Lessee shall, prior to the Start Date, deliver to Lessor certified copies of policies of such insurance or certificates evidencing the existence and amounts of the required insurance. No such policy shall be cancelable or subject to modification except after 30 days prior written notice to Lessor. Lessee shall, at least 30 days prior to the

expiration of such policies, furnish Lessor with evidence of renewals or “insurance binders” evidencing renewal thereof, or Lessor may order such insurance and charge the cost thereof to Lessee, which amount shall be payable by Lessee to Lessor upon demand. Such policies shall be for a term of at least one year, or the length of the remaining term of this Lease, whichever is less. If either Party shall fail to procure and maintain the insurance required to be carried by it, the other Party may, but shall not be required to, procure and maintain the same.
     8.6 Waiver of Subrogation. Without affecting any other rights or remedies, Lessee and Lessor each hereby release and relieve the other, and waive their entire right to recover damages against the other, for loss of or damage to its property arising out of or incident to the perils required to be insured against herein. The effect of such releases and waivers is not limited by the amount of insurance carried or required, or by any deductibles applicable hereto. The Parties agree to have their respective property damage insurance carriers waive any right to subrogation that such companies may have against Lessor or Lessee, as the case may be, so long as the insurance is not invalidated thereby.
     8.7 Indemnity. Except for Lessor’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, Lessee shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless the Premises, Lessor and its agents, Lessor’s master or ground lessor, partners and Lenders, from and against any and all claims, loss of rents and/or damages, liens, judgments, penalties, attorneys’ and consultants’ fees, expenses and/or liabilities arising out of, involving, or in connection with, the use and/or occupancy of the Premises by Lessee. If any action or proceeding is brought against Lessor by reason of any of the foregoing matters, Lessee shall upon notice defend the same at Lessee’s expense by counsel reasonably satisfactory to Lessor and Lessor shall cooperate with Lessee in such defense. Lessor need not have first paid any such claim in order to be defended or indemnified.
     8.8 Exemption of Lessor from Liability. Lessor shall not be liable for injury or damage to the person or goods, wares, merchandise or other property of Lessee, Lessee’s employees, contractors, invitees, customers, or any other person in or about the Premises, whether such damage or injury is caused by or results from fire, steam, electricity, gas, water or rain, or from the breakage, leakage, obstruction or other defects of pipes, fire sprinklers, wires, appliances, plumbing, HVAC or lighting fixtures, or from any other cause, whether the said injury or damage results from conditions arising upon the Premises or upon other portions of the building of which the Premises are a part, or from other sources or places. Lessor shall not be liable for any damages arising from any act or neglect of any other tenant of Lessor nor from the failure of Lessor to enforce the provisions of any other lease in the Project. Notwithstanding Lessor’s negligence or breach of this Lease, Lessor shall under no circumstances be liable for injury to Lessee’s business or for any loss of income or profit therefrom.
     8.9 Failure to Provide Insurance. Lessee acknowledges that any failure on its part to obtain or maintain the insurance required herein will expose Lessor to risks and potentially cause Lessor to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the extent of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, for any month or portion thereof that Lessee does not maintain the required insurance and/or does not provide Lessor with the required binders or certificates evidencing the existance of the required insurance, the Base Rent shall be automatically increased, without any requirement for notice to Lessee, by an amount equal to 10% of the then existing Base Rent or $100, whichever is greater. The parties agree that such increase in Base Rent represents fair and reasonable compensation for the additional risk/ costs that Lessor will incur by reason of Lessee’s failure to maintain the required insurance. Such increase in Base Rent shall in no event constitute a waiver of Lessee’s Default or Breach with respect to the failure to maintain such insurance, prevent the exercise of any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder, nor relieve Lessee of its obligation to maintain the insurance specified in this Lease.
9. Damage or Destruction.
     9.1 Definitions.
          (a) “Premises Partial Damage” shall mean damage or destruction to the improvements on the Premises, other than Lessee Owned Alterations and Utility Installations, which can reasonably be repaired in 6 months or less from the date of the damage or destruction. Lessor shall notify Lessee in writing within 30 days from the date of the damage or destruction as to whether or not the damage is Partial or Total.
          (b) “Premises Total Destruction” shall mean damage or destruction to the Premises, other than Lessee Owned Alterations and Utility Installations and Trade Fixtures, which cannot reasonably be repaired in 6 months or less from the date of the damage or destruction. Lessor shall notify Lessee in writing within 30 days from the date of the damage or destruction as to whether or not the damage is Partial or Total.
          (c) “Insured Loss” shall mean damage or destruction to improvements on the Premises, other than Lessee Owned Alterations and Utility Installations and Trade Fixtures, which was caused by an event required to be covered by the insurance described in Paragraph 8.3(a), irrespective of any deductible amounts or coverage limits involved.

          (d) “Replacement Cost” shall mean the cost to repair or rebuild the improvements owned by Lessor at the time of the occurrence to their condition existing immediately prior thereto, including demolition, debris removal and upgrading required by the operation of Applicable Requirements, and without deduction for depreciation.
          (e) “Hazardous Substance Condition” shall mean the occurrence or discovery of a condition involving the presence of, or a contamination by, a Hazardous Substance as defined in Paragraph 6.2(a), in, on, or under the Premises which requires repair, remediation, or restoration.
     9.2 Partial Damage — Insured Loss. If a Premises Partial Damage that is an Insured Loss occurs, then Lessor shall, at Lessor’s expense, repair such damage (but not Lessee’s Trade Fixtures or Lessee Owned Alterations and Utility Installations) as soon as reasonably possible and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect; provided, however, that Lessee shall, at Lessor’s election, make the repair of any damage or destruction the total cost to repair of which is $10,000 or less, and, in such event, Lessor shall make any applicable insurance proceeds available to Lessee on a reasonable basis for that purpose. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the required insurance was not in force or the insurance proceeds are not sufficient to effect such repair, the Insuring Party shall promptly contribute the shortage in proceeds (except as to the deductible which is Lessee’s responsibility) as and when required to complete said repairs. In the event, however, such shortage was due to the fact that, by reason of the unique nature of the improvements, full replacement cost insurance coverage was not commercially reasonable and available, Lessor shall have no obligation to pay for the shortage in insurance proceeds or to fully restore the unique aspects of the Premises unless Lessee provides Lessor with the funds to cover same, or adequate assurance thereof, within 10 days following receipt of written notice of such shortage and request therefor. If Lessor receives said funds or adequate assurance thereof within said 10 day period, the party responsible for making the repairs shall complete them as soon as reasonably possible and this Lease shall remain in full force and effect. If such funds or assurance are not received, Lessor may nevertheless elect by written notice to Lessee within 10 days thereafter to: (i) make such restoration and repair as is commercially reasonable with Lessor paying any shortage in proceeds, in which case this Lease shall remain in full force and effect, or (ii) have this Lease terminate 30 days thereafter. Lessee shall not be entitled to reimbursement of any funds contributed by Lessee to repair any such damage or destruction. Premises Partial Damage due to flood or earthquake shall be subject to Paragraph 9.3, notwithstanding that there may be some insurance coverage, but the net proceeds of any such insurance shall be made available for the repairs if made by either Party.
     9.3 Partial Damage — Uninsured Loss. If a Premises Partial Damage that is not an Insured Loss occurs, unless caused by a negligent or willful act of Lessee (in which event Lessee shall make the repairs at Lessee’s expense), Lessor may either: (i) repair such damage as soon as reasonably possible at Lessor’s expense, in which event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, or (ii) terminate this Lease by giving written notice to Lessee within 30 days after receipt by Lessor of knowledge of the occurrence of such damage. Such termination shall be effective 60 days following the date of such notice. In the event Lessor elects to terminate this Lease, Lessee shall have the right within 10 days after receipt of the termination notice to give written notice to Lessor of Lessee’s commitment to pay for the repair of such damage without reimbursement from Lessor. Lessee shall provide Lessor with said funds or satisfactory assurance thereof within 30 days after making such commitment. In such event this Lease shall continue in full force and effect, and Lessor shall proceed to make such repairs as soon as reasonably possible after the required funds are available. If Lessee does not make the required commitment, this Lease shall terminate as of the date specified in the termination notice.
     9.4 Total Destruction. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if a Premises Total Destruction occurs, this Lease shall terminate 60 days following such Destruction. If the damage or destruction was caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lessee, Lessor shall have the right to recover Lessor’s damages from Lessee, except as provided in Paragraph 8.6.
     9.5 Damage Near End of Term. If at any time during the last 6 months of this Lease there is damage for which the cost to repair exceeds one month’s Base Rent, whether or not an Insured Loss, Lessor may terminate this Lease effective 60 days following the date of occurrence of such damage by giving a written termination notice to Lessee within 30 days after the date of occurrence of such damage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Lessee at that time has an exercisable option to extend this Lease or to purchase the Premises, then Lessee may preserve this Lease by, (a) exercising such option and (b) providing Lessor with any shortage in insurance proceeds (or adequate assurance thereof) needed to make the repairs on or before the earlier of (i) the date which is 10 days after Lessee’s receipt of Lessor’s written notice purporting to terminate this Lease, or (ii) the day prior to the date upon which such option expires. If Lessee duly exercises such option during such period and provides Lessor with funds (or adequate assurance thereof) to cover any shortage in insurance proceeds, Lessor shall, at Lessor’s commercially reasonable expense, repair such damage as soon as reasonably possible and this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. If Lessee fails to exercise such option and provide such funds or assurance during such period, then this Lease shall terminate on the date specified in the termination notice and Lessee’s option shall be extinguished.

     9.6 Abatement of Rent; Lessee’s Remedies.
          (a) Abatement. In the event of Premises Partial Damage or Premises Total Destruction or a Hazardous Substance Condition for which Lessee is not responsible under this Lease, the Rent payable by Lessee for the period required for the repair, remediation or restoration of such damage shall be abated in proportion to the degree to which Lessee’s use of the Premises is impaired, but not to exceed the proceeds received from the Rental Value insurance. All other obligations of Lessee hereunder shall be performed by Lessee, and Lessor shall have no liability for any such damage, destruction, remediation, repair or restoration except as provided herein.
          (b) Remedies. If Lessor shall be obligated to repair or restore the Premises and does not commence, in a substantial and meaningful way, such repair or restoration within 90 days after such obligation shall accrue, Lessee may, at any time prior to the commencement of such repair or restoration, give written notice to Lessor and to any Lenders of which Lessee has actual notice, of Lessee’s election to terminate this Lease on a date not less than 60 days following the giving of such notice. If Lessee gives such notice and such repair or restoration is not commenced within 30 days thereafter, this Lease shall terminate as of the date specified in said notice. If the repair or restoration is commenced within such 30 days, this Lease shall continue in full force and effect. “Commence” shall mean either the unconditional authorization of the preparation of the required plans, or the beginning of the actual work on the Premises, whichever first occurs.
     9.7 Termination; Advance Payments. Upon termination of this Lease pursuant to Paragraph 6.2(g) or Paragraph 9, an equitable adjustment shall be made concerning advance Base Rent and any other advance payments made by Lessee to Lessor. Lessor shall, in addition, return to Lessee so much of Lessee’s Security Deposit as has not been, or is not then required to be, used by Lessor.
     9.8 Waive Statutes. Lessor and Lessee agree that the terms of this Lease shall govern the effect of any damage to or destruction of the Premises with respect to the termination of this Lease and hereby waive the provisions of any present or future statute to the extent inconsistent herewith.
10. Real Property Taxes.
     10.1 Definition. As used herein, the term “Real Property Taxes” shall include any form of assessment; real estate, general, special, ordinary or extraordinary, or rental levy or tax (other than inheritance, personal income or estate taxes); improvement bond; and/or license fee imposed upon or levied against any legal or equitable interest of Lessor in the Premises or the Project, Lessor’s right to other income therefrom, and/or Lessor’s business of leasing, by any authority having the direct or indirect power to tax and where the funds are generated with reference to the Building address and where the proceeds so generated are to be applied by the city, county or other local taxing authority of a jurisdiction within which the Premises are located. Real Property Taxes shall also include any tax, fee, levy, assessment or charge, or any increase therein: (i) imposed by reason of events occurring during the term of this Lease, and (ii) levied or assessed on machinery or equipment provided by Lessor to Lessee pursuant to this Lease.
     10.2
          (a) Payment of Taxes. Lessor shall pay the Real Property Taxes applicable to the Premises provided, however, that Lessee shall pay to Lessor the amount, if any, by which Real Property Taxes applicable to the Premises increase over the fiscal tax year during which the Commencement Date Occurs (”Tax Increase“). Payment of any such Tax Increase shall be made by Lessee to Lessor within 30 days after receipt of Lessor’s written statement setting forth the amount due and computation thereof. If any such taxes shall cover any period of time prior to or after the expiration or termination of this Lease, Lessee’s share of such taxes shall be prorated to cover only that portion of the tax bill applicable to the period that this Lease is in effect. In the event lessee incurs a late charge on any Rent payment, Lessor may estimate the current Real Property Taxes, and require that the Tax Increase be paid in advance to Lessor by Lessee monthly in advance with the payment of the Base Rent. Such monthly payment shall be an amount equal to the amount of the estimated installment of the Tax Increase divided by the number of months remaining before the month in which said installment becomes delinquent. When the actual amount of the applicable Tax Increase is known, the amount of such equal monthly advance payments shall be adjusted as required to provide the funds needed to pay the applicable Tax Increase. If the amount collected by Lessor is insufficient to pay the Tax Increase when due, Lessee shall pay Lessor, upon demand, such additional sums as are necessary to pay such obligations. Advance payments may be intermingled with other moneys of Lessor and shall not bear interest. In the event of a Breach by Lessee in the performance of its obligations under this Lease, then any such advance payments may be treated by Lessor as an additional Security Deposit.
          (b) Additional Improvements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Paragraph 10.2, Lessee shall pay to Lessor upon demand therefor the entirety of any increase in Real Property Taxes assessed by reason of Alterations or Utility Installations placed upon the Premises by Lessee or at Lessee’s request.

     10.3 Joint Assessment. If the Premises are not separately assessed, Lessee’s liability shall be an equitable proportion of the Tax Increase for all of the land and improvements included within the tax parcel assessed, such proportion to be conclusively determined by Lessor from the respective valuations assigned in the assessor’s work sheets or such other information as may be reasonably available.
     10.4 Personal Property Taxes. Lessee shall pay, prior to delinquency, all taxes assessed against and levied upon Lessee Owned Alterations, Utility Installations, Trade Fixtures, furnishings, equipment and all personal property of Lessee. When possible, Lessee shall cause its Lessee Owned Alterations and Utility Installations, Trade Fixtures, furnishings, equipment and all other personal property to be assessed and billed separately from the real property of Lessor. If any of Lessee’s said property shall be assessed with Lessor’s real property, Lessee shall pay Lessor the taxes attributable to Lessee’s property within 10 days after receipt of a written statement setting forth the taxes applicable to Lessee’s property.
11. Utilities and Services. Lessee shall pay for all water, gas, heat, light, power, telephone, trash disposal and other utilities and services supplied to the Premises, together with any taxes thereon. If any such services are not separately metered or billed to Lessee, Lessee shall pay a reasonable proportion, to be determined by Lessor, of all charges jointly metered or billed. There shall be no abatement of rent and Lessor shall not be liable in any respect whatsoever for the inadequacy, stoppage, interruption or discontinuance of any utility or service due to riot, strike, labor dispute, breakdown, accident, repair or other cause beyond Lessor’s reasonable control or in cooperation with governmental request or directions.
12. Assignment and Subletting.
     12.1 Lessor’s Consent Required.
          (a) Lessee shall not voluntarily or by operation of law assign, transfer, mortgage or encumber (collectively, “assign or assignment”) or sublet all or any part of Lessee’s interest in this Lease or in the Premises without Lessor’s prior written consent.
          (b) Unless Lessee is a corporation and its stock is publicly traded on a national stock exchange, a change in the control of Lessee shall constitute an assignment requiring consent. The transfer, on a cumulative basis, of 25% or more of the voting control of Lessee shall constitute a change in control for this purpose.
          (c) The involvement of Lessee or its assets in any transaction, or series of transactions (by way of merger, sale, acquisition, financing, transfer, leveraged buy-out or otherwise), whether or not a formal assignment or hypothecation of this Lease or Lessee’s assets occurs, which results or will result in a reduction of the Net Worth of Lessee by an amount greater than 25% of such Net Worth as it was represented at the time of the execution of this Lease or at the time of the most recent assignment to which Lessor has consented, or as it exists immediately prior to said transaction or transactions constituting such reduction, whichever was or is greater, shall be considered an assignment of this Lease to which Lessor may withhold its consent. “Net Worth of Lessee” shall mean the net worth of Lessee (excluding any guarantors) established under generally accepted accounting principles.
          (d) An assignment or subletting without consent shall, at Lessor’s option, be a Default curable after notice per Paragraph 13.1(c), or a noncurable Breach without the necessity of any notice and grace period. If Lessor elects to treat such unapproved assignment or subletting as a noncurable Breach, Lessor may either: (i) terminate this Lease, or (ii) upon 30 days written notice, increase the monthly Base Rent to 110% of the Base Rent then in effect. Further, in the event of such Breach and rental adjustment, (i) the purchase price of any option to purchase the Premises held by Lessee shall be subject to similar adjustment to 110% of the price previously in effect, and (ii) all fixed and non-fixed rental adjustments scheduled during the remainder of the Lease term shall be increased to 110% of the scheduled adjusted rent.
          (e) Lessee’s remedy for any breach of Paragraph 12.1 by Lessor shall be limited to compensatory damages and/or injunctive relief.
     12.2 Terms and Conditions Applicable to Assignment and Subletting.
          (a) Regardless of Lessor’s consent, no assignment or subletting shall: (i) be effective without the express written assumption by such assignee or sublessee of the obligations of Lessee under this Lease, (ii) release Lessee of any obligations hereunder, or (iii) alter the primary liability of Lessee for the payment of Rent or for the performance of any other obligations to be performed by Lessee.
          (b) Lessor may accept Rent or performance of Lessee’s obligations from any person other than Lessee pending approval or disapproval of an assignment. Neither a delay in the approval or disapproval of such assignment nor the acceptance of Rent or performance shall constitute a waiver or estoppel of Lessor’s right to exercise its remedies for Lessee’s Default or Breach.

          (c) Lessor’s consent to any assignment or subletting shall not constitute a consent to any subsequent assignment or subletting.
          (d) In the event of any Default or Breach by Lessee, Lessor may proceed directly against Lessee, any Guarantors or anyone else responsible for the performance of Lessee’s obligations under this Lease, including any assignee or sublessee, without first exhausting Lessor’s remedies against any other person or entity responsible therefor to Lessor, or any security held by Lessor.
          (e) Each request for consent to an assignment or subletting shall be in writing, accompanied by information relevant to Lessor’s determination as to the financial and operational responsibility and appropriateness of the proposed assignee or sublessee, including but not limited to the intended use and/or required modification of the Premises, if any, together with a fee of $500 as consideration for Lessor’s considering and processing said request. Lessee agrees to provide Lessor with such other or additional information and/or documentation as may be reasonably requested. (See also Paragraph 36)
          (f) Any assignee of, or sublessee under, this Lease shall, by reason of accepting such assignment or entering into such sublease, be deemed to have assumed and agreed to conform and comply with each and every term, covenant, condition and obligation herein to be observed or performed by Lessee during the term of said assignment or sublease, other than such obligations as are contrary to or inconsistent with provisions of an assignment or sublease to which Lessor has specifically consented to in writing.
          (g) Lessor’s consent to any assignment or subletting shall not transfer to the assignee or sublessee any Option granted to the original Lessee by this Lease unless such transfer is specifically consented to by Lessor in writing. (See Paragraph 39.2)
     12.3 Additional Terms and Conditions Applicable to Subletting. The following terms and conditions shall apply to any subletting by Lessee of all or any part of the Premises and shall be deemed included in all subleases under this Lease whether or not expressly incorporated therein:
          (a) Lessee hereby assigns and transfers to Lessor all of Lessee’s interest in all Rent payable on any sublease, and Lessor may collect such Rent and apply same toward Lessee’s obligations under this Lease; provided, however, that until a Breach shall occur in the performance of Lessee’s obligations, Lessee may collect said Rent. In the event that the amount collected by Lessor exceeds Lessee’s obligations any such excess shall be refunded to Lessee. Lessor shall not, by reason of the foregoing or any assignment of such sublease, nor by reason of the collection of Rent, be deemed liable to the sublessee for any failure of Lessee to perform and comply with any of Lessee’s obligations to such sublessee. Lessee hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs any such sublessee, upon receipt of a written notice from Lessor stating that a Breach exists in the performance of Lessee’s obligations under this Lease, to pay to Lessor all Rent due and to become due under the sublease. Sublessee shall rely upon any such notice from Lessor and shall pay all Rents to Lessor without any obligation or right to inquire as to whether such Breach exists, notwithstanding any claim from Lessee to the contrary.
          (b) In the event of a Breach by Lessee, Lessor may, at its option, require sublessee to attorn to Lessor, in which event Lessor shall undertake the obligations of the sublessor under such sublease from the time of the exercise of said option to the expiration of such sublease; provided, however, Lessor shall not be liable for any prepaid rents or security deposit paid by such sublessee to such sublessor or for any prior Defaults or Breaches of such sublessor.
          (c) Any matter requiring the consent of the sublessor under a sublease shall also require the consent of Lessor.
          (d) No sublessee shall further assign or sublet all or any part of the Premises without Lessor’s prior written consent.
          (e) Lessor shall deliver a copy of any notice of Default or Breach by Lessee to the sublessee, who shall have the right to cure the Default of Lessee within the grace period, if any, specified in such notice. The sublessee shall have a right of reimbursement and offset from and against Lessee for any such Defaults cured by the sublessee.
13. Default; Breach; Remedies.
     13.1 Default; Breach. A “Default” is defined as a failure by the Lessee to comply with or perform any of the terms, covenants, conditions or Rules and Regulations under this Lease. A "Breach” is defined as the occurrence of one or more of the following Defaults, and the failure of Lessee to cure such Default within any applicable grace period:
          (a) The abandonment of the Premises; or the vacating of the Premises without providing a commercially reasonable level of security, or where the coverage of the property insurance described in Paragraph 8.3 is jeopardized as a result thereof, or without providing reasonable assurances to minimize potential vandalism.

          (b) The failure of Lessee to make any payment of Rent or any Security Deposit required to be made by Lessee hereunder, whether to Lessor or to a third party, when due, to provide reasonable evidence of insurance or surety bond, or to fulfill any obligation under this Lease which endangers or threatens life or property, where such failure continues for a period of 3 business days following written notice to Lessee.
          (c) The failure by Lessee to provide (i) reasonable written evidence of compliance with Applicable Requirements, (ii) the service contracts, (iii) the rescission of an unauthorized assignment or subletting, (iv) an Estoppel Certificate, (v) a requested subordination, (vi) evidence concerning any guaranty and/or Guarantor, (vii) any document requested under Paragraph 42, (viii) material safety data sheets (MSDS), or (ix) any other documentation or information which Lessor may reasonably require of Lessee under the terms of this Lease, where any such failure continues for a period of 10 days following written notice to Lessee.
          (d) A Default by Lessee as to the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of this Lease, or of the rules adopted under Paragraph 40 hereof, other than those described in subparagraphs 13.1(a), (b) or (c), above, where such Default continues for a period of 30 days after written notice; provided, however, that if the nature of Lessee’s Default is such that more than 30 days are reasonably required for its cure, then it shall not be deemed to be a Breach if Lessee commences such cure within said 30 day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to completion.
          (e) The occurrence of any of the following events: (i) the making of any general arrangement or assignment for the benefit of creditors; (ii) becoming a “debtor” as defined in 11 U.S.C. §101 or any successor statute thereto (unless, in the case of a petition filed against Lessee, the same is dismissed within 60 days); (iii) the appointment of a trustee or receiver to take possession of substantially all of Lessee’s assets located at the Premises or of Lessee’s interest in this Lease, where possession is not restored to Lessee within 30 days; or (iv) the attachment, execution or other judicial seizure of substantially all of Lessee’s assets located at the Premises or of Lessee’s interest in this Lease, where such seizure is not discharged within 30 days; provided, however, in the event that any provision of this subparagraph (e) is contrary to any applicable law, such provision shall be of no force or effect, and not affect the validity of the remaining provisions.
          (f) The discovery that any financial statement of Lessee or of any Guarantor given to Lessor was materially false.
          (g) If the performance of Lessee’s obligations under this Lease is guaranteed: (i) the death of a Guarantor, (ii) the termination of a Guarantor’s liability with respect to this Lease other than in accordance with the terms of such guaranty, (iii) a Guarantor’s becoming insolvent or the subject of a bankruptcy filing, (iv) a Guarantor’s refusal to honor the guaranty, or (v) a Guarantor’s breach of its guaranty obligation on an anticipatory basis, and Lessee’s failure, within 60 days following written notice of any such event, to provide written alternative assurance or security, which, when coupled with the then existing resources of Lessee, equals or exceeds the combined financial resources of Lessee and the Guarantors that existed at the time of execution of this Lease.
     13.2 Remedies. If Lessee fails to perform any of its affirmative duties or obligations, within 10 days after written notice (or in case of an emergency, without notice), Lessor may, at its option, perform such duty or obligation on Lessee’s behalf, including but not limited to the obtaining of reasonably required bonds, insurance policies, or governmental licenses, permits or approvals. Lessee shall pay to Lessor an amount equal to 115% of the costs and expenses incurred by Lessor in such performance upon receipt of an invoice therefor. In the event of a Breach, Lessor may, with or without further notice or demand, and without limiting Lessor in the exercise of any right or remedy which Lessor may have by reason of such Breach:
          (a) Terminate Lessee’s right to possession of the Premises by any lawful means, in which case this Lease shall terminate and Lessee shall immediately surrender possession to Lessor. In such event Lessor shall be entitled to recover from Lessee: (i) the unpaid Rent which had been earned at the time of termination; (ii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent which would have been earned after termination until the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that the Lessee proves could have been reasonably avoided; (iii) the worth at the time of award of the amount by which the unpaid rent for the balance of the term after the time of award exceeds the amount of such rental loss that the Lessee proves could be reasonably avoided; and (iv) any other amount necessary to compensate Lessor for all the detriment proximately caused by the Lessee’s failure to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course of things would be likely to result therefrom, including but not limited to the cost of recovering possession of the Premises, expenses of reletting, including necessary renovation and alteration of the Premises, reasonable attorneys’ fees, and that portion of any leasing commission paid by Lessor in connection with this Lease applicable to the unexpired term of this Lease. The worth at the time of award of the amount referred to in provision (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence shall be computed by discounting such amount at the discount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of the District within which the Premises are located at the time of award plus one percent. Efforts by Lessor to mitigate damages caused by Lessee’s Breach of this Lease shall not waive Lessor’s right to recover damages under Paragraph 12. If termination of this Lease is obtained through the provisional remedy of unlawful detainer, Lessor shall have the right to recover in such

proceeding any unpaid Rent and damages as are recoverable therein, or Lessor may reserve the right to recover all or any part thereof in a separate suit. If a notice and grace period required under Paragraph 13.1 was not previously given, a notice to pay rent or quit, or to perform or quit given to Lessee under the unlawful detainer statute shall also constitute the notice required by Paragraph 13.1. In such case, the applicable grace period required by Paragraph 13.1 and the unlawful detainer statute shall run concurrently, and the failure of Lessee to cure the Default within the greater of the two such grace periods shall constitute both an unlawful detainer and a Breach of this Lease entitling Lessor to the remedies provided for in this Lease and/or by said statute.
          (b) Continue the Lease and Lessee’s right to possession and recover the Rent as it becomes due, in which event Lessee may sublet or assign, subject only to reasonable limitations. Acts of maintenance, efforts to relet, and/or the appointment of a receiver to protect the Lessor’s interests, shall not constitute a termination of the Lessee’s right to possession.
          (c) Pursue any other remedy now or hereafter available under the laws or judicial decisions of the state wherein the Premises are located. The expiration or termination of this Lease and/or the termination of Lessee’s right to possession shall not relieve Lessee from liability under any indemnity provisions of this Lease as to matters occurring or accruing during the term hereof or by reason of Lessee’s occupancy of the Premises.
     13.3 Inducement Recapture. Any agreement for free or abated rent or other charges, or for the giving or paying by Lessor to or for Lessee of any cash or other bonus, inducement or consideration for Lessee’s entering into this Lease, all of which concessions are hereinafter referred to as "Inducement Provisions,” shall be deemed conditioned upon Lessee’s full and faithful performance of all of the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease. Upon Breach of this Lease by Lessee, any such Inducement Provision shall automatically be deemed deleted from this Lease and of no further force or effect, and any rent, other charge, bonus, inducement or consideration theretofore abated, given or paid by Lessor under such an inducement Provision shall be immediately due and payable by Lessee to Lessor, notwithstanding any subsequent cure of said Breach by Lessee. The acceptance by Lessor of rent or the cure of the Breach which initiated the operation of this paragraph shall not be deemed a waiver by Lessor of the provisions of this paragraph unless specifically so stated in writing by Lessor at the time of such acceptance.
     13.4 Late Charges. Lessee hereby acknowledges that late payment by Lessee of Rent will cause Lessor to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to, processing and accounting charges, and late charges which may be imposed upon Lessor by any Lender. Accordingly, if any Rent shall not be received by Lessor within 5 days after such amount shall be due, then, without any requirement for notice to Lessee, Lessee shall immediately pay to Lessor a one-time late charge equal to 10% of each such overdue amount or $100, whichever is greater. The Parties hereby agree that such late charge represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs Lessor will incur by reason of such late payment. Acceptance of such late charge by Lessor shall in no event constitute a waiver of Lessee’s Default or Breach with respect to such overdue amount, nor prevent the exercise of any of the other rights and remedies granted hereunder. In the event that a late charge is payable hereunder, whether or not collected, for 3 consecutive installments of Base Rent, then notwithstanding any provision of this Lease to the contrary, Base Rent shall, at Lessor’s option, become due and payable quarterly in advance.
     13.5 Interest. Any monetary payment due Lessor hereunder, other than late charges, not received by Lessor, when due as to scheduled payments (such as Base Rent) or within 30 days following the date on which it was due for non-scheduled payment, shall bear interest from the date when due, as to scheduled payments, or the 31st day after it was due as to non-scheduled payments. The interest (“Interest”) charged shall be computed at the rate of 10% per annum but shall not exceed the maximum rate allowed by law. Interest is payable in addition to the potential late charge provided for in Paragraph 13.4.
     13.6 Breach by Lessor.
          (a) Notice of Breach. Lessor shall not be deemed in breach of this Lease unless Lessor fails within a reasonable time to perform an obligation required to be performed by Lessor. For purposes of this Paragraph, a reasonable time shall in no event be less than 30 days after receipt by Lessor, and any Lender whose name and address shall have been furnished Lessee in writing for such purpose, of written notice specifying wherein such obligation of Lessor has not been performed; provided, however, that if the nature of Lessor’s obligation is such that more than 30 days are reasonably required for its performance, then Lessor shall not be in breach if performance is commenced within such 30 day period and thereafter diligently pursued to completion.
          (b) Performance by Lessee on Behalf of Lessor. In the event that neither Lessor nor Lender cures said breach within 30 days after receipt of said notice, or if having commenced said cure they do not diligently pursue it to completion, then Lessee may elect to cure said breach at Lessee’s expense and offset from Rent the actual and reasonable cost to perform such cure, provided however, that such offset shall not exceed an amount equal to the greater of one month’s Base Rent or the Security

Deposit, reserving Lessee’s right to seek reimbursement from Lessor. Lessee shall document the cost of said cure and supply said documentation to Lessor.
14. Condemnation. If the Premises or any portion thereof are taken under the power of eminent domain or sold under the threat of the exercise of said power (collectively “Condemnation”), this Lease shall terminate as to the part taken as of the date the condemning authority takes title or possession, whichever first occurs. If more than 10% of the Building, or more than 25% of that portion of the Premises not occupied by any building, is taken by Condemnation, Lessee may, at Lessee’s option, to be exercised in writing within 10 days after Lessor shall have given Lessee written notice of such taking (or in the absence of such notice, within 10 days after the condemning authority shall have taken possession) terminate this Lease as of the date the condemning authority takes such possession. If Lessee does not terminate this Lease in accordance with the foregoing, this Lease shall remain in full force and effect as to the portion of the Premises remaining, except that the Base Rent shall be reduced in proportion to the reduction in utility of the Premises caused by such Condemnation. Condemnation awards and/or payments shall be the property of Lessor, whether such award shall be made as compensation for diminution in value of the leasehold, the value of the part taken, or for severance damages; provided, however, that Lessee shall be entitled to any compensation for Lessee’s relocation expenses, loss of business goodwill and/or Trade Fixtures, without regard to whether or not this Lease is terminated pursuant to the provisions of this Paragraph. All Alterations and Utility Installations made to the Premises by Lessee, for purposes of Condemnation only, shall be considered the property of the Lessee and Lessee shall be entitled to any and all compensation which is payable therefor. In the event that this Lease is not terminated by reason of the Condemnation, Lessor shall repair any damage to the Premises caused by such Condemnation.
15. Brokerage Fees.
     15.1 Additional Commission. In addition to the payments owed pursuant to Paragraph 1.9 above, and unless Lessor and the Brokers otherwise agree in writing, Lessor agrees that: (a) if Lessee exercises any Option, (b) if Lessee acquires any rights to the Premises or other premises owned by Lessor and located within the same Project, if any, within which the Premises is located, (c) if Lessee remains in possession of the Premises, with the consent of Lessor, after the expiration of this Lease, or (d) if Base Rent is increased, whether by agreement or operation of an escalation clause herein, then, Lessor shall pay Brokers a fee in accordance with the schedule of the Brokers in effect at the time of the execution of this Lease.
     15.2 Assumption of Obligations. Any buyer or transferee of Lessor’s interest in this Lease shall be deemed to have assumed Lessor’s obligation hereunder. Brokers shall be third party beneficiaries of the provisions of Paragraphs 1.9, 15, 22 and 31. If Lessor fails to pay to Brokers any amounts due as and for brokerage fees pertaining to this Lease when due, then such amounts shall accrue Interest. In addition, if Lessor fails to pay any amounts to Lessee’s Broker when due, Lessee’s Broker may send written notice to Lessor and Lessee of such failure and if Lessor fails to pay such amounts within 10 days after said notice, Lessee shall pay said monies to its Broker and offset such amounts against Rent. In addition, Lessee’s Broker shall be deemed to be a third party beneficiary of any commission agreement entered into by and/or between Lessor and Lessor’s Broker for the limited purpose of collecting any brokerage fee owed.
     15.3 Representations and Indemnities of Broker Relationships. Lessee and Lessor each represent and warrant to the other that it has had no dealings with any person, firm, broker or finder (other than the Brokers, if any) in connection with this Lease, and that no one other than said named Brokers is entitled to any commission or finder’s fee in connection herewith. Lessee and Lessor do each hereby agree to indemnify, protect, defend and hold the other harmless from and against liability for compensation or charges which may be claimed by any such unnamed broker, finder or other similar party by reason of any dealings or actions of the indemnifying Party, including any costs, expenses, attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred with respect thereto.
16. Estoppel Certificates.
          (a) Each Party (as “Responding Party”) shall within 10 days after written notice from the other Party (the “Requesting Party”) execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Requesting Party a statement in writing in form similar to the then most current “Estoppel Certificate” form published by the AIR Commercial Real Estate Association, plus such additional information, confirmation and/or statements as may be reasonably requested by the Requesting Party.
          (b) If the Responding Party shall fail to execute or deliver the Estoppel Certificate within such 10 day period, the Requesting Party may execute an Estoppel Certificate stating that: (i) the Lease is in full force and effect without modification except as may be represented by the Requesting Party, (ii) there are no uncured defaults in the Requesting Party’s performance, and (iii) if Lessor is the Requesting Party, not more than one month’s rent has been paid in advance. Prospective purchasers and encumbrancers may rely upon the Requesting Party’s Estoppel Certificate, and the Responding Party shall be estopped from denying the truth of the facts contained in said Certificate.

          (c) If Lessor desires to finance, refinance, or sell the Premises, or any part thereof, Lessee and all Guarantors shall deliver to any potential lender or purchaser designated by Lessor such financial statements as may be reasonably required by such lender or purchaser, including but not limited to Lessee’s financial statements for the past 3 years. All such financial statements shall be received by Lessor and such lender or purchaser in confidence and shall be used only for the purposes herein set forth.
17. Definition of Lessor. The term “Lessor” as used herein shall mean the owner or owners at the time in question of the fee title to the Premises, or, if this is a sublease, of the Lessee’s interest in the prior lease. In the event of a transfer of Lessor’s title or interest in the Premises or this Lease, Lessor shall deliver to the transferee or assignee (in cash or by credit) any unused Security Deposit held by Lessor. Except as provided in Paragraph 15, upon such transfer or assignment and delivery of the Security Deposit, as aforesaid, the prior Lessor shall be relieved of all liability with respect to the obligations and/or covenants under this Lease thereafter to be performed by the Lessor. Subject to the foregoing, the obligations and/or covenants in this Lease to be performed by the Lessor shall be binding only upon the Lessor as hereinabove defined.
18. Severability. The invalidity of any provision of this Lease, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, shall in no way affect the validity of any other provision hereof.
19. Days. Unless otherwise specifically indicated to the contrary, the word “days” as used in this Lease shall mean and refer to calendar days.
20. Limitation on Liability. The obligations of Lessor under this Lease shall not constitute personal obligations of Lessor or its partners, members, directors, officers or shareholders, and Lessee shall look to the Premises, and to no other assets of Lessor, for the satisfaction of any liability of Lessor with respect to this Lease, and shall not seek recourse against Lessor’s partners, members, directors, officers or shareholders, or any of their personal assets for such satisfaction.
21. Time of Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to the performance of all obligations to be performed or observed by the Parties under this Lease.
22. No Prior or Other Agreements; Broker Disclaimer. This Lease contains all agreements between the Parties with respect to any matter mentioned herein, and no other prior or contemporaneous agreement or understanding shall be effective. Lessor and Lessee each represents and warrants to the Brokers that it has made, and is relying solely upon, its own investigation as to the nature, quality, character and financial responsibility of the other Party to this Lease and as to the use, nature, quality and character of the Premises. Brokers have no responsibility with respect thereto or with respect to any default or breach hereof by either Party. The liability (including court costs and attorneys’ fees), of any Broker with respect to negotiation, execution, delivery or performance by either Lessor or Lessee under this Lease or any amendment or modification hereto shall be limited to an amount up to the fee received by such Broker pursuant to this Lease; provided, however, that the foregoing limitation on each Broker’s liability shall not be applicable to any gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Broker.
23. Notices.
     23.1 Notice Requirements. All notices required or permitted by this Lease or applicable law shall be in writing and may be delivered in person (by hand or by courier) or may be sent by regular, certified or registered mail or U.S. Postal Service Express Mail, with postage prepaid, or by facsimile transmission, and shall be deemed sufficiently given if served in a manner specified in this Paragraph 23. The addresses noted adjacent to a Party’s signature on this Lease shall be that Party’s address for delivery or mailing of notices. Either Party may by written notice to the other specify a different address for notice, except that upon Lessee’s taking possession of the Premises, the Premises shall constitute Lessee’s address for notice. A copy of all notices to Lessor shall be concurrently transmitted to such party or parties at such addresses as Lessor may from time to time hereafter designate in writing.
     23.2 Date of Notice. Any notice sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, shall be deemed given on the date of delivery shown on the receipt card, or if no delivery date is shown, the postmark thereon. If sent by regular mail the notice shall be deemed given 48 hours after the same is addressed as required herein and mailed with postage prepaid. Notices delivered by United States Express Mail or overnight courier that guarantee next day delivery shall be deemed given 24 hours after delivery of the same to the Postal Service or courier. Notices transmitted by facsimile transmission or similar means shall be deemed delivered upon telephone confirmation of receipt (confirmation report from fax machine is sufficient), provided a copy is also delivered via delivery or mail. If notice is received on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, it shall be deemed received on the next business day.
24. Waivers. No waiver by Lessor of the Default or Breach of any term, covenant or condition hereof by Lessee, shall be deemed a waiver of any other term, covenant or condition hereof, or of any subsequent Default or Breach by Lessee of the same or of any other term, covenant or condition hereof. Lessor’s consent to, or approval of, any act shall not be deemed to render unnecessary the obtaining of Lessor’s consent to, or approval of, any subsequent or similar act by Lessee, or be construed as the basis of an estoppel to enforce the provision or provisions of this Lease requiring such consent.

acceptance of Rent by Lessor shall not be a waiver of any Default or Breach by Lessee. Any payment by Lessee may be accepted by Lessor on account of moneys or damages due Lessor, notwithstanding any qualifying statements or conditions made by Lessee in connection therewith, which such statements and/or conditions shall be of no force or effect whatsoever unless specifically agreed to in writing by Lessor at or before the time of deposit of such payment.
25. Disclosures Regarding The Nature of a Real Estate Agency Relationship.
          (a) When entering into a discussion with a real estate agent regarding a real estate transaction, a Lessor or Lessee should from the outset understand what type of agency relationship or representation it has with the agent or agents in the transaction. Lessor and Lessee acknowledge being advised by the Brokers in this transaction, as follows:
               (i) Lessor’s Agent. A Lessor’s agent under a listing agreement with the Lessor acts as the agent for the Lessor only. A Lessor’s agent or subagent has the following affirmative obligations: To the Lessor: A fiduciary duty of utmost care, integrity, honesty, and loyalty in dealings with the Lessor. To the Lessee and the Lessor: a. Diligent exercise of reasonable skills and care in performance of the agent’s duties. b. A duty of honest and fair dealing and good faith. c. A duty to disclose all facts known to the agent materially affecting the value or desirability of the property that are not known to, or within the diligent attention and observation of, the Parties. An agent is not obligated to reveal to either Party any confidential information obtained from the other Party which does not involve the affirmative duties set forth above.
               (ii) Lessee’s Agent. An agent can agree to act as agent for the Lessee only. In these situations, the agent is not the Lessor’s agent, even if by agreement the agent may receive compensation for services rendered, either in full or in part from the Lessor. An agent acting only for a Lessee has the following affirmative obligations. To the Lessee: A fiduciary duty of utmost care, integrity, honesty, and loyalty in dealings with the Lessee. To the Lessee and the Lessor: a. Diligent exercise of reasonable skills and care in performance of the agent’s duties. b. A duty of honest and fair dealing and good faith. c. A duty to disclose all facts known to the agent materially affecting the value or desirability of the property that are not known to, or within the diligent attention and observation of, the Parties. An agent is not obligated to reveal to either Party any confidential information obtained from the other Party which does not involve the affirmative duties set forth above.
               (iii) Agent Representing Both Lessor and Lessee. A real estate agent, either acting directly or through one or more associate licenses, can legally be the agent of both the Lessor and the Lessee in a transaction, but only with the knowledge and consent of both the Lessor and the Lessee. In a dual agency situation, the agent has the following affirmative obligations to both the Lessor and the Lessee: a. A fiduciary duty of utmost care, integrity, honesty and loyalty in the dealings with either Lessor or the Lessee. b. Other duties to the Lessor and the Lessee as stated above in subparagraphs (i) or (ii). In representing both Lessor and Lessee, the agent may not without the express permission of the respective Party, disclose to the other Party that the Lessor will accept rent in an amount less than that indicated in the listing or that the Lessee is willing to pay a higher rent than that offered. The above duties of the agent in a real estate transaction do not relieve a Lessor or Lessee from the responsibility to protect their own interests. Lessor and Lessee should carefully read all agreements to assure that they adequately express their understanding of the transaction. A real estate agent is a person qualified to advise about real estate. If legal or tax advice is desired, consult a competent professional.
          (b) Brokers have no responsibility with respect to any default or breach hereof by either Party. The liability (including court costs and attorneys’ fees), of any Broker with respect to any breach of duty, error or omission relating to this Lease shall not exceed the fee received by such Broker pursuant to this Lease; provided, however, that the foregoing limitation on each Broker’s liability shall not be applicable to any gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Broker.
          (c) Lessor and Lessee agree to identify to Brokers as “Confidential” any communication or information given Brokers that is considered by such Party to be confidential.
26. No Right To Holdover. Lessee has no right to retain possession of the Premises or any part thereof beyond the expiration or termination of this Lease. In the event that Lessee holds over, then the Base Rent shall be increased to 150% of the Base Rent applicable immediately preceding the expiration or termination. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as consent by Lessor to any holding over by Lessee.
27. Cumulative Remedies. No remedy or election hereunder shall be deemed exclusive but shall, wherever possible, be cumulative with all other remedies at law or in equity.
28. Covenants and Conditions; Construction of Agreement. All provisions of this Lease to be observed or performed by Lessee are both covenants and conditions. In construing this Lease, all headings and titles are for the convenience of the Parties only and shall not be considered a part of this Lease. Whenever required by the context, the singular shall include the plural and vice versa. This Lease shall not be construed as if prepared by one of the Parties, but rather according to its fair meaning as a whole, as if both Parties had prepared it.

29. Binding Effect; Choice of Law. This Lease shall be binding upon the Parties, their personal representatives, successors and assigns and be governed by the laws of the State in which the Premises are located. Any litigation between the Parties hereto concerning this Lease shall be initiated in the county in which the Premises are located.
30. Subordination; Attornment; Non-Disturbance.
     30.1 Subordination. This Lease and any Option granted hereby shall be subject and subordinate to any ground lease, mortgage, deed of trust, or other hypothecation or security device (collectively, “Security Device”), now or hereafter placed upon the Premises, to any and all advances made on the security thereof, and to all renewals, modifications, and extensions thereof. Lessee agrees that the holders of any such Security Devices (in this Lease together referred to as "Lender”) shall have no liability or obligation to perform any of the obligations of Lessor under this Lease. Any Lender may elect to have this Lease and/or any Option granted hereby superior to the lien of its Security Device by giving written notice thereof to Lessee, whereupon this Lease and such Options shall be deemed prior to such Security Device, notwithstanding the relative dates of the documentation or recordation thereof.
     30.2 Attornment. In the event that Lessor transfers title to the Premises, or the Premises are acquired by another upon the foreclosure or termination of a Security Device to which this Lease is subordinated (i) Lessee shall, subject to the non-disturbance provisions of Paragraph 30.3, attorn to such new owner, and upon request, enter into a new lease, containing all of the terms and provisions of this Lease, with such new owner for the remainder of the term hereof, or, at the election of such new owner, this Lease shall automatically become a new Lease between Lessee and such new owner, upon all of the terms and conditions hereof, for the remainder of the term hereof, and (ii) Lessor shall thereafter be relieved of any further obligations hereunder and such new owner shall assume all of Lessor’s obligations hereunder, except that such new owner shall not: (a) be liable for any act or omission of any prior lessor or with respect to events occurring prior to acquisition of ownership; (b) be subject to any offsets or defenses which Lessee might have against any prior lessor, (c) be bound by prepayment of more than one month’s rent, or (d) be liable for the return of any security deposit paid to any prior lessor.
     30.3 Non-Disturbance. With respect to Security Devices entered into by Lessor after the execution of this Lease, Lessee’s subordination of this Lease shall be subject to receiving a commercially reasonable non-disturbance agreement (a “Non-Disturbance Agreement”) from the Lender which Non-Disturbance Agreement provides that Lessee’s possession of the Premises, and this Lease, including any options to extend the term hereof, will not be disturbed so long as Lessee is not in Breach hereof and attorns to the record owner of the Premises. Further, within 60 days after the execution of this Lease, Lessor shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a Non-Disturbance Agreement from the holder of any pre-existing Security Device which is secured by the Premises. In the event that Lessor is unable to provide the Non-Disturbance Agreement within said 60 days, then Lessee may, at Lessee’s option, directly contact Lender and attempt to negotiate for the execution and delivery of a Non-Disturbance Agreement.
     30.4 Self-Executing. The agreements contained in this Paragraph 30 shall be effective without the execution of any further documents; provided, however, that, upon written request from Lessor or a Lender in connection with a sale, financing or refinancing of the Premises, Lessee and Lessor shall execute such further writings as may be reasonably required to separately document any subordination, attornment and/or Non-Disturbance Agreement provided for herein.
31. Attorneys’ Fees. If any Party or Broker brings an action or proceeding involving the Premises whether founded in tort, contract or equity, or to declare rights hereunder, the Prevailing Party (as hereafter defined) in any such proceeding, action, or appeal thereon, shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys’ fees. Such fees may be awarded in the same suit or recovered in a separate suit, whether or not such action or proceeding is pursued to decision or judgment. The term, "Prevailing Party” shall include, without limitation, a Party or Broker who substantially obtains or defeats the relief sought, as the case may be, whether by compromise, settlement, judgment, or the abandonment by the other Party or Broker of its claim or defense. The attorneys’ fees award shall not be computed in accordance with any court fee schedule, but shall be such as to fully reimburse all attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred. In addition, Lessor shall be entitled to attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses incurred in the preparation and service of notices of Default and consultations in connection therewith, whether or not a legal action is subsequently commenced in connection with such Default or resulting Breach ($200 is a reasonable minimum per occurrence for such services and consultation).
32. Lessor’s Access; Showing Premises; Repairs. Lessor and Lessor’s agents shall have the right to enter the Premises at any time, in the case of an emergency, and otherwise at reasonable times after reasonable prior notice for the purpose of showing the same to prospective purchasers, lenders, or tenants, and making such alterations, repairs, improvements or additions to the Premises as Lessor may deem necessary or desirable and the erecting, using and maintaining of utilities, services, pipes and conduits through the Premises and/or other premises as long as there is no material adverse effect to Lessee’s use of the Premises. All such activities shall be without abatement of rent or liability to Lessee.

33. Auctions. Lessee shall not conduct, nor permit to be conducted, any auction upon the Premises without Lessor’s prior written consent. Lessor shall not be obligated to exercise any standard of reasonableness in determining whether to permit an auction.
34. Signs. Lessor may place on the Premises ordinary “For Sale” signs at any time and ordinary “For Lease” signs during the last 6 months of the term hereof. Except for ordinary “for sublease” signs, Lessee shall not place any sign upon the Premises without Lessor’s prior written consent. All signs must comply with all Applicable Requirements.
35. Termination; Merger. Unless specifically stated otherwise in writing by Lessor, the voluntary or other surrender of this Lease by Lessee, the mutual termination or cancellation hereof, or a termination hereof by Lessor for Breach by Lessee, shall automatically terminate any sublease or lesser estate in the Premises; provided, however, that Lessor may elect to continue any one or all existing subtenancies. Lessor’s failure within 10 days following any such event to elect to the contrary by written notice to the holder of any such lesser interest, shall constitute Lessor’s election to have such event constitute the termination of such interest.
36. Consents. Except as otherwise provided herein, wherever in this Lease the consent of a Party is required to an act by or for the other Party, such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Lessor’s actual reasonable costs and expenses (including but not limited to architects’, attorneys’, engineers’ and other consultants’ fees) incurred in the consideration of, or response to, a request by Lessee for any Lessor consent, including but not limited to consents to an assignment, a subletting or the presence or use of a Hazardous Substance, shall be paid by Lessee upon receipt of an invoice and supporting documentation therefor. Lessor’s consent to any act, assignment or subletting shall not constitute an acknowledgment that no Default or Breach by Lessee of this Lease exists, nor shall such consent be deemed a waiver of any then existing Default or Breach, except as may be otherwise specifically stated in writing by Lessor at the time of such consent. The failure to specify herein any particular condition to Lessor’s consent shall not preclude the imposition by Lessor at the time of consent of such further or other conditions as are then reasonable with reference to the particular matter for which consent is being given. In the event that either Party disagrees with any determination made by the other hereunder and reasonably requests the reasons for such determination, the determining party shall furnish its reasons in writing and in reasonable detail within 10 business days following such request.
37. Guarantor.
     37.1 Execution. The Guarantors, if any, shall each execute a guaranty in the form most recently published by the AIR Commercial Real Estate Association, and each such Guarantor shall have the same obligations as Lessee under this Lease.
     37.2 Default. It shall constitute a Default of the Lessee if any Guarantor fails or refuses, upon request to provide: (a) evidence of the execution of the guaranty, including the authority of the party signing on Guarantor’s behalf to obligate Guarantor, and in the case of a corporate Guarantor, a certified copy of a resolution of its board of directors authorizing the making of such guaranty, (b) current financial statements, (c) an Estoppel Certificate, or (d) written confirmation that the guaranty is still in effect.
38. Quiet Possession. Subject to payment by Lessee of the Rent and performance of all of the covenants, conditions and provisions on Lessee’s part to be observed and performed under this Lease, Lessee shall have quiet possession and quiet enjoyment of the Premises during the term hereof.
39. Options. If Lessee is granted an Option, as defined below, then the following provisions shall apply:
     39.1 Definition. “Option” shall mean: (a) the right to extend the term of or renew this Lease or to extend or renew any lease that Lessee has on other property of Lessor; (b) the right of first refusal or first offer to lease either the Premises or other property of Lessor; (c) the right to purchase or the right of first refusal to purchase the Premises or other property of Lessor.
     39.2 Options Personal To Original Lessee. Any Option granted to Lessee in this Lease is personal to the original Lessee, and cannot be assigned or exercised by anyone other than said original Lessee and only while the original Lessee is in full possession of the Premises and, if requested by Lessor, with Lessee certifying that Lessee has no intention of thereafter assigning or subletting.
     39.3 Multiple Options. In the event that Lessee has any multiple Options to extend or renew this Lease, a later Option cannot be exercised unless the prior Options have been validly exercised.
     39.4 Effect of Default on Options.
          (a) Lessee shall have no right to exercise an Option: (i) during the period commencing with the giving of any notice of Default and continuing until said Default is cured, (ii) during the period of time any Rent is unpaid (without regard to whether notice thereof is given Lessee), (iii) during the time Lessee is in Breach of this Lease, or (iv) in the event that Lessee has been given 3 or

more notices of separate Default, whether or not the Defaults are cured, during the 12 month period immediately preceding the exercise of the Option.
          (b) The period of time within which an Option may be exercised shall not be extended or enlarged by reason of Lessee’s inability to exercise an Option because of the provisions of Paragraph 39.4(a).
          (c) An Option shall terminate and be of no further force or effect, notwithstanding Lessee’s due and timely exercise of the Option, if, after such exercise and prior to the commencement of the extended term or completion of the purchase, (i) Lessee fails to pay Rent for a period of 30 days after such Rent becomes due (without any necessity of Lessor to give notice thereof), or (ii) if Lessee commits a Breach of this Lease.
40. Multiple Buildings. If the Premises are a part of a group of buildings controlled by Lessor, Lessee agrees that it will abide by and conform to all reasonable rules and regulations which Lessor may make from time to time for the management, safety, and care of said properties, including the care and cleanliness of the grounds and including the parking, loading and unloading of vehicles, and to cause its employees, suppliers, shippers, customers, contractors and invitees to so abide and conform. Lessee also agrees to pay its fair share of common expenses incurred in connection with such rules and regulations.
41. Security Measures. Lessee hereby acknowledges that the Rent payable to Lessor hereunder does not include the cost of guard service or other security measures, and that Lessor shall have no obligation whatsoever to provide same. Lessee assumes all responsibility for the protection of the Premises, Lessee, its agents and invitees and their property from the acts of third parties.
42. Reservations. Lessor reserves to itself the right, from time to time, to grant, without the consent or joinder of Lessee, such easements, rights and dedications that Lessor deems necessary, and to cause the recordation of parcel maps and restrictions, so long as such easements, rights, dedications, maps and restrictions do not unreasonably interfere with the use of the Premises by Lessee. Lessee agrees to sign any documents reasonably requested by Lessor to effectuate any such easement rights, dedication, map or restrictions.
43. Performance Under Protest. If at any time a dispute shall arise as to any amount or sum of money to be paid by one Party to the other under the provisions hereof, the Party against whom the obligation to pay the money is asserted shall have the right to make payment “under protest” and such payment shall not be regarded as a voluntary payment and there shall survive the right on the part of said Party to institute suit for recovery of such sum. If it shall be adjudged that there was no legal obligation on the part of said Party to pay such sum or any part thereof, said Party shall be entitled to recover such sum or so much thereof as it was not legally required to pay.
44. Authority; Multiple Parties; Execution.
          (a) If either Party hereto is a corporation, trust, limited liability company, partnership, or similar entity, each individual executing this Lease on behalf of such entity represents and warrants that he or she is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Lease on its behalf. Each party shall, within 30 days after request, deliver to the other party satisfactory evidence of such authority.
          (b) If this Lease is executed by more than one person or entity as “Lessee”, each such person or entity shall be jointly and severally liable hereunder. It is agreed that any one of the named Lessees shall be empowered to execute any amendment to this Lease, or other document ancillary thereto and bind all of the named Lessees, and Lessor may rely on the same as if all of the named Lessees had executed such document.
          (c) This Lease may be executed by the Parties in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
45. Conflict. Any conflict between the printed provisions of this Lease and typewritten or handwritten provisions shall be controlled by the typewritten or handwritten provisions.
46. Offer. Preparation of this Lease by either Party or their agent and submission of same to the other Party shall not be deemed an offer to lease to the other Party. This Lease is not intended to be binding until executed and delivered by all Parties hereto.
47. Amendments. This Lease may be modified only in writing, signed by the Parties in interest at the time of the modification. As long as they do not materially change Lessee’s obligations hereunder, Lessee agrees to make such reasonable non-monetary modifications to this Lease as may be reasonably required by a Lender in connection with the obtaining of normal financing or refinancing of the Premises.
48. Waiver of Jury Trial. THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING INVOLVING THE PROPERTY OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT.

49. Mediation and Arbitration of Disputes. An Addendum requiring the Mediation and/or the Arbitration of all disputes between the Parties and/or Brokers arising out of this Lease ois þis not attached to this Lease.
50. Americans with Disabilities Act. Since compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is dependent upon Lessee’s specific use of the Premises, Lessor makes no warranty or representation as to whether or not the Premises comply with ADA or any similar legislation. In the event that Lessee’s use of the Premises requires modifications or additions to the Premises in order to be in ADA compliance, Lessee agrees to make any such necessary modifications and/or additions at Lessee’s expense.
LESSOR AND LESSEE HAVE CAREFULLY READ AND REVIEWED THIS LEASE AND EACH TERM AND PROVISION CONTAINED HEREIN, AND BY THE EXECUTION OF THIS LEASE SHOW THEIR INFORMED AND VOLUNTARY CONSENT THERETO.

opinion, Lender’s interests in the Collateral are not jeopardized. Lender may require Borrower to post adequate security or a surety bond, reasonably satisfactory to Lender, to protect Lender’s interest.
Inspection. Permit employees or agents of Lender at any reasonable time to inspect any and all Collateral for the Loan or Loans and Borrower’s other properties and to examine or audit Borrower’s books, accounts, and records and to make copies and memoranda of Borrower’s books, accounts, and records.

Make, execute and deliver to Lender such promissory notes, mortgages, deeds of trust, security agreements, assignments, financing statements, instruments, documents and other agreements as Lender or its attorneys may reasonably request to evidence and secure the Loans and to perfect all Security Interests.
LENDER’S EXPENDITURES. If any action or proceeding is commenced that would materially affect Lender’s interest in the Collateral or if Borrower fails to comply with any provision of this Agreement or any Related Documents, including but not limited to Borrower’s failure to discharge or pay when due any amounts Borrower is required to discharge or pay under this Agreement or any Related Documents, Lender on Borrower’s behalf may (but shall not be obligated to) take any action that Lender deems appropriate, including but not limited to discharging or paying all taxes, liens, security interests, encumbrances and other claims, at any time levied or placed on any Collateral and paying all costs for insuring, maintaining and preserving any Collateral. All such expenditures incurred or paid by Lender for such purposes will then bear interest at the rate charged under the Note from the date incurred or paid by Lender to the date of repayment by Borrower. All such expenses will become a part of the indebtedness and, at Lender’s option, will (A) be payable on demand; (B) be added to the balance of the Note and be apportioned among and be payable with any installment payments to become due during either (1) the term of any applicable insurance policy; or (2) the remaining term of the Note; or (C) be treated as a balloon payment which will be due and payable at the Note’s maturity.
NEGATIVE COVENANTS. Borrower covenants and agrees with Lender that while this Agreement is in effect, Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of Lender:

DEFAULT. Each of the following shall constitute an Event of Default under this Agreement:
Payment Default. Borrower fails to make any payment when due under the Loan.
Other Defaults. Borrower fails to comply with or to perform any other term, obligation, covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or in any of the Related Documents or to comply with or to perform any term, obligation, covenant or condition contained in any other agreement between Lender and Borrower.
Default in Favor of Third Parties. Borrower or any Grantor defaults under any loan, extension of credit, security agreement, purchase or sales agreement, or any other agreement, in favor of any other creditor or person that may materially affect any of Borrower’s or any Grantor’s property or Borrower’s or any Grantor’s ability to repay the Loans or perform their respective obligations under this Agreement or any of the Related Documents.
False Statements. Any warranty, representation or statement made or furnished to Lender by Borrower or on Borrower’s behalf under this Agreement or the Related Documents is false or misleading in any material respect, either now or at the time made or furnished or becomes false or misleading at any time thereafter.
Insolvency. The dissolution or termination of Borrower’s existence as a going business, the insolvency of Borrower, the appointment of a receiver for any part of Borrower’s property, any assignment for the benefit of creditors, any type of creditor workout, or the commencement of any proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws by or against Borrower.
Defective Collateralization. This Agreement or any of the Related Documents ceases to be in full force and effect (including failure of any collateral document to create a valid and perfected security interest or lien) at any time and for any reason.
Creditor or Forfeiture Proceedings. Commencement of foreclosure or forfeiture proceedings, whether by judicial proceeding, self help, repossession or any other method, by any creditor of Borrower or by any governmental agency against any collateral securing the Loan. This includes a garnishment of any of Borrower’s accounts, including deposit accounts, with Lender. However, this Event of Default shall not apply if there is a good faith dispute by Borrower as to the validity or reasonableness of the claim which is the basis of the creditor or forfeiture proceeding and if Borrower gives Lender written notice of the creditor or forfeiture proceeding and deposits with Lender monies or a surety bond for the creditor or forfeiture proceeding, in an amount determined by Lender, in its sole discretion, as being an adequate reserve or bond for the dispute.
Events Affecting Guarantor. Any of the preceding events occurs with respect to any Guarantor of any of the Indebtedness or any Guarantor dies or becomes incompetent, or revokes or disputes the validity of, or liability under, any Guaranty of the Indebtedness. In the event of a death, Lender, at its option, may, but shall not be required to, permit the Guarantor’s estate to assume unconditionally the obligations arising under the guaranty in a manner satisfactory to Lender, and, in doing so, cure any Event of Default.

Right to Cure. If any default, other than a default on Indebtedness, is curable and if Borrower or Grantor, as the case may be, has not been given a notice of a similar default within the preceding twelve (12) months, it may be cured if Borrower or Grantor, as the case may be, after receiving written notice from Lender demanding cure of such default: (1) cure the default within fifteen (15) days; or (2) if the cure requires more than fifteen (15) days, immediately initiate steps which Lender deems in Lender’s sole discretion to be sufficient to cure the default and thereafter continue and complete all reasonable and necessary steps sufficient to produce compliance as soon as reasonably practical.
EFFECT OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT. If any Event of Default shall occur, except where otherwise provided in this Agreement or the Related Documents, all commitments and obligations of Lender under this Agreement or the Related Documents or any other agreement immediately will terminate (including any obligation to make further Loan Advances or disbursements), and, at Lender’s option, all Indebtedness immediately will become due and payable, all without notice of any kind to Borrower, except that in the case of an Event of Default of the type described in the “Insolvency” subsection above, such acceleration shall be automatic and not optional. In addition, Lender shall have all the rights and remedies provided in the Related Documents or available at law, in equity, or otherwise. Except as may be prohibited by applicable law, all of Lender’s rights and remedies shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly or concurrently. Election by Lender to pursue any remedy shall not exclude pursuit of any other remedy, and an election to make expenditures or to take action to perform an obligation of Borrower or of any Grantor shall not affect Lender’s right to declare a default and to exercise its rights and remedies.

Consent to Loan Participation. Borrower agrees and consents to Lender’s sale or transfer, whether now or later, of one or more participation interests in the Loan to one or more purchasers, whether related or unrelated to Lender. Lender may provide, without any limitation whatsoever, to any one or more purchasers, or potential purchasers, any information or knowledge Lender may have about Borrower or about any other matter relating to the Loan, and Borrower hereby waives any rights to privacy Borrower may have with respect to such matters. Borrower additionally waives any and all notices of sale of participation interests, as well as all notices of any repurchase of such participation interests. Borrower also agrees that the purchasers of any such participation interests will be considered as the absolute owners of such interests in the Loan and will have all the rights granted under the participation agreement or agreements governing the sale of such participation interests.

No Waiver by Lender. Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights under this Agreement unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by Lender. No delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver by Lender of a provision of this Agreement shall not prejudice or constitute a waiver of Lender’s right otherwise to demand strict compliance with that provision or any other provision of this Agreement. No prior waiver by Lender, nor any course of dealing between Lender and Borrower, or between Lender and any Grantor, shall constitute a waiver of any of Lender’s rights or of any of Borrower’s or any Grantor’s obligations as to any future transactions. Whenever the consent of Lender is required under this Agreement, the granting of such consent by Lender in any instance shall not constitute continuing consent to subsequent instances where such consent is required and in all cases such consent may be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of Lender.

Any notice required to be given under this Agreement shall be given in writing, and shall be effective when actually delivered, when actually received by telefacsimile (unless otherwise required by law), when deposited with a nationally recognized overnight courier, or, if mailed, when deposited in the United States mail, as first class, certified or registered mail postage prepaid, directed to the addresses shown near the beginning of this Agreement. Any party may change its address for notices under this Agreement by giving formal written notice to the other parties, specifying that the purpose of the notice is to change the party’s address. For notice purposes, Borrower agrees to keep Lender informed at all times of Borrower’s current address. Unless otherwise provided or required by law, if there is more than one Borrower, any notice given by Lender to any Borrower is deemed to be notice given to all Borrowers.
Severability. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of this Agreement to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable as to any circumstance, that finding shall not make the offending provision illegal, invalid or unenforceable as to any other circumstance. If feasible, the offending provision shall be considered modified so that it becomes legal, valid and enforceable. If the offending provision cannot be so modified, it shall be considered deleted from this Agreement.

To the extent the context of any provisions of this Agreement makes it appropriate, including without limitation any representation, warranty or covenant, the word “Borrower” as used in this Agreement shall include all of Borrower’s subsidiaries and affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing however, under no circumstances shall this Agreement be construed to require Lender to make any Loan or other financial recommendation to any of Borrower’s subsidiaries or affiliates.
Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements by or on behalf of Borrower contained in this Agreement or any Related Documents shall bind Borrower’s successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of Lender and its successors and assigns.

    CHANGE IN TERMS AGREEMENT    
    (Continued)    
Loan No.: 9329000055-1       Page 2
payment date, beginning July 31, 2005, with all subsequent interest payments to be due on the last day of each month after that. Unless otherwise agreed or required by applicable law, payments will be applied first to any accrued unpaid interest; then to principal; then to any unpaid collection costs; and then to any late charges. Interest on this Agreement is computed on a 365/360 simple interest basis; that is, by applying the ratio of the annual interest rate over a year of 360 days, multiplied by the outstanding principal balance, multiplied by the actual number of days the principal balance is outstanding. Borrower will pay Lender at Lender’s address shown above or at such other place as Lender may designate in writing.
VARIABLE INTEREST RATE. Subject to designation of a different interest rate index by Borrower as provided below, the interest rate on this Agreement is subject to change from time to time based on changes in an index which is the rate of interest set from time to time by Bank as its Prime Rate. California Bank & Trust Prime Rate is determined by Bank as a means of pricing credit extensions to some customers and is neither tied to any external rate of interest or index nor is it necessarily the lowest rate of interest charged by Bank at any given time for any particular class of customers or credit extensions (the “Index”). The Index is not necessarily the lowest rate charged by Lender on its loans and is set by Lender in its sole discretion. If the Index becomes unavailable during the term of this loan, Lender may designate a substitute index after notifying Borrower. Lender will tell Borrower the current Index rate upon Borrower’s request. The interest rate change will not occur more often than each Day. Borrower understands that Lender may make loans based on other rates as well. The Index currently is 6.000% per annum. The interest rate to be applied to the unpaid principal balance of the Note will be at a rate equal to the Index, resulting in an initial rate of 6.000% per annum. NOTICE: Under no circumstances will the interest rate on the Note be more than the maximum rate allowed by applicable law.
INTEREST RATE OPTIONS. On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, Borrower will be able to select, from one of the following Rate Options, an interest rate which will be applicable to a particular dollar increment of amounts outstanding, or to be disbursed, under this Agreement. Principal shall be payable as specified herein in the “Payment” section, and interest shall be payable as specified for each Rate Option. The following Rate Options are available to Borrower:
(A) Default Option. The interest rate margin and index described in the “VARIABLE INTEREST RATE” paragraph herein (the “Default Option”).
(B) LIBOR. A margin of 2.500 percentage points over LIBOR. For purposes of this Agreement, LIBOR shall mean Lender’s LIBOR rate for the relevant Interest Period determined as of the start of each Interest Period. The length of the Interest Period selected shall be designated One Month, Two Months, Three Months or Four Months, though the actual length of such periods shall be calculated as set forth below. The initial Interest Period, unless commenced on the first business day of a month, shall, notwithstanding the length of the Interest Period selected by Borrower, (i) for Interest Periods beginning before the 25th of each calendar month, end on the first business day of the month following commencement of the initial Interest Period, and (ii) for Interest Periods beginning on or after the 25th of each calendar month, end of the first business day of the second month following commencement of the Initial Interest Period. All subsequent Interest Periods shall commence on the first business day of the relevant month and end on the first business day of the month determined by the length of the Interest Period selected by Borrower. The Bank’s calculation pursuant to the provision of the length of the Interest Periods shall be in its sole and absolute discretion and shall conclusively bind the Borrower absent manifest error. Lender’s LIBOR rate shall mean the rate per annum quoted by Lender as Lender’s LIBOR rate based upon quotes from the London Interbank Offered Rate from the British Bankers Association Interest Settlement Rates, as quoted for U.S. Dollars by Bloomberg, or other comparable services selected by the Lender. This definition of Lender’s LIBOR rate is to be strictly interpreted and is not intended to serve any purpose other than providing an index to determine the interest rate used herein. Lender’s LIBOR rate may not necessarily be the same as the quoted offered side in the Eurodollar time deposit market by any particular institution or service applicable to any interest period. Interest based on this Rate Option is a floating rate and will change on and as of the date of a change in LIBOR (the “Interest Period”). Adjustments in the interest rate due to changes in the maximum nonusurious interest rate allowed (the “Highest Lawful Rate”) shall be made on the effective day of any change in the payment of all accrued and unpaid interest on the last day of such Interest Period and, in the case of an Interest Period greater than three (3) months, at three month (3 month) intervals after the first day of such Interest Period.
The following provisions concerning Rate Options are a part of this Agreement:
Selection of Rate Options. Provided Borrower is not in default under this Agreement, Borrower may request (a “Rate Request”) that a $100,000.00 increment or any amount in excess thereof (an “Increment”) of the outstanding principal of, or amounts to be disbursed under, this Agreement bear interest at the selected rate. Borrower may make this Rate Request by telephonic notice, however no later than 10:00 AM PDT three (3) business days prior to the effective date of the Rate Request to permit Lender to quote the rate requested.

 


 

    CHANGE IN TERMS AGREEMENT    
    (Continued)    
Loan No.: 9329000055-1       Page 3
Applicable Interest Rate. Borrower’s Rate Request will become effective, and interest on the increment designated will be calculated at the rate (the “Effective Rate”), which Borrower requested, for the applicable Interest Period, subject to the following:
(1) Notwithstanding any Rate Request, interest shall be calculated on the basis of the Default Option if (a) Lender, in good faith, is unable to ascertain the requested Rate Option by reason of circumstances then affecting the applicable money market or otherwise, (b) it become unlawful or impracticable for Lender to maintain loans based upon the requested Rate Option, or (c) Lender, in good faith, determines that it is impracticable to maintain loans based on the requested Rate Option because of increased taxes, regulatory costs, reserve requirements, expenses or any other costs or charges that affect such Rate Options. Upon the occurrence of any of the events described in this “Interest Rate Options” section, any increment to which a requested Rate Option applies shall be immediately (or at the option of Lender, at the end of the current Interest Period), without further action of Lender or Borrower, converted to an increment to which the Default Option applies.
(2) Borrower may have no more than a total of 2 Effective Rates applicable to amounts outstanding under this Agreement at any given time.
(3) A Rate Request shall be effective as to amounts to be disbursed under this Agreement only if, on the effective date of the Rate Requests, such amounts are in fact disbursed to or for Borrower’s account in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and any related loan documents.
(4) Any amounts of outstanding principal for which a Rate Request has not been made, or is otherwise not effective, shall bear interest until paid in full at the Default Option.
(5) Any amounts of outstanding principal bearing interest based upon a Rate Option shall bear interest at such rate until the end of the Interest Period therefor, and thereafter shall bear interest based upon the Default Option unless a new Rate Request for a Rate Option complying with the terms hereof has been made and has become effective.
(6) If Borrower is in default under this Agreement (“Default”), the Lender shall no longer be obligated to honor any Rate Requests.
(7) No Interest Period shall extend beyond the maturity date of this Agreement.
Notices: Authority to Act. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the agreement of Lender herein to receive certain notices by telephone is solely for Borrower’s convenience. Lender shall be entitled to rely on the authority of the person purporting to be a person authorized by Borrower to give such notice, and Lender shall have no liability to Borrower on account of any action taken by Lender in reliance upon such telephonic notice. Borrower’s obligation to repay all sums owing under the Note shall not be affected in any way or to any extent by any failure by Lender to receive written confirmation of any telephonic notice or the receipt by Lender of a confirmation which is at variance with the terms understood by Lender to be contained in the telephonic notice.
PREPAYMENT; MINIMUM INTEREST CHARGE. In any event, even upon full prepayment of this Agreement, Borrower understands that Lender is entitled to a minimum interest charge of $200.00. Other than Borrower’s obligation to pay any minimum interest charge, Borrower may pay without penalty all or a portion of the amount owed earlier than it is due. Early payments will not, unless agreed to by Lender in writing, relieve Borrower of Borrower’s obligation to continue to make payments of accrued unpaid interest. Rather, early payments will reduce the principal balance due. Borrower agrees not to send Lender payments marked “paid in full,” “without recourse,” or similar language. If Borrower sends such a payment, Lender may accept it without losing any of Lender’s rights under this Agreement, and Borrower will remain obligated to pay any further amount owed to Lender. All written communications concerning disputed amounts, including any check or other payment instrument that indicates that the payment constitutes “payment in full” of the amount owed or that is tendered with other conditions or limitations or as full satisfaction of a disputed amount must be mailed or delivered to: California Bank & Trust, Los Angeles Commercial Banking, 550 South Hope Street, Suite 300, Los Angeles, CA 90071.
LATE CHARGE. If a payment is 15 days or more late, Borrower will be charged 6.000% of the regularly scheduled payment or $500.00, whichever is less.

False Statements.

This includes a garnishment of any of Borrower’s accounts, including deposit accounts, with Lender. However, this Event of Default shall not apply if there is a good faith dispute by Borrower as to the validity or reasonableness of the claim which is the basis of the creditor or forfeiture proceeding and if Borrower gives Lender written notice of the creditor or forfeiture proceeding and deposits with Lender monies or a surety bond for the creditor or forfeiture proceeding, in an amount determined by Lender, in its sole discretion, as being an adequate reserve or bond for the dispute.

Adverse Change. A material adverse change occurs in Borrower’s financial condition, or Lender believes the prospect of payment or performance of the Indebtedness is impaired.

Cure Provisions. If any default, other than a default in payment is curable and if Borrower has not been given a notice of a breach of the same provision of this Agreement within the preceding twelve (12) months, it may be cured if Borrower, after receiving written notice from Lender demanding cure of such default: (1) cures the default within fifteen (15) days; or (2) if the cure requires more than fifteen (15) days, immediately initiates steps which Lender deems in Lender’s sole discretion to be sufficient to cure the default and thereafter continues and completes all reasonable and necessary steps sufficient to produce compliance as soon as reasonably practical.
LENDER’S RIGHTS. Upon default, Lender may declare the entire unpaid principal balance of this Agreement and all accrued unpaid interest immediately due, and then Borrower will pay that amount.

SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Subject to any limitations stated in this Agreement on transfer of Borrower’s interest, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors and assigns. If ownership of the Collateral becomes vested in a person other than Borrower, Lender, without notice to Borrower, may deal with Borrower’s successors with reference to this Agreement and the Indebtedness by way of forbearance of extension without releasing Borrower from the obligations of this Agreement or liability under the Indebtedness.

Borrower and any other person who signs, guarantees or endorses this Agreement, to the extent allowed by law, waive any applicable statute of limitations, presentment, demand for payment, and notice of dishonor. Upon any change in the terms of this Agreement, and unless otherwise expressly stated in writing, no party who signs this Agreement, whether as maker, guarantor, accommodation maker or endorser, shall be released from liability. All such parties agree that Lender may renew or extend (repeatedly and for any length of time) this loan or release any party or guarantor or collateral; or impair, fail to realize upon or perfect Lender’s security interest in the collateral; and take any other action deemed necessary by Lender without the consent of or notice to anyone. All such parties also agree that Lender may modify this loan without the consent of or notice to anyone other than the party with whom the modification is made. The obligations under this Agreement are joint and several.
PRIOR TO SIGNING THIS AGREEMENT, BORROWER READ AND UNDERSTOOD ALL THE PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING THE VARIABLE INTEREST RATE PROVISIONS. BORROWER AGREES TO THE TERMS OF THE AGREEMENT.

F-3 Contract Type
A fixed price Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ) is the contract type effective for the effective period of performance of this contract. Performance shall be made only as authorized by Delivery Orders issued in accordance with the ordering clause of this contract.
Each Delivery Order will contain, among other information, the date of the order, the order number, the exact quantity of units to be delivered, delivery or performance date, place of delivery, any special shipping instructions, pricing, and accounting and appropriation data. The unit price of each Delivery Order will be determined by the ordering period and the number of units ordered in accordance with Section B of the contract. Individual orders will be issued using the single price for the increment that corresponds to the total quantity being purchased on that order for the year in which the order is placed. Quantities are not cumulative from order to order. The unit price of each order is determined by the total quantity for that order only, regardless of the previous number of orders issued or the total of previous quantities ordered. Delivery of units under a specific Delivery Order shall not be combined with delivery of units under another Delivery Order. Delivery Orders will incorporate all clauses of the contract.
F-4 Production Item Rate of Delivery (CLINs 0001, 0002, and 0003)
The Government reserves the right to require a rate of up to, but not exceeding 45 air vehicles, 15 GCS and 15 Field Support Kits every thirty (30) calendar days beginning one hundred and twenty (120) days after issuance of the first Delivery Order for these items.
Deliveries under subsequent Delivery Orders shall begin within ninety (90) calendar days after the scheduled completion of the previous Delivery Order unless the subsequent order is issued more than ninety (90) calendar days before the scheduled completion date of the previous order. In such case deliveries under the subsequent order shall begin within (30) calendar days after the scheduled completion date of the previous order. When subsequent Delivery Orders are issued after the scheduled completion date of deliveries under the previous order, deliveries shall begin within ninety (90) calendar days after issuance of the new order. The rate of delivery in all cases shall be no more than 45 air vehicles, 15 GCS and 15 Field Support Kits every thirty (30) calendar days. For any order quantity of less than 45 air vehicles, 15 GCS and 15 Field Support Kits, delivery shall be for the specified quantity in accordance with the schedule.

(1) Discussing with an agency the qualities and characteristics (including individual demonstrations) of the person’s products or services, conditions or terms of sale, and service capabilities.
(2) Technical discussions and other activities regarding the application or adaptation of the person’s products or services for an agency’s use.
(D) The following agency and legislative liaison activities are permitted where they are prior to formal solicitation of any covered Federal action—
(1) Providing any information not specifically requested but necessary for an agency to make an informed decision about initiation of a covered Federal action;
(2) Technical discussions regarding the preparation of an unsolicited proposal prior to its official submission; and
(3) Capability presentations by persons seeking awards from an agency pursuant to the provisions of the Small Business Act, as amended by Pub. L. 95-507, and subsequent amendments.
(E) Only those services expressly authorized by subdivision (b)(3)(i)(A) of this clause are permitted under this clause.
(ii) Professional and technical services.
(A) The prohibition on the use of appropriated funds, in subparagraph (b)(1) of this clause, does not apply in the case of—
(1) A payment of reasonable compensation made to an officer or employee of a person requesting or receiving a covered Federal action or an extension, continuation, renewal, amendment, or modification of a covered Federal action, if payment is for professional or technical services rendered directly in the preparation, submission, or negotiation of any bid, proposal, or application for that Federal action or for meeting requirements imposed by or pursuant to law as a condition for receiving that Federal action.
(2) Any reasonable payment to a person, other than an officer or employee of a person requesting or receiving a covered Federal action or an extension, continuation, renewal, amendment, or modification of a covered Federal action if the payment is for professional or technical services rendered directly in the preparation, submission, or negotiation of any bid, proposal, or application for that Federal action or for meeting requirements imposed by or pursuant to law as a condition for receiving that Federal action. Persons other than officers or employees of a person requesting or receiving a covered Federal action include consultants and trade associations.
(B) For purposes of subdivision (b)(3)(ii)(A) of this clause, “professional and technical services” shall be limited to advice and analysis directly applying any professional or technical discipline.

I-7


 

     
Interim Small Unit Remot Scouting System
  Contract No.: M67854-04-D1011
MARCORSYSCOM
   
analysis is rendered directly and solely in the preparation, submission or negotiation of a covered Federal action. Thus, for example, communications with the intent to influence made by a lawyer that do not provide legal advice or analysis directly and solely related to the legal aspects of his or her client’s proposal, but generally advocate one proposal over another are not allowable under this section because the lawyer is not providing professional legal services. Similarly, communications with the intent to influence made by an engineer providing an engineering analysis prior to the preparation or submission of a bid or proposal are not allowable under this section since the engineer is providing technical services but not directly in the preparation,, submission or negotiation of a covered Federal action.
(C) Requirements imposed by or pursuant to law as a condition for receiving a covered Federal award include those required by law or regulation and any other requirements in the actual award documents.
(D) Only those services expressly authorized by subdivisions (b)(3)(ii)(A)(1) and (2) of this clause are permitted under this clause.
(E) The reporting requirements of FAR 3.803(a) shall not apply with respect to payments of reasonable compensation made to regularly employed officers or employees of a person.
(c) Disclosure.
(1) The Contractor who requests or receives from an agency a Federal contract shall file with that agency a disclosure form, OMB standard form LLL, Disclosure of Lobbying Activities, if such person has made or has agreed to make any payment using nonappropriated funds (to include profits from any covered Federal action), which would be prohibited under subparagraph (b)(1) of this clause, if paid for with appropriated funds.
(2) The Contractor shall file a disclosure form at the end of each calendar quarter in which there occurs any event that materially affects the accuracy of the information contained in any disclosure form previously filed by such person under subparagraph (c)(1) of this clause. An event that materially affects the accuracy of the information reported includes—
(i) A cumulative increase of $25,000 or more in the amount paid or expected to be paid for influencing or attempting to influence a covered Federal action; or
(ii) A change in the person(s) or individual(s) influencing or attempting to influence a covered Federal action; or
(iii) A change in the officer(s), employee(s), or Member(s) contacted to influence or attempt to influence a covered Federal action.

(4) All subcontractor disclosure forms (but not certifications) shall be forwarded from tier to tier until received by the prime Contractor. The prime Contractor shall submit all disclosures to the Contracting Officer at the end of the calendar quarter in which the disclosure form is submitted by the subcontractor. Each subcontractor certification shall be retained in the subcontract file of the awarding Contractor.
(d) Agreement. The Contractor agrees not to make any payment prohibited by this clause.
(e) Penalties.

(1) Any person who makes an expenditure prohibited under paragraph (a) of this clause or who fails to file or amend the disclosure form to be filed or amended by paragraph (b) of this clause shall be subject to civil penalties as provided for by 31 U.S.C. 1352. An imposition of a civil penalty does not prevent the Government from seeking any other remedy that may be applicable.
(2) Contractors may rely without liability on the representation made by their subcontractors in the certification and disclosure form.
(f) Cost allowability. Nothing in this clause makes allowable or reasonable any costs which would otherwise be unallowable or unreasonable. Conversely, costs made specifically unallowable by the requirements in this clause will not be made allowable under any other provision.
1-5 FAR 52.216-18 ORDERING (OCT 1995)

1.0 SCOPE
1.1 Program Background.
1.1.1 Overview.
This Statement of Work (SOW) defines the effort required for the production of Dragon Eye (DE) unmanned air vehicles (UAVs), Ground Control Station (GCS) and Field Support Kit. The document also includes planning for technical support and contractor logistics support of the fielded systems. (See Section 3.0 for details regarding technical and logistics support.)
1.1.2 System Description.
The following is a definition of “one” ISURSS as it is known today. In accordance with the government’s evolutionary acquisition strategy, the USMC expects the definition to change as the system evolves and matures. The definition is for informational purposes only. An ISURSS consists of:
    three (3) Dragon Eye air vehicles, each with an interchangeable payload nose containing a color daylight imager and an interchangeable payload nose containing a monochrome low light imager and three (3) Modular Lightweight Load-Carrying (MOLLE) vest-compatible backpack storage containers (for carrying the previous items);
 
    one (1) Ground Control Station (GCS) with a laptop computer, communications control box, cables, two bungee launchers and one (1) Field Support Kit .
1.1.3 Acquisition Strategy.
The Interim Small Unit Remote Scouting System (ISURSS) is an evolutionary acquisition program that provides Marine Corps small unit maneuver and support Commanders with real-time tactical and reconnaissance/surveillance information. The DE UAV was selected as the vehicle to meet the operational requirements of the ISURSS air vehicle. ISURSS will transition into SURSS consistent with the program’s evolutionary acquisition strategy. The SURSS ORD describes time-phased requirements that incrementally incorporate block upgrades for improved performance of the system every two years. Each block upgrade (an increment in capability) will have its own levels of required capabilities established by the Fleet. Block changes to the baseline DE system design will be made through the Engineering Change Proposal (ECP) process. The Government will approve ECPs for block upgrades in performance or logistics supportability. The ECP process will be driven by the maturation of technologies and the evolving needs of the owning units.

Contractor initiated Engineering Change Proposals (ECPs), Value Engineering Change Proposals (VECPs), Request for Deviations (RFDS), and Request for Waivers (REWs), collectively referred to as “proposals”, shall be prepared, submitted and distributed in accordance with paragraphs 2, 3 and 4 below except as specified in paragraph 5 below.
2. Format.
     a. Class 1 ECPs require the “Long Form Procedure” for documenting the change and describing the effects of the change on the suitability and supportability of the Configuration Item (CI). Class I ECPs should be limited to those that are necessary or offer significant benefit to the Government. Class I ECPs are those that affect the performance, reliability, maintainability, survivability, weight, balance, moment of inertia, interface characteristics, electromagnetic characteristics, or other technical requirements in the specifications and drawings. Class I ECPs also include those changes that affect Government Furnished Equipment, safety, compatibility, retrofit, operation and maintenance manuals, interchangeability, substitutability, replaceability, source control specifications and drawings, costs, guarantees or warranties, deliveries, or schedules. Class II ECPs are those that do not affect form, fit and function, cost, or schedule of the system CI and do not meet the other criteria described above for Class I ECPs.
     b. Long Form Procedure, Class I changes to the CI require that AMSAM-RD Form 523, pages 1 through 7 (as applicable), be prepared. Use of this procedure assures that all effects of the change on the CI are properly addressed and documented to the necessary detail to allow proper evaluation of the proposed change.
     c. Short Form Procedure, ECPs and VECPs , which meet the requirements of Class II ECPs, shall be prepared using AMSAM-RD Form 523 (page 1 only). Supplemental pages may be used with the form as necessary. The responsible Contract Management Office (CMO) will enter the appropriate data in Block 5 “Class of ECP”, Block 6 “Justification Codes”, and Block 7 “Priority.”
     d. The Contractor shall not manufacture items for acceptance by the Government that incorporate a known departure from requirements, unless the Government has approved a RFD. RFDs shall be prepared using AMSAM-RD Form 527 or AMSRD-AMR Form 530 (Type I, see block 5 on the form).
     e. The Contractor shall not submit items for acceptance by the Government that include a known departure from the requirements, unless the Government has approved a RFW. RFWs shall be prepared using AMSAM-RD Form 527) or AMSRD-AMR Form 530 (Type II, see block 5 on the form).
     f. Each ECP, RFD or RFW shall be accompanied by a written and signed evaluation prepared by the responsible Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) technical representative. The DCMA written evaluation shall be considered part of the ECP/RFD/RFW proposal.
     g. Classification of RFDs/RFWs.
          (1) Major RFDs/RFWs. RFDs/RFWs written against CIs shall be designated as major when the RFD/RFW consists of acceptance of an item having a nonconformance with contract or configuration documentation involving health; performance; interchangeability; reliability; survivability; maintainability; effective use or operation; weight; appearance (when a factor); or when there is a departure from a requirement classified as major in the contractual documentation.
          (2) Critical RFDs/RFWs. RFDs/RFWs written against CIs shall be designated as critical when the RFD/RFW consists of acceptance of an item having a nonconformance with contract or configuration documentation involving safety or when there is a departure from a requirement classified as critical in the contractual documentation.
          (3) Minor RFDs/RFWs. RFDs/RFWs written against CIs shall be designated as minor when the RFD/RFW consists of acceptance of an item having a nonconformance with contract or configuration documentation which does not involve any of the factors listed above in paragraphs g(1) or (2), or when there is a departure from a requirement classified as minor in the contractual documentation.
     h. Proposals shall include sufficient technical data to describe all changes from existing contract requirements.
     i. Proposals shall include sufficient justification for making the change, including a statement of contract impact, if the change is not authorized.
     j. Proposals for ECPs shall set forth a “not to exceed” price and delivery adjustment acceptable to the Contractor if the Government subsequently approves the proposal. If approved, the equitable increase shall not exceed this amount.
     k. Times allowed for technical decisions for ECP and RFD/RFW proposals will be worked out via mutual agreement between the Contractor and the Government.

The contractor shall provide support for the SUAV System Program in support of deployments, contingencies and exercises in CONUS and OCONUS locations. Support shall be provided during deployment, during in-theater of operations, and during redeployment from areas of operation, contingencies, and exercises.
2.0 — Obligation
The contractor’s obligation in providing contractor support in a deployment situation is limited to providing its reasonable best efforts to provide personnel to deploy with a military unit in a deployment situation that could involve hostilities. The contractor’s subsequent inability to provide personnel is an excusable delay and the contract cannot be terminated for default as a result thereof.
No change in the scope or within the scope of this contract, which would effect a change in any term or provision of this contract shall be made except by official contract modification executed by the Contracting Officer. The contractor shall ensure that all contractor personnel are knowledgeable and cognizant of this contract clause. Changes to contract effort accepted and performed by contractor personnel outside of the scope of this contract without specific authorization of the contracting officer shall be the responsibility of the contractor.
The contracting officer may change the priorities of the contractor’s activities within the terms and conditions of the contract.
The contractor is responsible for supervision and direction of all contractor personnel and for on-site liaison with functional U.S. organizations. The contractor and its personnel shall not supervise or be supervised by government personnel.
The regional combatant commander (previously referred to as the commander in chief [CINC]) is responsible for accomplishing the mission and ensuring the safety of all deployed military, government civilians, and contractor employees in support of US military operations.
When US citizen contractor employees are involved in supporting an operation, they must be accounted for in the similar manner as military and DAC personnel.

In the absence of any host-nation involvement, the commander may utilize the Military Extraterritorial Jurisdiction Act (Public Law 106-523) of 2000.
5.0.3 The contractor shall take reasonable steps to ensure the professional conduct of its personnel and subcontractors.
5.0.4 The contractor shall promptly resolve, to the satisfaction of the Contracting Officer, all contractor personnel performance and conduct problems identified by the cognizant Contracting Officer or his/her designated representative.
5.0.5 The Contracting Officer may direct the contractor, at the contractor’s expense, to remove or replace any contractor personnel failing to adhere to instructions and general orders issued by the Theater Commander or his/her designated representative.
5.0.6 The Contracting Officer, the Contracting Officer’s technical representative, and the Contracting Officer’s representatives are the U.S. Government (“Government”) officials responsible for administering the contractor’s performance. All questions regarding authorized direction should be brought to the attention of one of these Government officials.
5.1 — Accounting for Personnel
5.1.1 As directed by the Contracting Officer or his/her representative and based on instructions of the Theater Commander, the contractor shall report its personnel, including third country nationals, entering and/or leaving the area of operations by name, citizenship, location, Social Security number (SSN) or other official identity document number.
5.1.2 Contractor personnel shall be assigned to the Logistics Support Element for administrative and personnel reporting purposes and shall comply with the reporting instructions of the Logistics Support Element commander.
5.2 — Risk Assessment and Mitigation

*** END OF NARRATIVE H 002 ***
H-9 Information and/or material identified ‘For Official Use Only’ (FOUO) shall be protected and handled in accordance with the following:
     a. DEFINITION. Information that has not been given a security classification pursuant to the criteria an Executive Order, but which may be withheld from the public for one or more reasons cited in Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) Exemptions 2 through 9 shall be considered as being For Official Use Only. No other material shall be considered or marked ‘For Official Use Only’ (FOUO). FOUO is not authorized as a form of classification to protect national security interests.
     b. SAFEGUARDING FOUO INFORMATION.
          (1) During Duty Hours: During normal working hours information determined to be FOUO shall be placed in an out-of-sight location if visitors, casual traffic and other nongovernment/noncontractor personnel have access to the work area.
          (2) During Nonduty Hours: At the close of business, FOUO records shall be stored so as to preclude unauthorized access. Filing such material with other unclassified records in unlocked files or desks, etc., is adequate when normal U.S. Government or government/contractor internal building security is provided during nonduty hours. When such internal security control is not exercised, locked buildings or rooms normally provide adequate after-hours protection. If such protection is not considered adequate, FOUO material shall be stored in locked receptacles such as file cabinets, desks or bookcases.
     c. TRANSMISSION OF FOUO INFORMATION. FOUO information will be transported in a manner that precludes disclosure of its contents. When not commingled with classified information, FOUO information may be sent via first-class mail or parcel post. Bulky shipments that otherwise qualify under postal regulations may be sent fourth-class mail. Transmittal documents will call attention to the presence of FOUO attachments.
     d. TERMINATION, DISPOSAL AND UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURES.
          (1) Termination: The originator or other competent authority, e.g., initial denial and appellate authorities, shall terminate ‘For Official Use Only’ markings or status when circumstances indicate that the information no longer requires protection from public disclosure. When FOUO status is terminated, all known holders shall be notified, to the extent practical. Upon notification, holders shall efface or remove the ‘For Official Use Only’ markings, but records in file or storage need not be retrieved solely for that purpose.
          (2) Disposal: FOUO materials may be destroyed by tearing each copy into pieces to preclude reconstruction, and placing them in regular trash containers. When local circumstances or experience indicates that this destruction method is not sufficiently protective of FOUO information, local authorities may direct other methods but must give due consideration to the additional expense balanced against the degree of sensitivity of the type of FOUO information contained in the records.
          (3) Unauthorized Disclosure: The unauthorized disclosure of FOUO information does not constitute an unauthorized disclosure of DOD information classified for security purposes. Appropriate administrative action should be taken, however, to fix responsibility for unauthorized disclosure whenever feasible, and appropriate disciplinary action should be taken against those responsible. The DOD component that originated the FOUO information shall be informed of its unauthorized disclosure.

(b) Notice. The primary purpose of this clause is to obtain prompt reporting of Government conduct that the Contractor considers to constitute a change to this contract. Except for changes identified as such in writing and signed by the Contracting Officer, the Contractor shall notify the Administrative Contracting Officer in writing, within seven (7) calendar days from the date that the Contractor identifies any Government conduct (including actions, inactions, and written or oral communications) that the Contractor regards as a change to the contract terms and conditions. On the basis of the most accurate information available to the Contractor, the notice shall state—
(1) The date, nature, and circumstances of the conduct regarded as a change;
(2) The name, function, and activity of each Government individual and Contractor official or employee invoked in or knowledgeable about such conduct;
(3) The identification of any documents and the substance of any oral communication involved in such conduct;
(4) In the instance of alleged acceleration of scheduled performance or delivery, the basis upon which it arose;
(5) The particular elements of contract performance for which the Contractor may seek an equitable adjustment under this clause, including—
(i) What contract line items have been or may be affected by the alleged change;
(ii) What labor or materials or both have been or may be added, deleted, or wasted by the alleged change;
(iii) To the extent practicable, what delay and disruption in the manner and sequence of performance and effect on continued performance have been or may be caused by the alleged change;
(iv) What adjustments to contract price, delivery schedule, and other provisions affected by the alleged change are estimated; and
(6) The Contractor’s estimate of the time by which the Government must respond to the Contractor’s notice to minimize cost, delay or disruption of performance.
(c) Continued performance. Following submission of the notice required by (b) above, the Contractor shall diligently continue performance of this contract to the maximum extent possible in accordance with its terms and conditions as construed by the Contractor, unless the notice reports a direction of the Contracting Officer or a communication from a SAR of the Contracting Officer, in either of which events the Contractor shall continue performance; provided, however, that if the Contractor regards the direction or communication as a change as described in (b) above, notice shall he given in the manner provided. All directions, communications, interpretations, orders and similar actions of the SAR shall be reduced to writing and copies furnished to the Contractor and to the Contracting Officer. The Contracting Officer shall countermand any action which exceeds the authority of the SAR.

(d) Government response. The Contracting Officer shall promptly, within fourteen (14) calendar days after receipt of notice, respond to the notice in writing. In responding, the Contracting Officer shall either—
(1) Confirm that the conduct of which the Contractor gave notice constitutes a change and when necessary direct the mode of further performance;
(2) Countermand any communication regarded as a change;
(3) Deny that the conduct of which the Contractor gave notice constitutes a change and when necessary direct the mode of further performance; or
(4) In the event the Contractor’s notice information is inadequate to make a decision under (1), (2), or (3) above, advise the Contractor what additional information is required, and establish the date by which it should be furnished and the date thereafter by which the Government will respond.
(e) Equitable adjustments.
(1) If the Contracting Officer confirms that Government conduct effected a change as alleged by the Contractor, and the conduct causes an increase or decrease in the Contractor’s cost of, or the time required for, performance of any part of the work under this contract, whether changed or not changed by such conduct, an equitable adjustment shall be made—
(i) In the contract price or delivery schedule or both; and
(ii) In such other provisions of the contract as may be affected.
(2) The contract shall be modified in writing accordingly. In the case of drawings, designs or specifications which are defective and for which the Government is responsible, the equitable adjustment shall include the cost and time extension for delay reasonably incurred by the Contractor in attempting to comply with the defective drawings, designs or specifications before the Contractor identified, or reasonably should have identified, such defect. When the cost of property made obsolete or excess as a result of a change confirmed by the Contracting Officer under this clause is included in the equitable adjustment, the Contracting Officer shall have the right to prescribe the manner of disposition of the property. The equitable adjustment shall not include increased costs or time extensions for delay resulting from the Contractor’s failure to provide notice or to continue performance as provided, respectively, in (b) and (c) above.
Note: The phrases “contract price” and “cost” wherever they appear in the clause, may be appropriately modified to apply to cost-reimbursement or incentive contracts, or to combinations thereof.

52.248-1 VALUE ENGINEERING (FEB 2000)
(a) General. The Contractor is encouraged to develop, prepare, and submit value engineering change proposals (VECP’s) voluntarily. The Contractor shall share in any net acquisition savings realized from accepted VECP’s, in accordance with the incentive sharing rates in paragraph (f) below.

 


 

W911QY-04-D-0034
Page 144 of 150
(b) Definitions. “Acquisition sayings,” as used in this clause, means savings resulting from the application of a VECP to contracts awarded by the same contracting office or its successor for essentially the same unit. Acquisition savings include—
(1) instant contract savings, which are the net cost reductions on this, the instant contract and which are equal to the instant unit cost reduction multiplied by the number of instant contract units affected by the VECP, less the Contractor’s allowable development and implementation costs.
(2) Concurrent contract savings, which are net reductions in the prices of other contracts that are definitized and ongoing at the time the VECP is accepted; and
(3) Future contract savings, which are the product of the future unit cost reduction multiplied by the number of future contract units in the sharing base. On an instant contract, future contract savings include savings on increases in quantities after VECP acceptance that are due to contract modifications, exercise of options, additional orders, and funding of subsequent year requirements on a multiyear contract.
“Collateral costs,” as used in this clause, means agency cost of operation, maintenance, logistic support, or Government-furnished property.
“Collateral savings,” as used in this clause, means those measurable net reductions resulting from a VECP in the agency’s overall projected collateral costs, exclusive of acquisition savings, whether or not the acquisition cost changes.
“Contracting office” includes any contracting office that the acquisition is transferred to, such as another branch of the agency or another agency’s office that is performing a joint acquisition action.
“Contractor’s development and implementation costs” as used in this clause, means those costs the Contractor incurs on a VECP specifically in developing, testing, preparing, and submitting the VECP, as well as those costs the Contractor incurs to make the contractual changes required by Government acceptance of a VECP.
“Future unit cost reduction,” as used in this clause, means the instant unit cost reduction adjusted as the Contracting Officer considers necessary for projected learning or changes in quantity during the sharing period. It is calculated at the time the VECP is accepted and applies either (1) throughout the sharing period, unless the Contracting Officer decides that recalculation is necessary because conditions are significantly different from those previously anticipated or (2) to the calculation of a lump-sum payment, which cannot later be revised.
“Government costs,” as used in this clause, means those agency costs that result directly from developing and implementing the VECP, such as any net increases in the cost of testing, operations, maintenance, and logistics support. The term does not include the normal administrative costs of processing the VECP or any increase in this contract’s cost or price resulting from negative instant contract savings.
“Instant contract,” as used in this clause, means this contract, under which the VECP is submitted. It does not include increases in quantities after acceptance of the VECP that are due to contract modifications, exercise of options or additional orders. If this is a multiyear contract, the term does not include quantities funded after VECP acceptance. If this contract is a fixed-price contract with prospective price redetermination, the term refers to the period for which firm prices have been established.
“Instant unit cost reduction” means the amount of the decrease in unit cost of performance (without deducting any Contractor’s development or implementation costs) resulting from using the VECP on this, the instant contract. If this is a service contract, the instant unit cost reduction is normally equal to the number of hours per line-item task saved by using the VECP on this contract, multiplied by the appropriate contract labor rate.

 


 

W911QY-04-D-0034
Page 145 of 150
“Negative instant contract savings” means the increase in the cost or price of this contract when the acceptance of a VECP results in an excess of the Contractor’s allowable development and implementation costs over the product of the instant unit cost reduction multiplied by the number of instant contract units affected.
“Net acquisition savings, means total acquisition savings, including instant, concurrent, and future contract savings, less Government Costs.
“Sharing base,” as used in this clause, means the number of affected end items on contracts of the contracting office accepting the VECP.
Sharing period, as used in this clause, means the period beginning with acceptance of the first unit incorporating the VECP and ending at a calendar date or event determined by the contracting officer for each VECP.
“Unit,” as used in this clause, means the item or task to which the Contracting Officer and the Contractor agree the VECP applies.
“Value engineering change proposal (VECP)” means a proposal that—
(1) Requires a change to this, the instant contract, to implement, and
(2) Results in reducing the overall projected cost to the agency without impairing essential functions or characteristics; provided, that it does not involve a change—
(i) In deliverable end item quantities only:
(ii) In research and development (R&D) end items or R&D test quantities that is due solely to results of previous testing under this contract or
(iii) To the contract type only.
(c) VECP preparation. As a minimum, the Contractor shall include in each VECP the information described in subparagraphs (1) through (8) below. If the proposed change is affected by contractually required configuration management or similar procedures, the instructions in those procedures relating to format, identification, and priority assignment shall govern VECP preparation. The VECP shall include the following:
(1) A description of the difference between the existing contract requirement and the proposed requirement, the comparative advantages and disadvantages of each, a justification when an item’s function or characteristics are being altered, the effect of the change on the end item’s performance, and any pertinent objective test data.
(2) A list and analysis of the contract requirements that must be changed if the VECP is accepted, including any suggested specification revisions.
(3) Identification of the unit to which tile VECP applies.
(4) A separate, detailed cost estimate for (i) the affected portions of the existing contract requirement and (ii) the VECP. The cost reduction associated with the VECP shall take into account the Contractor’s allowable development and implementation costs, including any amount attributable to subcontracts under the Subcontracts paragraph of this clause, below.
(5) A description and estimate of costs the Government may incur in implementing the VECP, such as test and evaluation and operating and support costs.
(6) A prediction of any effects the proposed change would have on collateral costs to the agency.

 


 

W911QY-04-D-0034
Page 146 of 150
(7) A statement of the time by which a contract modification accepting the VECP must be issued in order to achieve the maximum cost reduction, noting any effect on the contract completion time or delivery schedule.
(8) Identification of any previous submissions of the VECP, including the dates submitted, the agencies and contract numbers involved and previous Government actions, if known.
(d) Submission. The Contractor shall submit VECP’s to the Contracting Officer, unless this contract states otherwise. If this contract is administered by other than the contracting office, the Contractor shall submit a copy of the VECP simultaneously to the Contracting Officer and to the Administrative Contracting Officer.
(e) Government action. (1) The Contracting Officer will notify the Contractor of the status of the VECP within 45 calendar days after the contracting office receives it. If additional time is required, the Contracting Officer will notify the Contractor within the 45-day period and provide the reason for the delay and the expected date of the decision. The Government will process VECP’s expeditiously; however, it shall not be liable for any delay in acting upon a VECP.
(2) If the VECP is not accepted, the Contracting Officer will notify the Contractor in writing, explaining the reasons for rejection. The Contractor may withdraw any VECP, in whole or in part, at any time before it is accepted by the Government. The Contracting Officer may require that the Contractor provide written notification before undertaking significant expenditures for VECP effort.
(3) Any VECP may be accepted, in whole or in part, by the Contracting Officer’s award of a modification to this contract citing this clause and made either before or within a reasonable time after contract performance is completed. Until such a contract modification applies a VECP to this contract, the Contractor shall perform in accordance with the existing contract. The decision to accept or reject all or part of any VECP is a unilateral decision made solely at the discretion of the Contracting Officer.
(f) Sharing rates. If a VECP is accepted, the Contractor shall share in net acquisition savings according to the percentages shown in the table below. The percentage paid the Contractor depends upon (1) this contract’s type (fixed-price, incentive, or cost-reimbursement), (2) the sharing arrangement specified in paragraph (a) above (incentive, program requirement, or a combination as delineated in the Schedule), and (3) the source of the savings (the instant contract, or concurrent and future contracts), as follows:

(1)   The Contracting Officer may increase the Contractor’s sharing rate to as high as 75 percent for each VECP.
 
(2)   Same sharing arrangement as the contract’s profit or fee adjustment formula.
 
(3)   The Contracting Officer may increase the Contractor’s sharing rate to as high as 50 percent for each VECP.
(g) Calculating net acquisition savings.
(1) Acquisition savings are realized when (i) the cost or price is reduced on the instant contract, (ii) reductions are negotiated in concurrent contracts, (iii) future contracts are awarded, or (iv) agreement is reached on a lump-sum payment for future contract savings (see subparagraph (i)(4) below). Net acquisition savings are first realized, and the Contractor shall be paid a share, when Government costs and any negative instant contract savings have been fully offset against acquisition savings.
(2) Except in incentive contracts, Government costs and any price or cost increases resulting from negative instant contract savings shall be offset against acquisition savings each time such savings are realized until they are fully offset. Then, the Contractor’s share is calculated by multiplying net acquisition savings by the appropriate Contractor’s percentage sharing rate (see paragraph (f) above). Additional Contractor shares of net acquisition savings shall be paid to the Contractor at the time realized.
(3) If this is an incentive contract, recovery of Government costs on the instant contract shall be deferred and offset against concurrent and future contract savings. The Contractor shall share through the contract incentive structure in savings on the instant contract items affected. Any negative instant contract savings shall be added to the target cost or to the target price and ceiling price, and the amount shall be offset against concurrent and future contract savings.
(4) If the Government does not receive and accept all items on which it paid the Contractor’s share, the Contractor shall reimburse the Government for the proportionate share of these payments.
(h) Contract adjustment. The modification accepting the VECP (or a subsequent modification issued as soon as possible after any negotiations are completed) shall—
(1) Reduce the contract price or estimated cost by the amount of instant contract savings, unless this is an incentive contract;
(2) When the amount of instant contract savings is negative, increase the contract price target price and ceiling price, target cost, or estimated cost by than amount;
(3) Specify the Contractor’s dollar share per unit on future contracts, or provide the lump-sum payment:
(4) Specify the amount of any Government costs or negative instant contract savings to be offset in determining net acquisition savings realized from concurrent or future contract savings; and
(5) Provide the Contractor’s share of any net acquisition savings under the instant contract in accordance with the following:
(i) Fixed-price contracts—add to contract price.

 


 

W911QY-04-D-0034
Page 148 of 150
(ii) Cost-reimbursement contracts—add to contract fee.
(i) Concurrent and future contract savings.
(1) Payments of the Contractor’s share of concurrent and future contract savings shall he made by a modification to the instant contract in accordance with subparagraph (h)(5) above. For incentive contracts, shares shall be added as a separate firm-fixed-price line item on the instant contract. The Contractor shall maintain records adequate to identify the first delivered unit for 3 years after final payment under this contract.
(2) The Contracting Officer shall calculate the Contractor’s share of concurrent contract savings by (i) subtracting from the reduction in price negotiated on the concurrent contract any Government costs or negative instant contract savings not yet offset and (ii) multiplying the result by the Contractor’s sharing rate.
(3) The Contracting Officer shall calculate the Contractor’s share of future contract savings by (i) multiplying the future unit cost reduction by the number of future contract units scheduled for delivery during the sharing period, (ii) subtracting any Government costs or negative instant contract savings not yet offset, and (iii) multiplying the result by the Contractor’s sharing rate.
(4) When the Government wishes and the Contractor agrees, the Contractor’s share of future contract savings may be paid in a single lump sum rather than in a series of payments over time as future contracts are awarded. Under this alternate procedure, the future contract savings may be calculated when the VECP is accepted, on the basis of the Contracting Officer’s forecast of the number of units that will be delivered during the sharing period. The Contractor’s share shall be included in a modification to this contract (see subparagraph (h)(3) above) and shall not be subject to subsequent adjustment.
(5) Alternate no-cost settlement method. When, in accordance with subsection 48.104-4 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation, the Government and the Contractor mutually agree to use the no-cost settlement method, the following applies:
(i) The Contractor will keep all the savings on the instant contract and on its concurrent contracts only.
(ii) The Government will keep all the savings resulting from concurrent contracts placed on other sources, savings from all future contracts, and all collateral savings.
(j) Collateral savings. If a VECP is accepted, the Contracting Officer will increase the instant contract amount, as specified in paragraph (h)(5) of this clause, by a rate from 20 to 100 percent, as determined by the Contracting Officer, of any projected collateral savings determined to be realized in a typical year of use after subtracting any Government costs not previously offset. However, the Contractor’s share of collateral savings will not exceed the contract’s firm-fixed-price, target price, target cost, or estimated cost, at the time the VECP is accepted, or $100,000, whichever is greater. The Contracting Officer will be the sole determiner of the amount of collateral savings.
(k) Relationship to other incentives. Only those benefits of an accepted VECP not rewardable under performance, design-to-cost (production unit cost, operating and support costs, reliability and maintainability), or similar incentives shall be rewarded under this clause. However, the targets of such incentives affected by the VECP shall not be adjusted because of VECP acceptance. If this contract specifies targets but provides no incentive to surpass them, the value engineering sharing shall apply only to the amount of achievement better than target.
(l) Subcontracts. The Contractor shall include an appropriate value engineering clause in any subcontract of $100,000 or more and may include one in subcontracts of lesser value. In calculating any adjustment in this contract’s price for instant contract savings (or negative instant contract savings), the Contractor’s allowable development and implementation costs shall include any subcontractor’s allowable development and implementation costs, and any value engineering incentive payments to a subcontractor, clearly resulting from a VECP accepted by the Government under this contract. The Contractor may choose any arrangement for

 


 

W911QY-04-D-0034
Page 149 of 150
subcontractor value engineering incentive payments; provided, that the payments shall not reduce the Government’s share of concurrent or future contract savings or collateral savings.
(m) Data. The Contractor may restrict the Government’s right to use any part or a VECP or the supporting data by marking the following legend on the affected parts:
“These data, furnished under the Value Engineering clause of contract . . . . . . . . . . , shall not be disclosed outside the Government or duplicated, used or disclosed, in whole or in part, for any purpose other than to evaluate a value engineering change proposal submitted under the clause. This restriction does not limit the Government’s right to use the information contained in these data if it has been obtained or is otherwise available from the Contractor or from another source without limitations.”
If a VECP is accepted, the Contractor hereby grants the Government unlimited rights in the VECP and supporting data, except that, with respect to data qualifying and submitted as limited rights technical data, the Government shall have the rights specified in the contract modification implementing the VECP and shall appropriately mark the data. (The terms “unlimited rights” and “limited rights” are defined in Part 27 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation.)

     (2) The Contractor grants the Contracting Officer or an authorized representative the right to examine, at any time before award, books, records, documents, or other directly pertinent records to verify any request for an exception under this clause, and the reasonableness of price. For items priced using catalog or market prices, or law or regulation, access does not extend to cost or profit information or other data relevant solely to the contractor’s determination of the prices to be offered in the catalog or marketplace.
(b) Requirements for cost or pricing data. If the Contractor is not granted an exception from the requirement to submit cost or pricing data, the following applies:
     (1) The Contractor shall submit cost or pricing data and supporting attachments in accordance with Table 15-2 of FAB 15.408.
     (2) As soon as practicable after agreement on price, but before award (except for unpriced actions), the Contractor shall submit a Certificate of Current Cost or Pricing Data, as prescribed by FAB 15.406-2.
