Accuray Incorporated

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

 

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Description of Business

 

Accuray Incorporated (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company” or “Accuray”) is incorporated in Delaware. The Company designs, develops and sells advanced radiosurgery and radiation therapy systems for the treatment of tumors throughout the body. The Company conducts its business worldwide. The Company has its headquarters in Sunnyvale, California, with additional locations worldwide.

 

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries and a variable interest entity, Compact Particle Acceleration Corporation (“CPAC”) until its deconsolidation on December 21, 2012 (for further information, see Note 9). All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and note disclosures have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the periods presented. The results for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending June 30, 2014, for any other interim period or for any future year.

 

These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended June 30, 2013 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC. The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to those audited consolidated financial statements.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists. ASU No. 2013-11 requires that entities with an unrecognized tax benefit and a net operating loss carryforward or similar tax loss or tax credit carryforward in the same jurisdiction as the uncertain tax position present the unrecognized tax benefit as a reduction of the deferred tax asset for the loss or tax credit carryforward rather than as a liability, when the uncertain tax position would reduce the loss or tax credit carryforward under the tax law, thereby eliminating diversity in practice regarding this presentation issue. This new guidance is effective prospectively for annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2013, although retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this guidance, if any, on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-05, Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830): Parent’s Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity. This new standard is intended to resolve diversity in practice regarding the release into net income of a cumulative translation adjustment upon derecognition of a subsidiary or group of assets within a foreign entity. ASU No. 2013-05 is effective prospectively for fiscal years (and interim reporting periods within those years) beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company is currently reviewing this standard, but it does not anticipate that its adoption will have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures at the date of the financial statements. Key estimates and assumptions made by the Company relate to revenue recognition, the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations, asset impairments, inventories, share-based compensation expense, income taxes, loss contingencies and corporate bonus expenses. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

 

Concentration of Credit and Other Risks

 

The Company’s cash, cash equivalents and investments are deposited with several major financial institutions. At times, deposits in these institutions exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes that it is not exposed to any significant risk on these balances.

Table of Contents

 

For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, there were no customers that represented 10% or more of total net revenue. At March 31, 2014, one customer accounted for 15% of the Company’s total accounts receivable. At June 30, 2013, one customer accounted for 10% of accounts receivable.

 

Accounts receivable are typically not collateralized. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains reserves for potential credit losses. Accounts receivable are deemed past due in accordance with the contractual terms of the agreement. Accounts are charged against the allowance for doubtful accounts once collection efforts are unsuccessful.

 

Single source suppliers presently provide the Company with several components. In most cases, if a supplier was unable to deliver these components, the Company believes that it would be able to find other sources for these components subject to any regulatory qualifications, if required.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company earns revenue from the sale of products, the provision of related services, which include post-contract customer support (“PCS”), installation services, training and other professional services, and the operation of its shared ownership program. The Company records its revenues net of any value added or sales tax. For arrangements with multiple elements, the Company allocates arrangement fees to product and services based upon Vendor Specific Objective Evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value of the respective elements, Third-Party Evidence (“TPE”), or Best Estimate of Selling Price (“BESP”), using the relative selling price method.

 

Product and Service Revenue

 

The majority of product revenue is generated from sales of CyberKnife and TomoTherapy systems. If the Company is responsible for installation, the Company recognizes revenue after installation and acceptance of the system. Otherwise, revenue is recognized upon delivery, assuming all other revenue recognition criteria are met.

 

The Company could sell its systems with PCS contracts, installation services, training, and professional services. PCS contracts provide planned and corrective maintenance services, software updates, bug fixes, as well as call-center support. Service revenue is generated primarily from PCS (warranty period services and post warranty services), installation services, training, and professional services. PCS revenue is deferred and recognized over the service period. Installation service revenue is recognized concurrent with system revenue. Training and professional service revenues that are not deemed essential to the functionality of the systems are recognized as such services are performed.

 

Costs associated with service revenue are expensed when incurred, except when those costs are related to system upgrades where revenue recognition has been deferred. In those cases, the costs are deferred and are recognized over the period of revenue recognition.

 

Shared Ownership Program

 

The Company also enters into arrangements under its shared ownership program with certain customers. These arrangements typically have a term of five years and provide the customer an option to purchase the system during the contractual term at pre-determined prices. Under the terms of this program, the Company retains title to its system, while the customer has use of the system. The Company generally receives a minimum monthly payment and earns additional revenues from the customer based upon its use of the system which are included in product revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

 

Net Loss Per Common Share

 

Basic and diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

The potentially dilutive shares of the Company’s common stock resulting from the assumed exercise of outstanding stock options, the vesting of Restricted Stock Units (RSUs), Market Stock Units (MSUs) and Performance-based Stock Units (PSUs), and the purchase of shares under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP), as determined under the treasury stock method, are excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. The 3.75% Convertible Senior Notes due August 1, 2016 (the “3.75% Convertible Notes”) and the 3.50% Convertible Senior Notes due February 1, 2018 (the “3.50% Convertible Notes”) are included in the calculation of diluted net income per share only if their inclusion is dilutive. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the potentially dilutive shares under the Convertible Notes were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

In connection with the acquisition of TomoTherapy in fiscal year 2011, the Company recognized liabilities related to unrecognized tax benefits as part of purchase accounting. During its first quarter of fiscal year 2014, the Company determined that certain of these liabilities related to unrecognized tax benefits were recorded in error. The Company evaluated the effects of this error on the financial statements and concluded that the error was not material to any prior annual or interim periods or the current period. In September of 2013, the Company reduced goodwill and accrued liabilities by $1.3 million to remove the liability recorded in error.

 

In the second quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company performed its annual goodwill impairment test. Based on this analysis, the Company determined that there was no impairment to goodwill. The Company will continue to monitor its recorded goodwill for indicators of impairment.

4. Financial Instruments

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments held at major banks, certificates of deposit and other securities with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

The Company classifies all of its investments as available-for-sale at the time of purchase because it is management’s intent that these investments are available for current operations and includes these investments on its balance sheets as short-term investments. Investments with original maturities longer than three months include commercial paper and investment-grade corporate debt securities. Investments classified as available-for-sale are recorded at fair market value with the related unrealized gains and losses included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a component of stockholders’ equity. Realized gains and losses are recorded based on specific identification of each security’s cost basis.

 

10



Table of Contents

 

The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy contains three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value, as follows:

 

Level 1— Unadjusted quoted prices that are available in active markets for the identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.

 

Level 2— Other observable inputs available at the measurement date, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, either directly or indirectly, including:

 

·                  Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;

·                  Quoted prices for identical or similar assets in non-active markets;

·                  Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and

·                  Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by other observable market data.

 

Level 3— Unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data and reflect the use of significant management judgment. These values are generally determined using pricing models for which the assumptions utilize management’s estimates of market participant assumptions.

 

The following tables summarize the amortized cost, gross unrealized gains, gross unrealized losses and fair value by significant investment category for cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments (in thousands):

The Company’s Level 2 investments in the table above are classified as Level 2 items because quoted prices in an active market are not readily accessible for those specific financial assets, or the Company may have relied on alternative pricing methods that do not rely exclusively on quoted prices to determine the fair value of the investments.

 

The Company had investments that were in an unrealized loss position as of March 31, 2014. The Company determined that (i) it does not have the intent to sell any of these investments and (ii) it is not likely that it will be required to sell any of these investments before recovery of the entire amortized cost basis. The Company reviews its investments to identify and evaluate investments that have an indication of possible impairment. As of March 31, 2014, the Company anticipates that it will recover the entire carrying value of such investments and has determined that no other-than-temporary impairments associated with credit losses were required to be recognized during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014.

5. Commitments and Contingencies

 

The Company’s contractual obligations were presented in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the previous annual reporting period ended June 30, 2013. There have been no material changes outside of the ordinary course of business in those obligations during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014.

 

Litigation

 

From time to time, the Company is involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of its business. Currently, management believes the Company does not have any probable and estimable losses related to any current legal proceedings and claims that would individually or in the aggregate materially adversely affect its financial condition or operating results. For certain legal proceedings, management believes that there is a reasonable possibility that losses may be incurred. Management currently estimates a range of loss (in excess of amounts accrued) between zero and $2 million in the aggregate for such legal proceedings, where it is possible to make such estimates. Litigation is inherently unpredictable and is subject to significant uncertainties, some of which are beyond the Company’s control. Should any of these estimates and assumptions change or prove to have been incorrect, the Company could incur significant charges related to legal matters that could have a material impact on its results of operations, financial position and cash flows.

 

Best Medical Trade Secret Litigation

 

On September 3, 2009, Best Medical International, Inc., or Best Medical, filed a lawsuit against the Company in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania, claiming that the Company induced certain individuals to leave the employment of Best Medical and join the Company in order to gain access to Best Medical’s confidential information and trade secrets. Best Medical is seeking monetary damages and other relief. On October 25, 2011, the court presiding over the case granted summary judgment in favor of the Company on all counts. On November 21, 2011, Best Medical filed a notice of appeal. On December 22, 2011, the court awarded attorney fees and costs to the Company and ordered the Company to file an accounting of its fees and costs. Following the filing of the accounting of the Company’s fees and costs, the magistrate judge presiding over the case issued a report on the Company’s accounting and recommended an award to the Company in the amount of $512,090 in attorney fees and costs, which was adopted in its entirety by the District Court on September 27, 2013. On July 3, 2013, the Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit issued a briefing schedule for the appeal of this case. Best Medical’s brief was filed on September 16, 2013 and the Company’s brief was filed on December 30, 2013.  Best Medical filed its reply brief on January 10, 2014.  Briefing is now closed on this appeal.  Best Medical has filed a second notice of appeal of the District Court’s orders relating to the fee amount.  A briefing schedule has not yet been set for this second appeal.

Best Medical Patent Litigation

 

On August 6, 2010, Best Medical filed an additional lawsuit against the Company in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania, claiming that the Company has infringed U.S. Patent No. 5,596,619, a patent that Best Medical alleges protects a method and apparatus for conformal radiation therapy. In December 2010, Best Medical amended its complaint by claiming that the Company also infringed U.S. Patent Nos. 6,038,283 and 7,266,175, both of which Best Medical alleges cover methods and apparatus for conformal radiation therapy. In March 2011, the court dismissed with prejudice all counts against the Company, except for two counts of alleged willful infringement of two of the patents. Following several procedural rulings by the court, Best Medical moved to voluntarily dismiss one of the two remaining patent claims on June 28, 2011, which the court granted on June 30, 2011, leaving only one patent (U.S. Patent No. 6,038,283) at issue in the case. The parties failed to a reach settlement during mandatory settlement conferences held in March 2013, May 2013 and April 2014. Best Medical is seeking declaratory and injunctive relief, as well as unspecified compensatory and treble damages and other relief. The Company will continue to litigate this case, and depositions of the parties’ fact witness are expected to be completed in May 2014.

 

Rotary Systems

 

On April 28, 2011, a former supplier to TomoTherapy, Rotary Systems Incorporated, filed suit in Minnesota state court, Tenth Judicial District, Anoka County, against TomoTherapy alleging misappropriation of trade secrets, as well as several other counts alleging various theories of injury. Rotary Systems alleges TomoTherapy misappropriated Rotary Systems’ trade secrets pertaining to a component previously purchased from Rotary Systems, which component TomoTherapy now purchases from a different supplier. The suit alleges TomoTherapy improperly supplied the alleged trade secrets to its present supplier, Dynamic Sealing Technologies Inc. (also a named defendant in the suit). Rotary Systems has made an unspecified claim for damages of greater than $50,000. TomoTherapy moved to dismiss the case on May 19, 2011, and on August 29, 2011, the court granted the motion to dismiss with respect to all counts other than the count alleging misappropriation of trade secrets. On May 21, 2012, the court granted the Company’s motion for sanctions, in part, and gave Rotary Systems sixty days to identify the alleged trade secrets with specificity or face dismissal of its claim with prejudice. The court held a hearing on September 20, 2012 to review Rotary Systems’ amended complaint and set a calendar for discovery. The court ruled on the amended complaint, and the parties have started discovery, which was originally expected to be completed by October 2013.  The parties jointly asked the court to extend discovery until February 2014.  The Company filed a motion for summary judgment and, on September 11, 2013, the court held a hearing on the Company’s motion for summary judgment and to stay discovery pending the ruling on the summary judgment motion. On December 5, 2013, the court ruled in favor of the Company. Rotary Systems filed its notice of appeal on January 29, 2014.  On April 14, 2014, Rotary Systems filed its “Brief and Addendum of Appellant” with the court.  Unless it seeks an extension, the Company’s responsive brief will be due on May 19, 2014.

 

Sarif Biomedical Patent Litigation

 

On January 28, 2013, Sarif Biomedical filed a patent infringement complaint against the Company in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware. The complaint alleges the Company’s CyberKnife System directly infringes U.S. Patent No. 5,755,725 and seeks unspecified monetary damages for the alleged infringement. Accuray filed an answer to the complaint in March 2013. The court has not yet issued a scheduling order.

 

Cowealth Medical

 

On February 27, 2014, Cowealth Medical Holding Co., Ltd. (“Cowealth”), Accuray’s former distributor in China, submitted a request for arbitration with the International Chamber of Commerce International Court of Arbitration (“ICC”) alleging, among other matters, that Accuray breached its distributor agreement with Cowealth by wrongfully terminating Cowealth as its distributor and misappropriated certain of Cowealth’s confidential information.  Cowealth is seeking damages and injunctive relief.  Accuray’s answer and counterclaim are due to be submitted to the ICC on May 7, 2014.  Due to the preliminary nature of this litigation, the Company is unable to determine the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome against it and is unable to reasonably estimate a range of loss, if any.

 

Software License Indemnity

 

Under the terms of the Company’s software license agreements with its customers, the Company agrees that in the event the software sold infringes upon any patent, copyright, trademark, or any other proprietary right of a third party, it will indemnify its customer licensees against any loss, expense, or liability from any damages that may be awarded against its customer. The Company includes this infringement indemnification in all of its software license agreements and selected managed services arrangements. In the event the customer cannot use the software or service due to infringement and the Company cannot obtain the right to use, replace or modify the license or service in a commercially feasible manner so that it no longer infringes, then the Company may terminate the license and provide the customer a refund of the fees paid by the customer for the infringing license or service. The Company has not recorded any liability associated with this indemnification, as it is not aware of any pending or threatened actions that represent probable losses as of March 31, 2014.

6. Acquisition

 

On July 16, 2012, the Company acquired the remaining 90% of the outstanding shares of Morphormics, Inc., or Morphormics, a privately-held developer of medical imaging software based in North Carolina. This acquisition enables the Company to extend auto-contouring capabilities for both the CyberKnife and TomoTherapy systems to improve disease specific workflows. The Company previously held 10% of the outstanding shares of Morphormics, which had a carrying value of zero prior to the acquisition date and was valued at $0.7 million as of the acquisition date based on the fair value of the consideration paid. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination, and accordingly, Morphormics’ results of operations were included in the consolidated financial statements from July 16, 2012. This transaction was not considered a material business combination, and Company did not incur significant severance or acquisition-related costs in connection with the transaction.

 3.75% Convertible Senior Notes due August 2016

 

On August 1, 2011, the Company issued the 3.75% Convertible Notes to certain qualified institutional buyers, or QIBs. The 3.75% Convertible Notes were offered and sold to the QIBs pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or Rule 144A. The net proceeds from the $100 million offering, after deducting the initial purchaser’s discount and commission and the related offering costs, were approximately $96.1 million. The offering costs and the initial purchaser’s discount and commission (which are recorded in Other Assets) are both being amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over five years. The 3.75% Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 3.75% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears in cash on February 1 and August 1 of each year, beginning on February 1, 2012. The 3.75% Convertible Notes will mature on August 1, 2016, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted.

 

The 3.75% Convertible Notes were issued under an Indenture between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee. Holders of the 3.75% Convertible Notes may convert their 3.75% Convertible Notes at any time on or after May 1, 2016 until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the maturity date. Prior to May 1, 2016, holders of the 3.75% Convertible Notes may convert their 3.75% Convertible Notes only under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter after the calendar quarter ending September 30, 2011, and only during such calendar quarter, if the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock for each of 20 or more trading days in the 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter exceeds 130% of the conversion price in effect on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter; (2) during the five

consecutive business days immediately after any five consecutive trading-day period (such five consecutive trading-day period, the “Note Measurement Period”) in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of 3.75% Convertible Notes for each trading day of that Note Measurement Period was equal to or less than 98% of the product of the closing sale price of shares of the Company’s common stock and the applicable conversion rate for such trading day; (3) if the Company calls any or all of the 3.75% Convertible Notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the redemption date; or (4) upon the occurrence of specified corporate transactions as described in the Indenture. Upon conversion by holders of the 3.75% Convertible Notes, the Company will have the right to pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of common stock of the Company or a combination thereof, at the Company’s election. At any time on or prior to the 33rd business day immediately preceding the maturity date, the Company may irrevocably elect to (a) deliver solely shares of common stock of the Company in respect of the Company’s conversion obligation or (b) pay cash up to the aggregate principal amount of the 3.75% Convertible Notes to be converted and pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of common stock of the Company or a combination thereof in respect of the remainder, if any, of the Company’s conversion obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount of the 3.75% Convertible Notes being converted. The initial conversion rate is 105.5548 shares of the Company’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 3.75% Convertible Notes (which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $9.47 per share of the Company’s common stock). The conversion rate, and thus the conversion price, are subject to adjustment as further described below.

 

 Holders of the 3.75% Convertible Notes who convert their 3.75% Convertible Notes in connection with a “make-whole fundamental change,” as defined in the Indenture, may be entitled to a make-whole premium in the form of an increase in the conversion rate. Additionally, in the event of a “fundamental change,” as defined in the Indenture, holders of the 3.75% Convertible Notes may require the Company to purchase all or a portion of their 3.75% Convertible Notes at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of 3.75% Convertible Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the fundamental change repurchase date.

 

On or after August 1, 2014 and prior to the maturity date, the Company may redeem for cash all or a portion of the 3.75% Convertible Notes if the closing sale price of its common stock exceeds 130% of the applicable conversion price (the initial conversion price is approximately $9.47 per share of common stock) of such 3.75% Convertible Notes for at least 20 trading days during any consecutive 30 trading-day period (including the last trading day of such period).

 

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options, the Company separately accounts for the liability and equity conversion components of the 3.75% Convertible Notes. The principal amount of the liability component of the 3.75% Convertible Notes was $75.9 million as of the date of issuance based on the present value of its cash flows using a discount rate of 10%, our approximate borrowing rate at the date of the issuance for a similar debt instrument without the conversion feature. The carrying value of the equity conversion component was $24.1 million. A portion of the initial purchaser’s discount and commission and the offering costs totaling $0.9 million was allocated to the equity conversion component. The liability component is being accreted to the principal amount of the 3.75% Convertible Notes using the effective interest method over five years.

 

The following table presents the carrying value of the 3.75% Convertible Notes as of March 31, 2014 (in thousands):

3.50% Convertible Senior Notes due February 2018

 

In February 2013, the Company issued $115.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 3.50% Convertible Notes to certain QIBs. The 3.50% Convertible Notes were offered and sold to the QIBs pursuant to Rule 144A. The net proceeds from the offering, after deducting the initial purchaser’s discount and commission and the related offering costs, were approximately $110.5 million. The offering costs and the initial purchaser’s discount and commission (which are recorded in Other Assets) are both being amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over five years. The 3.50% Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 3.50% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears in cash on February 1 and August 1 of each year, beginning on August 1, 2013. The 3.50% Convertible Notes will mature on February 1, 2018, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted.

Table of Contents

 

The 3.50% Convertible Notes were issued under an Indenture between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee. Holders of the 3.50% Convertible Notes may convert their 3.50% Convertible Notes at any time until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the maturity date. The 3.50% Convertible Notes are convertible, as described below, into common stock of Accuray at an initial conversion rate equal to 187.6877 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 3.50% Convertible Notes, which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $5.33 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment.

 

Holders of the 3.50% Convertible Notes who convert their 3.50% Convertible Notes in connection with a “make-whole fundamental change”, as defined in the Indenture, may be entitled to a make-whole premium in the form of an increase in the conversion rate. Additionally, in the event of a “fundamental change,” as defined in the Indenture, holders of the 3.50% Convertible Notes may require the Company to purchase all or a portion of their 3.50% Convertible Notes at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of 3.50% Convertible Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the fundamental change repurchase date.

 

 In accordance with guidance in ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options and ASC 815-15, Embedded Derivatives, the Company determined that the embedded conversion components of the 3.50% Convertible Notes did not require bifurcation and separate accounting. The $115.0 million principal amount of the 3.50% Convertible Notes has been recorded in Long-term Debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2014.

 

In April 2014, through a series of transactions, the Company refinanced approximately $70.3 million aggregate principal amount of the 3.50% Convertible Notes with approximately $70.3 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s new 3.50% Series A Convertible Senior Notes due 2018 (the “New Notes”). In connection with such transactions, the Company also paid approximately $0.4 million in cash to the holders of the 3.50% Convertible Notes that participated in the refinancing. The New Notes have the same interest rate, maturity and other terms as the 3.50% Convertible Notes, except that the New Notes are convertible into cash, shares of the Company’s common stock or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, at the Company’s option. Following such transactions, approximately $44.7 million aggregate principal amount of the 3.50% Convertible Notes remained outstanding. See Note 12, “Subsequent Events,” for more discussion of the issuance of the New Notes in April 2014.

9. Loss From Discontinued Operations

 

In April 2008, TomoTherapy established a new affiliate, CPAC, to develop a compact proton therapy system for the treatment of cancer. Between the date of formation of CPAC through December 2012, the Company and TomoTherapy contributed both cash and intellectual property to CPAC, resulting in a combined equity interest of approximately 15.4% of the outstanding stock of CPAC and approximately 16.3% on a fully diluted basis. As of the Company’s acquisition of TomoTherapy on June 10, 2011, the Company determined that CPAC was a variable interest entity, as CPAC depended on the Company, TomoTherapy and other investors to fund its operations. Under the accounting standards for consolidating variable interest entities, the consolidating investor is the entity with the power to direct the activities of the venture that most significantly impact the venture’s economic performance and with the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the venture that could potentially be significant to the venture. Although the Company and its subsidiary held less than a 50% ownership interest in CPAC, it was determined that the Company met these two characteristics, and therefore, was the primary beneficiary of CPAC. The Company consolidated the results of operations of CPAC from June 10, 2011 to December 21, 2012.

 

On December 21, 2012, the Company and CPAC entered into a Purchase Agreement and Release, or Purchase Agreement, which provided for all the equity and debt investments held by the Company in CPAC to be purchased by CPAC for a nominal consideration. In addition, the Company assigned all its rights to the Dielectric Wall Accelerator technology licensed from Lawrence Livermore National Security, LLC, to CPAC. As a result of the Purchase Agreement, the Company concluded that it was no longer the primary beneficiary of CPAC since it did not have any variable interest in CPAC. In the second quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company deconsolidated CPAC and recorded a loss of $3.4 million, resulting from the write-down of the carrying value of CPAC’s net liabilities, the write-off of receivables from CPAC and the non-controlling interest in CPAC, net of cash consideration received. The results of operations of CPAC, including the loss on deconsolidation of CPAC and the losses attributable to the non-controlling interest recorded during the nine months ended March 31, 2013 have been disclosed as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

10. Restructuring and Severance Charges

 

During December 2012, the Company vacated an office facility and recorded a charge of $1.4 million in general and administrative expenses during the three months ended December 31, 2012 for the remaining lease obligations on the facility, net of estimated sub-lease income. The Company also recorded a charge of $0.3 million in general and administrative expenses during the three months ended December 31, 2012 related to the disposition of certain fixed assets and leasehold improvements at this facility.

 

During the three months ended December 31, 2012, the Company also recorded severance related charges of $2.2 million in general and administrative expenses due to the departure of Dr. Euan S. Thomson (former Chief Executive Officer), Mr. Chris Raanes (former Chief Operating Officer) and certain other employees.

 

On January 3, 2013, the Company announced a restructuring of operations to focus on improving commercial execution and position the Company to support sustainable revenue growth and profitability. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Company substantially completed the restructuring exercise, reduced its global workforce under this program by 108 full-time employees and recorded $4.9 million in charges for severance and related benefits for all affected employees. Restructuring charges are reflected within general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

 

11. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income

 

The components of comprehensive loss consist of net loss, unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale investments and foreign currency translation. The unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale investments and foreign currency translation are excluded from earnings and reported as a component of stockholders’ equity. The foreign currency translation adjustment results from those subsidiaries not using the United States dollar as their functional currency since the majority of their economic activities are primarily denominated in their applicable local currency. Accordingly, all assets and liabilities related to these operations are translated at the current exchange rates at the end of each period. The resulting cumulative translation adjustments are recorded directly to the accumulated other comprehensive loss account in stockholders’ equity. Revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates in effect during the period.

12. Subsequent Events

 

On April 17, 2014, the Company entered into note exchange agreements with certain holders (the “Participating Holders”) of the 3.50% Convertible Notes (see Note 8, “Debt”) to refinance approximately $70.3 million aggregate principal amount of the 3.50% Convertible Notes with approximately $70.3 million aggregate principal amount of the New Notes. Pursuant to the note exchange agreements, the Company also paid the Participating Holders an aggregate of approximately $0.4 million in cash in connection with such transactions. The principal amount of 3.50% Convertible Notes refinanced for each $1,000 principal amount of New Notes was $1,000 and the amount in cash paid per $1,000 principal amount of such 3.50% Convertible Notes delivered was determined in individual negotiations between the Company and each Participating Holder. The New Notes have the same interest rate, maturity and other terms as the 3.50% Convertible Notes, except that the New Notes are convertible into cash, shares of the Company’s common stock or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, at the Company’s option. Following such transactions, approximately $44.7 million aggregate principal amount of the 3.50% Convertible Notes remain outstanding.

 

The $70.3 million aggregate principal amount of New Notes plus $0.4 million paid to the Participating Holders in cash will be allocated between the liability and equity conversion components of the New Notes. As a result of this allocation, the liability component will be measured based on the fair value of the New Notes which will be discounted using the Company’s market interest rate for nonconvertible debt. The residual amount will be allocated to stockholders’ equity. The discounted debt will be accreted up to its face value resulting in additional non-cash interest expense being recognized in subsequent periods within the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. As of May 7, 2014, the allocation between total liabilities and stockholders’ equity had not been finalized.

In this report, “Accuray,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Accuray Incorporated and its subsidiaries.

 

Overview

 

Products and Markets

 

Accuray is a radiation oncology company that develops, manufactures and sells precise, innovative treatment solutions. Our leading edge technologies are designed specifically to deliver radiosurgery, stereotactic body radiation therapy, intensity modulated radiation therapy, image guided radiation therapy and adaptive radiation therapy that is tailored to the specific needs of each patient. Our suite of products includes the CyberKnife® Systems and the TomoTherapy® Systems. The systems are generally complementary offerings, serving generally separate patient populations treated by the same medical specialty.

 

The CyberKnife Systems are robotic systems designed to deliver radiosurgery treatments to cancer tumors anywhere in the body. The CyberKnife Systems are the only dedicated, full body robotic radiosurgery systems on the market. Radiosurgery is an alternative to traditional surgery for tumors and is performed on an outpatient basis in one to five treatment sessions. It allows for the treatment of patients who otherwise would not be treated with radiation, who may not be good candidates for surgery, or who desire non-surgical treatments. The use of radiosurgery with CyberKnife Systems to treat tumors throughout the body has grown significantly in recent years, but currently represents only a small portion of the patients who develop tumors treatable with CyberKnife Systems. A determination of when it may or may not be appropriate to use a CyberKnife System for treatment is at the discretion of the treating physician and depends on the specific patient. However, given the CyberKnife Systems’ design to treat focal tumors, the CyberKnife Systems are generally not used to treat (1) very large tumors, which are considerably wider than the radiation beam that can be delivered by CyberKnife Systems, (2) diffuse wide-spread disease, as is often the case for late stage cancers, because they are not localized (though CyberKnife Systems might be used to treat a focal area of the disease) and (3) systemic disease, like leukemias and lymphomas, which are not localized to an organ, but rather involve cells throughout the body.

 

In October 2012, we introduced our CyberKnife M6 Series Systems that have the option of: fixed collimator, iris collimator, and/or multi-leaf collimator, or MLC. The initial supplier producing the MLC for our CyberKnife M6 Series Systems has experienced low manufacturing yields and has been able to deliver only a small number of units. Our life-cycle testing revealed that the initial units did not have the durability that we, and our customers, expect in our products. Currently we expect a limited release of the MLC for the CyberKnife Systems in June of 2014. Our expectation is that the device will have original design specifications, but will be produced with modifications to our supply chain and quality control processes to ensure improved yield and durability. While we are confident in our path forward, due to the complexity of the MLC, there is still some risk in this project that could cause further delays. In the meantime, and despite the delay in the launch of the MLC upgrade, we are continuing to book orders and install the CyberKnife M6 Series Systems with fixed and iris collimators.

Table of Contents

 

We believe that the long-term success of the CyberKnife System is dependent on a number of factors including the following:

 

·                  Adoption of our recently introduced new CyberKnife M6 Series Systems;

 

·                  Production and shipment of our MLC that meets the standards that we, and our customers, expect in our products;

 

·                  Change in medical practice to utilize radiosurgery more regularly as an alternative to surgery or other treatments;

 

·                  Greater awareness among doctors and patients of the benefits of radiosurgery with the CyberKnife Systems;

 

·                  Continued evolution in clinical studies demonstrating the safety, efficacy and other benefits of using the CyberKnife Systems to treat tumors in various parts of the body;

 

·                  Continued advances in technology that improve the quality of treatments and ease of use of the CyberKnife Systems;

 

·                  Improved access to radiosurgery with the CyberKnife Systems in various countries through regulatory approvals;

 

·                  Medical insurance reimbursement policies that cover CyberKnife System treatments; and

 

·                  Expansion of sales of CyberKnife Systems in countries throughout the world.

 

The TomoTherapy Systems are advanced, fully integrated and versatile radiation therapy systems for the treatment of a wide range of cancer types. We began selling TomoTherapy Systems after our acquisition of TomoTherapy Incorporated on June 10, 2011. In October 2012, we introduced our new TomoTherapy H Series Systems that come in configurations of TomoHTM, TomoHDTM and TomoHDATM. Radiation therapy is used in a variety of ways, often to treat tissue surrounding a tumor area after surgical removal of the tumor and also as the primary treatment for tumors. Radiation therapy treatments impact both cancer cells as well as healthy tissue; therefore the total prescribed radiation dose is divided into many fractions and delivered in an average of 25 to 35 treatment sessions over several weeks. Radiation therapy has been widely available and used in developed countries for decades, though many developing countries do not currently have a sufficient number of radiation therapy systems to adequately treat their domestic cancer patient populations. The number of radiation therapy systems in use and sold each year is currently many times larger than the number of radiosurgery systems. We believe the TomoTherapy Systems offer clinicians and patients significant benefits over other radiation therapy systems in the market. We believe our ability to capture more sales in this established market will be influenced by a number of factors including the following:

 

·                  Adoption of our recently introduced new TomoTherapy H Series Systems;

 

·                  Greater awareness among doctors and patients of the benefits of radiation therapy using TomoTherapy Systems;

 

·                  Advances in technology which improve the quality of treatments and ease of use of TomoTherapy Systems;

 

·                  Greater awareness among doctors of the improvement in reliability of TomoTherapy Systems; and

 

·                  Expansion of TomoTherapy System sales in countries throughout the world.

 

Sale of Our Products

 

Generating revenue from the sale of our systems is a lengthy process. Selling our systems, from first contact with a potential customer to a signed sales contract that meets backlog criteria could generally span six months to two years. The time from receipt of a signed contract to revenue recognition is governed generally by the time required by the customer to build, renovate or prepare the treatment room for installation of the system. This time varies significantly, generally from six months to two years.

 

In the United States, while we primarily market to customers, including hospitals and stand-alone treatment facilities, directly through our sales organization, we also market to customers through a distributor and group purchasing organizations. Outside the United States, we market to customers directly and through distributors. We have sales and service offices in many countries in Europe, Japan and other countries in Asia, South America, and other countries throughout the world.

 

Backlog

 

We report backlog in the following manner:

 

·                  Products: Orders for systems and upgrades excluding those acquired through the upgrade rights included in certain service contracts are reported in backlog, excluding amounts attributable to PCS (warranty period services and post warranty services), installation, training and professional services.

 

·                  Service: Orders for PCS, upgrades acquired through the upgrade rights included in certain service contracts, installation services, training and professional services are not reported in backlog.

 

19



Table of Contents

 

For orders that cover both products and services, only the portion of the order that will be recognized as product revenue is reported as backlog. The portion of the order that will be recognized as service revenue (for example, PCS) is not included in reported backlog. Product backlog totaled $353.6 million as of March 31, 2014. This included $37.1 million of orders for either new CyberKnife M6 Systems configured with an MLC or orders for MLC units to upgrade existing installed CyberKnife M6 Systems. Additionally, for $37.5 million of CyberKnife orders, the customer has the option to upgrade to the new platform (M6) if the CyberKnife M6 Series is approved by regulatory authorities in its country prior to shipment. Product backlog totaled $297.9 million as of March 31, 2013.

 

In order for the product portion of a sales agreement to be counted as backlog, it must meet the following criteria:

 

·                  The contract is signed and properly executed by both the customer and us. A customer purchase order that is signed and incorporates the terms of our contract quote will be considered equivalent to a signed and executed contract;

 

·                  The contract is non-contingent—it either has cleared all its contingencies or contains no contingencies when signed;

 

·                  We have received a minimum deposit or a letter of credit; the sale is a direct channel sale to a government entity, or the product has shipped to a customer with credit sufficient to cover the minimum deposit;

 

·                  The specific end customer site has been identified by the customer in the written contract or written amendment; and

 

·                  Less than 2.5 years have passed since the contract met all the criteria above.

 

Although our backlog includes only contractual agreements from our customers to purchase CyberKnife Systems or TomoTherapy Systems, we cannot provide assurance that we will convert backlog into recognized revenue due to factors outside our control, which include, without limitation, changes in customers’ needs or financial condition, changes in government or health insurance reimbursement policies, changes to regulatory requirements, or other reasons for cancellation of orders.

Net Revenue

 

Sales of our products outside of the Americas region account for a significant portion of our total net revenue. Revenue derived from sales outside of the Americas region was $64.9 million and $42.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and represented 67% and 60% of our net sales during these periods, respectively. Revenue derived from sales outside of the Americas region was $161.2 million and $131.8 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and represented 60% and 57% of our net sales during these periods, respectively.

 

Product Net Revenue. Product net revenue increased by $22.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013. Product net revenue increased $19.0 million primarily due to a higher number of units sold, although the units also were sold at a higher average selling price due to product configuration mix. We recognized revenue on 15 units initially sold during the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to 9 units during the three months ended March 31, 2013. Additionally, in the three months ended March 31, 2014, product net revenue increased by $3.0 million due to increased revenue from cash basis collections and increased upgrade revenue.

 

Product net revenue increased by $22.9 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2013. The increase in product net revenue was primarily due to a higher number of units sold offset by product mix. We recognized revenue on 46 units during the nine months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to 36 units during the nine months ended March 31, 2013.

 

Services Net Revenue. Services net revenue increased by $4.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013. The increase in services net revenue of $2.6 million was attributable to an increase in our installed base and customer conversion to higher priced maintenance contracts (particularly the TomoTherapy Systems). The remaining increase of $2.0 million was primarily due to an increase in installation and training revenue due to more units installed.

 

Services net revenue increased by $13.4 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2013. The increase in services net revenue of $10.4 million was attributable to an increase in our installed base and customer conversion to higher priced maintenance contracts (particularly the TomoTherapy Systems). The increase of $2.8 million was primarily due to an increase in installation and training revenue due to more units installed.

 

Gross Profit

 

The overall gross profit margin for the three months ended March 31, 2014 increased by 13 percentage points as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013. Product gross margin for the three months ended March 31, 2014 increased by 20 margin points primarily due to reduction of fixed costs per unit sold due to the increase in sales. Services gross margin for the three months ended March 31, 2014 increased by 6 margin points primarily due to cost reductions associated with increased reliability of the TomoTherapy Systems and continued revenue growth due to installed base increases and contract mix.

 

The overall gross profit margin for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 increased by 9 percentage points as compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2013. Product gross margin for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 increased by 5 margin points as compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2013; product gross margin was higher by 3 margin percentage points due to increased revenues reducing fixed costs per unit, and higher by 2 margin percentage points due to the reduction in intangible asset amortization related to the acquisition of TomoTherapy on June 10, 2011. Services gross margin for the nine months period ended March 31, 2014 increased by 10 margin points primarily due to cost reductions associated with the increased reliability of the TomoTherapy Systems and continued revenue growth due to the increase in installed base and contract mix.

Research and Development

 

Research and development expenses were $13.8 million in the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to $15.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2013, which represents a decrease of $1.9 million, or 12%. The decrease was primarily due to lower compensation and compensation-related expense of $1.8 million primarily resulting from the re-organization of the research and development function during the third quarter of fiscal 2013. Project related consulting costs decreased by $1.5 million due to the completion of various research and development projects. The decrease was offset by higher bonus expense of $0.9 million and higher share-based compensation expense of $0.3 million.

 

Research and development expenses were $40.1 million in the nine months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to $51.5 million in the nine months ended March 31, 2013, which represents a decrease of $11.4 million, or 22%. The decrease was primarily due to lower compensation expense of $10.2 million resulting from the re-organization of the research and development function during the third quarter of fiscal 2013. Project related consulting costs decreased by $3.5 million due to the completion of various research and development projects. The decrease was offset by the higher bonus expense of $2.2 million and higher share-based compensation expense of $0.5 million.

 

Selling and Marketing

 

Selling and marketing expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2014 were $15.3 million as compared to $12.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013, which represents an increase of $2.7 million, or 21%. The increase was primarily due to a $2.5 million increase in compensation and compensation related expenses; commission expense increased by $0.7 million due to higher sales, bonus expense increased by $0.6 million, share-based compensation expense increased by $0.3 million, and other compensation related expense of $0.9 million increased mainly due to the increase in headcount.

 

Selling and marketing expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 were $44.0 million as compared to $41.3 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2013, which represents an increase of $2.7 million, or 7%. The increase was partially attributable to a $4.9 million increase in compensation and compensation related expenses, which consisted mainly of the increase in commission expense of $2.1 million due to higher sales, $1.4 million increase in bonus expense, and $0.7 million increase in share-based compensation expense mainly due to the increase in grants of equity awards and higher value per grant. The increase was offset by lower trade show expense of $2.5 million due to the introduction of two new products at an industry trade show in October 2012.

 

General and Administrative

 

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2014 were $11.1 million as compared to $16.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013, which represents a decrease of $5.6 million, or 34%. The decrease was partially attributable to $4.9 million of severance charges incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2013 due to the restructuring of operations announced in January 2013. In addition, other payroll and contractual labor expenses decreased by $0.8 million, consulting, legal and accounting related expenses decreased by $1.0 million due to cost control initiatives, and allowance for doubtful accounts decreased by $0.4 million due to the collection of doubtful accounts receivable during the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013. The decrease was offset by higher bonus expense of $0.8 million and higher share-based compensation expense of $0.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013.

 

General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 were $33.7 million as compared to $45.5 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2013, which represents a decrease of $11.8 million, or 26%. This decrease was partially attributable to $7.2 million of severance charges incurred during the three months ended December 31, 2012 for the departure of our former CEO, COO, CFO and other employees, and $1.7 million related to lease acceleration and fixed asset disposal charges from vacating an office facility during the three months ended December 31, 2012. In addition, payroll and contractual labor expenses decreased by $2.1 million and consulting, legal and accounting related expenses decreased by $2.5 million due to cost control initiatives during the nine months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2013. The decrease was offset by higher bonus expense of $1.6 million and higher share-based compensation expense of $0.4 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2013.

Other Expense, Net

 

Net other expense for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was $3.3 million as compared to $5.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013, which represents a decrease of $2.3 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, we recognized $3.5 million of interest expense related to our 3.75% Convertible Notes and 3.50% Convertible Notes, partially offset by interest income of $0.1 million from our available-for-sale investments. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, we recognized net other expense of $5.6 million primarily due to $2.8 million of interest expense related to our 3.75% Convertible Notes and 3.50% Convertible Notes and $2.5 million of foreign currency losses primarily resulting from the depreciation of the Japanese Yen against the U.S. Dollar.

 

Net other expense for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 was $9.5 million as compared to $8.8 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2013, which represents an increase of $0.7 million. During the nine months ended March 31, 2014, we recognized $10.4 million of interest expense related to our 3.75% Convertible Notes and 3.50% Convertible Notes, partially offset by interest income of $0.4 million from our available-for-sale investments and $0.3 million gain from foreign currency exchange. During the nine months ended March 31, 2013, we recognized net other expense of $8.8 million primarily due to $7.0 million of interest expense related to our 3.75% Convertible Notes and 3.50% Convertible Notes and $2.2 million of foreign currency losses primarily resulting from the depreciation of the Japanese Yen against the U.S. Dollar, partially offset by a $0.7 million gain on our previously held equity interest in Morphormics, Inc., resulting from our acquisition of Morphormics on July 16, 2012.

 

Provision for Incomes Taxes

 

On a quarterly basis, the Company provides for income taxes based upon an estimated annual effective income tax rate. Income tax expense was $0.9 million and $2.6 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014, respectively, compared to income tax expense of $0.6 million and $1.9 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2013, respectively. The increase in tax expense of $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013 and the increase of $0.7 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2013 were primarily related to an increase in corporate earnings of our foreign subsidiaries, net of release of tax reserves on several foreign entities due to a lapse of statute of limitations during the period.

 

Loss from Discontinued Operations

 

As a result of the deconsolidation of CPAC in the second quarter of fiscal 2013, the results of operations of CPAC and the losses attributable to the non-controlling interest recorded for the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2013 have been presented as discontinued operations.

 

Impairment of Indefinite Lived Intangible Assets

 

We incurred $12.2 million of impairment charges related to the write-down of our IPR&D asset during the three months ended September 30, 2012 based on results of research and development work carried out by CPAC, a variable interest entity consolidated by us until December 2012. See Note 3, “Goodwill and Intangible Assets” to the condensed consolidated financial statements for details.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

At March 31, 2014, we had $88.0 million in cash and cash equivalents and $86.0 million in short-term investments, for a total of $174.0 million. Cash from operations could be affected by various risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to the risks included in Part II, Item 1A of this Form 10-Q and in Part I, Item 1A titled “Risk Factors” of our Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2013. Also refer to Note 8, “Debt” to the condensed consolidated financial statements for discussion of the Convertible Notes. Based on our current business plan and revenue prospects, we believe that we will have sufficient cash resources and anticipated cash flows to fund our operations for at least the next 12 months.

 

In addition, the undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries at March 31, 2014 are considered to be indefinitely reinvested and unavailable for distribution in the form of dividends or otherwise. Accordingly, no provisions for U.S. income taxes have been provided thereon. We anticipate that we have adequate liquidity and capital resources and would not need to repatriate earnings. As of March 31, 2014, we had approximately $74.2 million of cash and cash equivalents at our foreign subsidiaries.

Cash Flows From Operating Activities

 

Net cash provided by operating activities in the nine months ended March 31, 2014 was $0.8 million, as compared to $61.9 million used in the nine months ended March 31, 2013. Net cash provided by operating activities in the nine months ended March 31, 2014 was primarily related to:

 

·                  Net loss of $25.6 million;

 

·                  Net loss was offset by non-cash items of $31.3 million related to depreciation of fixed assets, amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation, amortization and accretion of discount and premium on investments, amortization of debt issuance costs, accretion of interest on long-term debt, recovery of doubtful accounts receivable and provision for excess and obsolete inventory;

 

·                  Increase in accounts receivable of $2.0 million as a result of increased sales of $36.3 million offset by cash collections from customers in the nine months ended March 31, 2014;

 

·                  Increase in inventories of $14.8 million due to increase in purchases to support sales;

 

·                  Increase in prepaid expenses and other assets of $5.2 million primarily due to the increase in prepaid commissions balance of $3.1 million as a result of the increase in orders and prepaid taxes of $2.9 million mostly in foreign locations;

 

·                  Increase in accounts payable of $2.3 million due to the increase in inventory and timing of payments;

 

·                  Increase in accrued liabilities of $10.9 million primarily due to the increase in accrued bonus expense of $10.6 million, increase in other accrued compensation expense of $1.4 million, partially offset by the decrease in interest payable of $1.8 million due to the timing of payments; and

 

·                  Increase in customer advances of $4.2 million due to the payments received for the future revenue deliverables.

 

Net cash used in operating activities in the nine months ended March 31, 2013 was primarily related to:

 

·                  Net loss of $97.8 million, comprised of $78.7 million from continuing operations and $19.1 million from discontinued operations;

 

·                  Net loss was offset by non-cash items of $46.6 million primarily related to depreciation of fixed assets, amortization of intangible assets, impairment charges related to in-process research and development assets, share-based compensation, loss on deconsolidation of CPAC, amortization of debt issuance costs and accretion of interest expense on the 3.75% Convertible Notes, recovery of doubtful accounts receivable and provision for excess and obsolete inventory;

 

·                  Decrease in accounts receivable of $13.2 million due to lower billings;

 

·                  Increase in inventories of $12.2 million due to delays in manufacturing newly introduced products;

 

·                  Decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $14.5 million due to timing of vendor payments, payment of accrued bonuses for the prior fiscal year, reduction of compensation related accruals, payments for inventory buy-back obligations and other liabilities; and

 

·                  Increase in deferred revenue of $8.1 million mainly from increases in deferrals for support services due to an increase in the installed base.

Cash Flows From Investing Activities

 

Net cash provided by investing activities was $4.6 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2014, which primarily consisted of purchases of property and equipment of $9.6 million, purchases of investments of $30.4 million and sales and maturities of short-term investments of $44.6 million.

 

Net cash used in investing activities was $15.7 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2013, which primarily consisted of the purchase of property and equipment of $11.6 million and $3.9 million related to the acquisition of Morphormics.

 

Cash Flows From Financing Activities

 

Net cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended March 31, 2014 was $7.2 million, attributable to $7.4 million from proceeds from employee stock plans, partially offset by $0.2 million of taxes paid related to net share settlement of equity awards.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was $116.0 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2013. In February 2013, we issued the 3.50% Convertible Notes for net proceeds of $110.5 million. In addition, we received $5.5 million attributable to proceeds from the exercise of common stock options and the purchase of common stock under our equity compensation plans during the nine months ended March 31, 2013.

 

Operating Capital and Capital Expenditure Requirements

 

Our future capital requirements depend on numerous factors. These factors include but are not limited to the following:

 

·                  Revenue generated by sales of our products and service plans;

 

·                  Costs associated with our sales and marketing initiatives and manufacturing activities;

 

·                  Facilities, equipment and IT systems required to support current and future operations;

 

·                  Rate of progress and cost of our research and development activities;

 

·                  Costs of obtaining and maintaining FDA and other regulatory clearances of our products;

 

·                  Effects of competing technological and market developments; and

 

·                  Number and timing of acquisitions and other strategic transactions.

 

We believe that our current cash, cash equivalents and investments will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures for at least 12 months. If our cash and cash equivalents are insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements, we may seek to sell additional equity or debt securities or obtain additional credit facilities. The sale of additional equity or convertible debt securities could result in dilution to our stockholders. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of debt securities, these securities could have rights senior to those associated with our common stock and could contain covenants that would restrict our operations. Additional financing may not be available at all, or in amounts or on terms acceptable to us. If we are unable to obtain this additional financing, we may be required to reduce the scope of our planned product development and marketing efforts.

 

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

 

We presented our contractual obligations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the previous annual reporting period ended June 30, 2013. There have been no material changes outside of the ordinary course of business in those obligations during the current quarter.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, as well as revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. We evaluate our estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities. Actual results could therefore differ materially from those estimates if actual conditions differ from our assumptions.

 

During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014, there have been no changes to the critical accounting policies and estimates as discussed in Part II, Item 7 of our Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2013, which we believe are those related to revenue recognition, business combinations and intangible asset impairment, inventories, share-based compensation expense, income taxes, loss contingencies and corporate bonus expense and accruals.

 

Item 3.         Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

 

Future fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar may affect the price competitiveness of our products outside the United States. For direct sales outside the United States, we sell in both U.S. dollars and local currencies, which could expose us to additional foreign currency risks, including changes in currency exchange rates. Our operating expenses in countries outside the United States are payable in foreign currencies and therefore expose us to currency risk. To the extent that management can predict the timing of payments under sales contracts or for operating expenses that are denominated in foreign currencies, we may engage in hedging transactions to mitigate such risks in the future.

 

Interest Rate Risk

 

We maintain an investment portfolio of various holdings, types, and maturities. These securities are generally classified as available for sale and consequently, are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value with unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). At any time, a sharp rise or decline in interest rates could have a material adverse impact on the fair value of our investment portfolio. Likewise, increases and decreases in interest rates could have a material impact on interest earnings for our portfolio. The following table presents the hypothetical change in fair values in the financial instruments we held at March 31, 2014 that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. The modeling technique used measures the change in fair values arising from selected potential changes in interest rates on our investment portfolio, which had a fair value of $86.0 million at March 31, 2014. Market changes reflect immediate hypothetical parallel shifts in the yield curve of plus or minus 100, 75, 50 and 25 basis points (in thousands).

Equity Price Risk

 

On August 1, 2011, we issued $100 million aggregate principal amount of 3.75% Convertible Notes. Upon conversion, we can settle the obligation by issuing our common stock, cash or a combination thereof at an initial conversion rate equal to 105.5548 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 3.75% Convertible Notes, which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $9.47 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment. There is no equity price risk if the share price of our common stock is below $9.47 upon conversion of the 3.75% Convertible Notes. For every $1 that the share price of our common stock exceeds $9.47, we expect to issue an additional $10.6 million in cash or shares of our common stock, or a combination thereof, if all of the 3.75% Convertible Notes are converted.

 

On April 24, 2014, we issued approximately $70.3 million aggregate principal amount of New Notes. Upon conversion, we can settle the obligation by issuing our common stock, cash or a combination thereof at an initial conversion rate equal to 187.6877 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the New Notes, which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $5.33 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment. There is no equity price risk if the share price of our common stock is below $5.33 upon conversion of the New Notes. For every $1 that the share price of our common stock exceeds $5.33, we expect to issue an additional $13.2 million in cash or shares of our common stock, or a combination thereof, if all of the New Notes are converted.

 

Item 4.         Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Table of Contents

 

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2014. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of March 31, 2014 our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2014, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Inherent Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations.  Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and in reaching a reasonable level of assurance, management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

 

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1.               Legal Proceedings.

 

Please refer to Note 5, Commitments and Contingencies, to the condensed consolidated financial statements above for a description of certain legal proceedings currently pending against the Company.  From time to time we are involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business.

 

Item 1A.            Risk Factors.

 

A description of the risk factors associated with our business is included under “Risk Factors” contained in Part I, Item 1A of our Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2013, as updated in Part II, Item 1A of our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2013, and is incorporated herein by reference. The descriptions below include material changes to the risk factors affecting our business that were previously disclosed in such filings. Any risk factor included below supersedes the description of the relevant risk factor in such filings. Other than the items discussed below, there have been no material changes in our risk factors since such filings.

 

We have a large accumulated deficit, may incur future losses and may be unable to achieve profitability.

 

As of March 31, 2014, we had an accumulated deficit of $345.3 million. We may incur net losses in the future, particularly as we resolve manufacturing and supply issues with the MLC option for our new CyberKnife M6 Series and improve our selling and marketing activities. Our ability to achieve and sustain long-term profitability is largely dependent on our ability to successfully market and sell the CyberKnife and TomoTherapy Systems and to control our costs and effectively manage our growth. We cannot assure you that we will be able to achieve profitability. In the event we fail to achieve profitability, our stock price could decline.

 

If third-party payors do not provide sufficient coverage and reimbursement to healthcare providers for use of the CyberKnife and TomoTherapy Systems, demand for our products and our revenue could be adversely affected.

 

Our customers rely significantly on reimbursement for CyberKnife and TomoTherapy procedures. Our ability to commercialize our products successfully will depend in significant part on the extent to which public and private third party payors provide adequate coverage and reimbursement for procedures that are performed with our products. Third-party payors, and in particular managed care organizations, challenge the prices charged for medical products and services and institute cost containment measures to control or significantly influence the purchase of medical products and services. If reimbursement policies or other cost containment measures are instituted in a manner that significantly reduces the coverage for or payment for the procedures that are performed with our products, our existing customers may not continue using our products or may decrease their use of our products, and we may have difficulty obtaining new customers. Such actions would likely have a material adverse effect on our operating results.

Table of Contents

 

In November 2013, the centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, issued the 2014 Medicare payment rates for hospital outpatient services, for physicians, and services performed in the freestanding center setting for calendar year 2014. When compared to the prior year, the 2014 reimbursement rates are modestly higher or flat for conventional radiotherapy (IMRT and 3D conformal). For radiosurgery, some reimbursement rates significantly increased and others moderately decreased when compared to the prior year. Such decreases could have a negative impact on the continued use of our products by existing customers and our ability to obtain new customers. CMS reviews such rates annually, and could implement more significant changes in future years, which could discourage existing and potential customers from purchasing or using our products.

 

As a strategy to assist our sales efforts, we may offer extended payment terms, which may potentially result in higher Days Sales Outstanding and greater payment defaults.

 

We offer longer or extended payment terms for qualified customers in some circumstances. As of March 31, 2014, customer contracts with extended payment terms of more than one year amounted to less than 5% of our accounts receivable balance. While we qualify customers to whom we offer longer or extended payment terms, their financial positions may change adversely over the longer time period given for payment. This may result in an increase in payment defaults, which would affect our future revenue, as we recognize revenue on such transactions on a cash basis.

 

Our liquidity could be adversely impacted by adverse conditions in the financial markets.

 

At March 31, 2014, we had $88.0 million in cash and cash equivalents and $86.0 million in investments. The available cash and cash equivalents are held in accounts managed by third party financial institutions and consist of cash in our operating accounts and cash invested in money market funds and certificates of deposit. The investments are managed by third party financial institutions and consist of U.S. corporate debt securities and commercial paper. To date, we have experienced no realized losses on or lack of access to our invested cash, cash equivalents or investments; however, we can provide no assurances that access to our invested cash and cash equivalents will not be impacted by adverse conditions in the financial markets.

 

At any point in time, we also have funds in our operating accounts that are with third party financial institutions that exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or FDIC, insurance limits. While we monitor daily the cash balances in our operating accounts and adjust the cash balances as appropriate, these cash balances could be impacted if the underlying financial institutions fail or become subject to other adverse conditions in the financial markets. To date, we have experienced no loss or lack of access to cash in our operating accounts.

 

Our major stockholders own approximately 43% and directors and executive officers own approximately 0.9% of our outstanding common stock as of March 31, 2014, which could limit other stockholders’ ability to influence the outcome of key transactions, including changes of control.

 

As of March 31, 2014, our current holders of 5% or more of our outstanding common stock held in the aggregate approximately 43% of our outstanding common stock, while our directors and executive officers held in the aggregate approximately 0.9% of our outstanding common stock. This concentration of ownership may delay, deter or prevent a change of control of our company and will make some transactions more difficult or impossible without the support of these stockholders.

 

Future issuances of shares of our common stock could dilute the ownership interests of our stockholders.

 

Any issuance of equity securities could dilute the interests of our stockholders and could substantially decrease the trading price of our common stock. We may issue equity securities in the future for a number of reasons, including to finance our operations and business strategy (including in connection with acquisitions, strategic collaborations or other transactions), to adjust our ratio of debt to equity, to satisfy our obligations upon the exercise of outstanding options or for other reasons.

 

On August 1, 2011, we issued $100 million aggregate principal amount of our 3.75% Convertible Notes, and in February 2013, we issued $115 million aggregate principal amount of our 3.50% Convertible Notes. In April 2014, we issued approximately $70.3 million aggregate principal amount of our New Notes and paid approximately $0.4 million in cash to refinance approximately $70.3 million aggregate principal amount of our 3.50% Convertible Notes. Following such transactions, approximately $44.7 million aggregate principal amount of the 3.50% Convertible Notes remained outstanding. To the extent we issue common stock upon conversion of the Convertible Notes, that conversion would dilute the ownership interests of our stockholders.

 

28



Table of Contents

 

Increased leverage as a result of our Convertible Notes offerings may harm our financial condition and operating results.

 

As of March 31, 2014, we had total consolidated long-term liabilities of approximately $216.9 million, including the liability component of the 3.75% Convertible Notes in the amount of $87.3 million and the 3.50% Convertible Notes in the amount of $115.0 million.

 

In April 2014, we refinanced approximately $70.3 million aggregate principal amount of the 3.50% Convertible Notes held by the Participating Holders with approximately $70.3 million aggregate principal amount of the New Notes. In connection with such transactions, we also paid the Participating Holders approximately $0.4 million in cash.

 

Our level of indebtedness could have important consequences to stockholders and note holders, because:

 

·                  It could affect our ability to satisfy our obligations under the Convertible Notes;

 

·                  A substantial portion of our cash flows from operations will have to be dedicated to interest and principal payments and may not be available for operations, working capital, capital expenditures, expansion, acquisitions or general corporate or other purposes;

 

·                  It may impair our ability to obtain additional financing in the future;

 

·                  It may limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and industry; and

 

·                  It may make us more vulnerable to downturns in our business, our industry or the economy in general.

ARTICLE IV — PROPRIETARY RIGHTS

 

A.  No Impediments to Providing Consulting Services.  CONSULTANT represents that he is not party to any agreement with any individual or business entity, including any relating to protection of alleged trade secrets or confidential business information that would prevent him from providing the Services or that would be violated by the providing of the Services.

 

B.  Confidential and Proprietary Information.  CONSULTANT acknowledges that the post-employment terms of the ACCURAY Employee Invention Assignment and Confidentiality Agreement, the Employment Agreement that existed before this Agreement and the General Release and Separation Agreement which may be entered into between ACCURAY and CONSULTANT, remain in full force and effect, specifically including the prohibitions against using or disclosing any of ACCURAY’s trade secrets or proprietary and/or confidential information learned while employed by ACCURAY during any subsequent employment.  CONSULTANT also acknowledges that during the term of this Agreement he will have access to and learn additional confidential information and/or trade secrets regarding the business of ACCURAY and its related entities, including, but not limited to, radio surgery and radiation therapy devices, and various other business, financial, technical and employee information (collectively, “Confidential and Proprietary Information”).

 

C.  Restrictions on Use and Disclosure of Confidential and Proprietary Information.  In addition to the confidential information obligations that continue from the period of CONSULTANT’s employment with ACCURAY, CONSULTANT agrees to hold all Confidential and Proprietary Information in trust and in the strictest of confidence, and to protect the Confidential and Proprietary Information from disclosure, and to only use such Confidential and Proprietary Information as required to perform the Services hereunder.  CONSULTANT further agrees that he will not, directly or indirectly, use, publish, disseminate or otherwise disclose any Confidential and Proprietary Information to any third party without the prior written consent of ACCURAY, which may be withheld in its absolute discretion.

 

D.  Return of Property.  CONSULTANT agrees not to remove any property of ACCURAY or its related entities from their premises without express permission, and to return all such property, including computer data, written materials provided to or obtained during the term of this Agreement, customer and supplier address lists, and any other items of value at the time this Agreement is terminated.

 

3



 

E.  No Solicitation of Customers and Vendors.  CONSULTANT further agrees that, during the term of this Agreement and for a period of one year after the termination of it, he will not directly or indirectly, either on his own behalf or on behalf of any other person or entity, use any Confidential and Proprietary Information to attempt to persuade or solicit any customer or vendor of ACCURAY to cease to do business or to reduce the amount of business which any customer or vendor has customarily done or contemplates doing with them, or to expand the customer’s or vendor’s business with a competitor of ACCURAY or its related entities.

 

F.  No Solicitation of Employees and Other Consultants.  CONSULTANT further agrees, that during the Term of this Agreement and for a period of one year after its termination, he will not directly or indirectly, either on his own behalf or on behalf of any other person or entity, attempt to persuade or solicit any person who is an employee or consultant of ACCURAY or its related entities to terminate such employment or consulting relationship.  In addition, CONSULTANT agrees that after the termination of this Agreement he will not seek to obtain or misappropriate any of the Confidential and Proprietary Information of ACCURAY or its related entities from any of their current or former employees and consultants.

 

G.  Violations.  CONSULTANT agrees that ACCURAY and its related entities would be irreparably harmed by any actual or threatened violation of the promises in this Article IV, and therefore, that, in addition to other remedies, ACCURAY and its related entities will be entitled to an injunction prohibiting CONSULTANT from committing any such violations.

 

ARTICLE V — MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

 

A.  Independent Contractor Status.  CONSULTANT understands and agrees that he is an independent contractor and not an employee of ACCURAY and that he shall not become an employee of ACCURAY by virtue of the performance of the services called for under this Agreement.

 

B.  No Office Space.  CONSULTANT understands and agrees that he will not be provided with a regular office and access to telephone, clerical support and facsimile and internet services at ACCURAY.  CONSULTANT shall at his own expense acquire, operate, maintain and repair or replace any office and equipment and supplies as maybe required for his performance of consulting services under this Agreement.

 

C.  Subconsultants and Other Contractors.  CONSULTANT is not authorized to engage the services of subconsultants, vendors or other contractors on behalf of ACCURAY or its related entities, unless she has obtained written authorization from ACCURAY to do so in advance.  To the extent such advance authorization has been obtained, ACCURAY will pay for the services provided by such subconsultants, vendors and/or other contractors.

 

D.  Consultant’s Employees.  To the extent CONSULTANT has any employees as of the date he signs this Agreement or hires any employees during the Term of this Agreement, CONSULTANT understands and agrees that all such employees shall be his employees only, and that ACCURAY shall not be an employer of the employees.  ACCURAY shall have no

responsibility for providing and shall not provide directions, instructions or supervision to any of CONSULTANT’s employees.  Only CONSULTANT shall provide such directions, instructions and supervision.  In addition, all decisions with respect to the employment of CONSULTANT’s employees, if any, shall be made solely and exclusively by CONSULTANT.  ACCURAY shall have no responsibility for or input into such decisions.  CONSULTANT hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold ACCURAY harmless from and against any costs, losses, damages, obligations, liabilities and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, arising from or in connection with any claim asserted by any of CONSULTANT’s employees against ACCURAY based on the employees’ employment with CONSULTANT, such as claims for discrimination in employment, harassment, retaliation, violation of statutory law, and wrongful termination.

 

E.  No Purchases.  CONSULTANT shall not purchase materials or supplies for the accounts of ACCURAY or its related entities, or otherwise hold himself out as being authorized to make purchases for which ACCURAY or its related entities would be billed directly by the seller of the materials or supplies, unless such purchase is authorized in writing by ACCURAY in advance.

 

F.  Compliance with Governmental Requirements.  CONSULTANT will maintain in force and/or secure all required licenses, permits, certificates and exemptions necessary for the performance of his services under this Agreement, and at all times shall comply with all applicable federal, state and local laws, regulations and orders.

 

G.  Indemnification.  CONSULTANT shall indemnify and hold ACCURAY and its related entities, and the directors, officers, agents, representatives and employees of all such entities, harmless from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, costs, expenses, causes of action, claims, suits, legal proceedings and similar matters, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees, resulting from or arising out of the failure of CONSULTANT or any of his employees to comply with and perform fully the obligations hereunder, or resulting from any act or omission on the part of CONSULTANT, provided however that the indemnification shall not apply to any good faith action on the part of the CONSULTANT that is within the scope of this Agreement.  If any cause of action, claim, suit or other legal proceeding is brought against CONSULTANT in connection with any services rendered under this Agreement, CONSULTANT shall promptly notify ACCURAY upon learning of any such proceeding.

 

ACCURAY shall indemnify and hold CONSULTANT and his agents, employees, representatives and heirs, harmless from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, costs, expenses, causes of action, claims, suits, legal proceedings and similar matters, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees, resulting from or arising out of the performance of any act specifically requested or authorized by ACCURAY in connection with this Agreement.  This promise does not apply to any actions arising out of or in connection with CONSULTANT’s operation of any motor vehicle.  If any cause of action, claim, suit or other legal proceeding is brought against ACCURAY in connection with any services provided by CONSULTANT under this Agreement, ACCURAY shall promptly notify CONSULTANT upon learning of any such proceeding.

or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, in the English language, to the addresses set forth below the signatures of the parties hereto or to such other address as either of the parties hereto may from time-to-time designate to the other party in writing.

 

I.  Waiver.  No purported waiver by either party hereto of any provision of this Agreement or of any breach thereof shall be deemed a waiver of such provision or breach unless such waiver is in writing signed by the party making such waiver.  No such waiver shall be deemed to be a subsequent waiver of such provision or waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or any other provision hereof.

 

J.  Severability.  The provisions of this Agreement are severable, and if any part of it is found to be unenforceable, the other paragraphs shall remain fully valid and enforceable.

 

K.  Arbitration.  This Agreement shall in all respects be interpreted and governed by and under the laws of the State of California.  Any dispute between the parties hereto, including any dispute regarding any aspect of this Agreement or any act which allegedly has or would violate any provision of this Agreement or any law (hereinafter “Arbitrable Dispute”), will be submitted to arbitration through Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”) in San Jose, California, unless the parties agree to another location, using the JAMS Commercial Arbitration Rules (“JAMS Rules”). The arbitrator shall be an experienced arbitrator licensed to practice law in California and selected in accordance with the JAMS Rules, unless the parties agree to another arbitrator.  Arbitration shall be the exclusive remedy for any such Arbitrable Dispute.  The decision of the arbitrator shall be final, conclusive and binding upon the parties.  Should any party to this Agreement pursue any Arbitrable Dispute by any method other than said arbitration, the responding party shall be entitled to recover from the initiating party all damages, costs, expenses and attorneys’ fees incurred as a result of such action.  This section shall not restrict the right of ACCURAY to go to court seeking injunctive relief for a violation of Article IV of this Agreement, pending the outcome of an arbitration proceeding.

 

L.  Sole and Entire Agreement.  This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement between the parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter hereof, and fully supersedes any and all prior agreements or understandings between the parties hereto, whether written or oral, pertaining to the subject matter hereof.  No change in, modification of, or addition, amendment or supplement to this Agreement shall be valid unless set forth in writing and signed and dated by each of the parties hereto subsequent to the execution of this Agreement.

2007 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

(b)                                 Each person who, during the course of an Offering Period, first becomes an Eligible Employee subsequent to the Enrollment Date will be eligible to become a participant in the Plan on the first day of the first Purchase Period following the day on which such person becomes an Eligible Employee, subject to the requirements of Section 5 hereof and the limitations imposed by Section 423(b) of the Code.

5.                                      Participation.

 

(a)                                 Each Eligible Employee who is employed by the Company or a Designated Subsidiary on the calendar day immediately preceding the Effective Date shall automatically become a participant in the Plan with respect to the first Offering Period.  Each such participant shall be granted an option to purchase shares of Common Stock and shall be enrolled in such first Offering Period to the extent of ten percent (10%) of his or her Compensation for the pay days during the first Offering Period (or, if less, the maximum amount of contributions permitted to be made by such participant for such Offering Period by payroll deduction under the terms of this Plan).  Participants wishing to purchase shares of Common Stock during the first Offering Period shall do so by making a lump sum cash payment to the Company not later than ten (10) calendar days before each Exercise Date of such Offering Period, and each such payment may be made in an amount not exceeding ten percent (10%) of such participant’s Compensation for the pay days occurring during such Offering Period and occurring prior to such lump sum payment; provided, however, that such participant shall not be required to make such lump sum cash payments, or exercise all or any portion of such option to purchase shares of Common Stock by making such lump sum payments.  Following the Effective Date, each such participant may, during the period designated from time to time by the Administrator for such purpose, elect to make such contributions (or a lesser amount of contributions) for the first Offering Period by payroll deductions in accordance with Section 6 hereof, in lieu of making contributions in such lump sum cash payments under this subsection (a), or may elect to make no contributions for such Offering Period; provided, however, that, to make contributions by payroll deductions, such participant must complete the form of subscription agreement provided by the Company for the first Offering Period under this Plan.  If (i) during such Offering Period, such a participant elects to make contributions by payroll deduction, or elects to make no contributions for such Offering Period, or (ii) on or prior to the tenth (10th) calendar day before the last Exercise Date of such Offering Period, such a participant fails to make any lump sum cash payment, such participant shall be deemed to have elected not to make contributions by lump sum payment with respect to such first Offering Period.  Except as described in subsection (e) below, a participant may not make contributions by lump sum payment for any Offering Period other than the first Offering Period.

 

(b)                                 Following the first Offering Period, an Eligible Employee may become a participant in the Plan by completing a subscription agreement authorizing payroll deductions in a form acceptable to the Administrator and filing it with the Company’s payroll office fifteen (15) days (or such shorter or longer period as may be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion) prior to the applicable Enrollment Date.

 

(c)                                  Each person who, during the course of an Offering Period, first becomes an Eligible Employee subsequent to the Enrollment Date may become a participant in the Plan by completing a subscription agreement authorizing payroll deductions in a form acceptable to the Administrator and filing it with the Company’s payroll office fifteen (15) days (or such shorter or longer period as may be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion) prior to the first day of any Purchase Period during the Offering Period in which such person becomes an Eligible Employee.  The rights granted to such participant shall have the same characteristics as any rights originally granted during that Offering Period except that the first day of the Purchase Period in which such person initially participates in the Plan shall be the “Enrollment Date” for all purposes for such person, including determination of the Purchase Price.

 



 

(d)                                 Except as provided in subsection (a) hereof, payroll deductions for a participant shall commence on the first payroll following the Enrollment Date and shall end on the last payroll in the Offering Period to which such authorization is applicable, unless sooner terminated by the participant as provided in Section 10 hereof.

 

(e)                                  During a leave of absence approved by the Company or a Subsidiary and meeting the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.421-7(h)(2), a participant may elect to continue participating in the Plan by making cash payments to the Company on each pay day equal to the amount of the participant’s payroll deductions under the Plan for the pay day immediately preceding the first day of such participant’s leave of absence.

 

Alternatively, during a leave of absence approved by the Company or a Subsidiary and meeting the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.421-7(h)(2), a participant may elect to continue participating in the Plan, but not make any payroll deductions or cash payments. Any payroll deductions made prior to the beginning of the leave in the current Offering Period will be used to purchase shares at the end of the Purchase Period. The participant may resume payroll deduction when the leave ends and they return to work in an amount equal to their payroll deductions under the Plan for the pay day immediately preceding the first day of such participant’s leave of absence..

 

If a leave of absence is unapproved or fails to meet the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 1.421-7(h)(2), the participant will cease automatically to participate in the Plan.  In such event, the Company will automatically cease to deduct the participant’s payroll under the Plan.  The Company will pay to the participant his or her total payroll deductions for the Purchase Period, in cash in one lump sum (without interest), as soon as practicable after the participant ceases to participate in the Plan.

 

(f)                                   A participant’s completion of a subscription agreement will enroll such participant in the Plan for each successive Purchase Period and each subsequent Offering Period on the terms contained therein until the participant either submits a new subscription agreement, withdraws from participation under the Plan as provided in Section 10 hereof or otherwise becomes ineligible to participate in the Plan.

 

(g)                                  The subscription agreement(s) used in connection with the Plan shall be in a form prescribed by the Administrator, and the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, determine whether such agreement shall be submitted in written or electronic form.

 

6.                                      Payroll Deductions.

 

(a)                                 At the time a participant files his or her subscription agreement, he or she shall elect to have payroll deductions made on each pay day during the Offering Period in an amount from one percent (1%) to ten percent (10%) of the Compensation which he or she receives on each pay day during the Offering Period.

 



 

(b)                                 All payroll deductions made for a participant shall be credited to his or her account under the Plan and shall be withheld in whole percentages only.  Except as described in Section 5(a) hereof, a participant may not make any additional payments into such account.

 

(c)                                  A participant may discontinue his or her participation in the Plan as provided in Section 10 hereof, or may increase or decrease the rate of his or her payroll deductions during the Offering Period by completing or filing with the Company a new subscription agreement authorizing a change in payroll deduction rate.  The Administrator may, in its discretion, limit the number of participation rate changes during any Offering Period.  The change in rate shall be effective with the first full payroll period following five (5) business days after the Company’s receipt of the new subscription agreement (or such shorter or longer period as may be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion).

 

(d)                                 Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent necessary to comply with Section 423(b)(8) of the Code and Section 3(c) hereof, a participant’s payroll deductions may be decreased to zero percent (0%) at any time during a Purchase Period.

 

(e)                                  At the time the option is exercised, in whole or in part, or at the time some or all of the Company’s Common Stock issued under the Plan is disposed of, the participant must make adequate provision for the Company’s federal, state, or other tax withholding obligations, if any, which arise upon the exercise of the option or the disposition of the Common Stock.  At any time, the Company may, but shall not be obligated to, withhold from the participant’s compensation the amount necessary for the Company to meet applicable withholding obligations, including any withholding required to make available to the Company any tax deductions or benefits attributable to sale or early disposition of Common Stock by the Employee.

 

7.                                      Grant of Option.  On the Enrollment Date of each Offering Period, each Eligible Employee participating in such Offering Period shall be granted an option to purchase on each Exercise Date during such Offering Period (at the applicable Purchase Price) up to a number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock determined by dividing such participant’s payroll deductions accumulated prior to such Exercise Date and retained in the participant’s account as of the Exercise Date by the applicable Purchase Price; provided, however, that in no event shall a participant be permitted to purchase during each Purchase Period more than 2,500 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (subject to any adjustment pursuant to Section 19 hereof) (for the avoidance of doubt, in the event that the Offering Period and Purchase Period are approximately the same length, the participant shall only be entitled to purchase an aggregate of 2,500 shares during such period); and provided, further, that such purchase shall be subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 3(c) and 13 hereof.  The Administrator may, for future Offering Periods, increase or decrease, in its absolute discretion, the maximum number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock a participant may purchase during each Purchase Period and Offering Period.  Exercise of the option shall occur as provided in Section 8 hereof, unless the participant has withdrawn pursuant to Section 10 hereof or otherwise becomes ineligible to participate in the Plan.  The option shall expire on the last day of the Offering Period.

 



 

8.                                      Exercise of Option.

 

(a)                                 Unless a participant withdraws from the Plan as provided in Section 10 hereof or otherwise becomes ineligible to participate in the Plan, his or her option for the purchase of shares shall be exercised automatically on the Exercise Date, and the maximum number of full shares subject to the option shall be purchased for such participant at the applicable Purchase Price with the accumulated payroll deductions in his or her account.  No fractional shares shall be purchased; any payroll deductions accumulated in a participant’s account which are not sufficient to purchase a full share shall be retained in the participant’s account for the subsequent Purchase Period or Offering Period.  During a participant’s lifetime, a participant’s option to purchase shares hereunder is exercisable only by him or her.

 

(b)                                 If the Administrator determines that, on a given Exercise Date, the number of shares with respect to which options are to be exercised may exceed (i) the number of shares of Common Stock that were available for sale under the Plan on the Enrollment Date of the applicable Offering Period, or (ii) the number of shares available for sale under the Plan on such Exercise Date, the Administrator may in its sole discretion (x) provide that the Company shall make a pro rata allocation of the shares of Common Stock available for purchase on such Enrollment Date or Exercise Date, as applicable, in as uniform a manner as shall be practicable and as it shall determine in its sole discretion to be equitable among all participants exercising options to purchase Common Stock on such Exercise Date, and continue all Offering Periods then in effect, or (y) provide that the Company shall make a pro rata allocation of the shares available for purchase on such Enrollment Date or Exercise Date, as applicable, in as uniform a manner as shall be practicable and as it shall determine in its sole discretion to be equitable among all participants exercising options to purchase Common Stock on such Exercise Date, and terminate any or all Offering Periods then in effect pursuant to Section 20 hereof.  The Company may make pro rata allocation of the shares available on the Enrollment Date of any applicable Offering Period pursuant to the preceding sentence, notwithstanding any authorization of additional shares for issuance under the Plan by the Company’s stockholders subsequent to such Enrollment Date.  The balance of the amount credited to the account of each participant which has not been applied to the purchase of shares of stock shall be paid to such participant in one lump sum in cash as soon as reasonably practicable after the Exercise Date, without any interest thereon.

 

9.                                      Deposit of Shares.  As promptly as practicable after each Exercise Date on which a purchase of shares occurs, the Company may arrange for the deposit, into each participant’s account with any broker designated by the Company to administer this Plan, of the number of shares purchased upon exercise of his or her option.

 

10.                               Withdrawal.

 

(a)                                 A participant may withdraw all but not less than all of the payroll deductions credited to his or her account and not yet used to exercise his or her option under the Plan at any time by giving written notice to the Company in a form acceptable to the Administrator.  All of the participant’s payroll deductions credited to his or her account during the Offering Period shall be paid to such participant as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt of notice of withdrawal and such participant’s option for the Offering Period shall be automatically terminated, and no further payroll deductions for the purchase of shares shall be made for such Offering Period.  If a participant withdraws from an Offering Period, payroll deductions shall not resume at the beginning of the succeeding Offering Period unless the participant delivers to the Company a new subscription agreement.

 



 

(b)                                 A participant’s withdrawal from an Offering Period shall not have any effect upon his or her eligibility to participate in any similar plan which may hereafter be adopted by the Company or in succeeding Offering Periods which commence after the termination of the Offering Period from which the participant withdraws.

 

11.                               Termination of Employment.  Upon a participant’s ceasing to be an Eligible Employee, for any reason, he or she shall be deemed to have elected to withdraw from the Plan and the payroll deductions credited to such participant’s account during the Offering Period shall be paid to such participant or, in the case of his or her death, to the person or persons entitled thereto under Section 15 hereof, as soon as reasonably practicable and such participant’s option for the Offering Period shall be automatically terminated.

 

12.                               Interest.  No interest shall accrue on the payroll deductions or lump sum contributions of a participant in the Plan.

 

13.                               Shares Subject to Plan.

 

(a)                                 Subject to adjustment upon changes in capitalization of the Company as provided in Section 19 hereof, the maximum number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock which shall be made available for sale under the Plan shall be 1,000,000 shares.  In addition to the foregoing, subject to Section 19 hereof, commencing on July 1, 2008 and on the first day of each fiscal year of the Company thereafter during the term of the Plan, the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock which shall be made available for sale under the Plan shall be increased by that number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock equal to the least of (i) one percent (1%) of the Company’s outstanding shares on such date, (ii) 1,000,000 shares, or (iii) a lesser amount determined by the Board.  The Company’s fiscal year currently begins on July 1 and ends on June 30 of each year and, accordingly, the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock which shall be available for sale under the Plan shall be subject to automatic increase under the preceding sentence only on July 1, 2008 and on each subsequent July 1 through and including July 1, 2016 (provided that the Company’s fiscal year remains the same).  If any right granted under the Plan shall for any reason terminate without having been exercised, the Common Stock not purchased under such right shall again become available for issuance under the Plan.  The stock subject to the Plan may be unissued shares or reacquired shares, bought on the market or otherwise.

 

(b)                                 With respect to shares of stock subject to an option granted under the Plan, a participant shall not be deemed to be a stockholder of the Company, and the participant shall not have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder, until such shares have been issued to the participant or his or her nominee following exercise of the participant’s option.  No adjustments shall be made for dividends (ordinary or extraordinary, whether in cash securities, or other property) or distribution or other rights for which the record date occurs prior to the date of such issuance, except as otherwise expressly provided herein.

 



 

14.                               Administration.

 

(a)                                 The Plan shall be administered by the Board unless and until the Board delegates administration to a Committee as set forth below.  The Board may delegate administration of the Plan to a Committee comprised of two or more members of the Board, each of whom is a “non-employee director” within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 which has been adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and which is otherwise constituted to comply with applicable law, and the term “Committee” shall apply to any persons to whom such authority has been delegated, provided that any action taken by the Committee shall be valid and effective, whether or not members of the Committee at the time of such action are later determined not to have satisfied the requirements for membership set forth in this Section 14(a) or otherwise provided in the charter of the Committee.  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, subject, however, to such resolutions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as may be adopted from time to time by the Board.  The governance of the Committee shall be subject to the charter of the Committee as approved by the Board.  References in this Plan to the “Administrator” shall mean the Board unless administration is delegated to a Committee or subcommittee, in which case references in this Plan to the Administrator shall thereafter be to the Committee or subcommittee.

 

(b)                                 It shall be the duty of the Administrator to conduct the general administration of the Plan in accordance with the provisions of the Plan.  The Administrator shall have the power to interpret the Plan and the terms of the options and to adopt such rules for the administration, interpretation, and application of the Plan as are consistent therewith and to interpret, amend or revoke any such rules.  The Administrator at its option may utilize the services of an agent to assist in the administration of the Plan including establishing and maintaining an individual securities account under the Plan for each participant.  In its absolute discretion, the Board may at any time and from time to time exercise any and all rights and duties of the Administrator under the Plan.

 

(c)                                  All expenses and liabilities incurred by the Administrator in connection with the administration of the Plan shall be borne by the Company.  The Administrator may, with the approval of the Board, employ attorneys, consultants, accountants, appraisers, brokers or other persons.  The Administrator, the Company and its officers and directors shall be entitled to rely upon the advice, opinions or valuations of any such persons.  All actions taken and all interpretations and determinations made by the Administrator in good faith shall be final and binding upon all participants, the Company and all other interested persons.  No member of the Board shall be personally liable for any action, determination or interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Plan or the options, and all members of the Board shall be fully protected by the Company in respect to any such action, determination, or interpretation.

 

15.                               Designation of Beneficiary.

 

(a)                                 A participant may file a written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any shares and cash, if any, from the participant’s account under the Plan in the event of such participant’s death subsequent to an Exercise Date on which the option is exercised but prior to delivery to such participant of such shares and cash.  In addition, a participant may file a

 



 

written designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any cash from the participant’s account under the Plan in the event of such participant’s death prior to exercise of the option.  If a participant is married and the designated beneficiary is not the spouse, spousal consent shall be required for such designation to be effective.

 

(b)                                 Such designation of a beneficiary may be changed by the participant at any time by written notice to the Company.  In the event of the death of a participant and in the absence of a beneficiary validly designated under the Plan who is living at the time of such participant’s death, the Company shall deliver such shares and/or cash to the executor or administrator of the estate of the participant, or if no such executor or administrator has been appointed (to the knowledge of the Company), the Company, in its discretion, may deliver such shares and/or cash to the spouse or to any one or more dependents or relatives of the participant, or if no spouse, dependent or relative is known to the Company, then to such other person as the Company may designate.

 

16.                               Transferability.  Neither payroll deductions credited to a participant’s account nor any rights with regard to the exercise of an option or to receive shares under the Plan may be assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of in any way (other than by will, the laws of descent and distribution or as provided in Section 15 hereof) by the participant.  Any such attempt at assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition shall be without effect, except that the Company may treat such act as an election to withdraw funds from an Offering Period in accordance with Section 10 hereof.

 

17.                               Use of Funds.  All payroll deductions received or held by the Company under the Plan may be used by the Company for any corporate purpose, and the Company shall not be obligated to segregate such payroll deductions.

 

18.                               Reports.  Individual accounts shall be maintained for each participant in the Plan.  Statements of account shall be given to participating Employees at least annually, which statements shall set forth the amounts of payroll deductions, the Purchase Price, the number of shares purchased and the remaining cash balance, if any.

 

19.                               Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization, Dissolution, Liquidation, Merger or Asset Sale.

 

(a)                                 Changes in Capitalization.  Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company, the number of shares of Common Stock which have been authorized for issuance under the Plan but not yet placed under option, the maximum number of shares each participant may purchase each Purchase Period (pursuant to Section 7 hereof), as well as the price per share and the number of shares of Common Stock covered by each option under the Plan which has not yet been exercised shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Common Stock resulting from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification of the Common Stock, or any other increase or decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company; provided, however, that conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed to have been “effected without receipt of consideration.”  Such adjustment shall be made by the Administrator, whose determination in

 



 

that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive.  Except as expressly provided herein, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of shares of Common Stock subject to an option.

 

(b)                                 Dissolution or Liquidation.  In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Offering Period then in progress shall be shortened by setting a new Exercise Date (the “New Exercise Date”), and shall terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed dissolution or liquidation, unless provided otherwise by the Administrator.  The New Exercise Date shall be before the effective date of the Company’s proposed dissolution or liquidation.  The Administrator shall notify each participant in writing, at least ten (10) business days prior to the New Exercise Date, that the Exercise Date for the participant’s option has been changed to the New Exercise Date and that the participant’s option shall be exercised automatically on the New Exercise Date, unless prior to such date the participant has withdrawn from the Offering Period as provided in Section 10 hereof.

 

(c)                                  Merger or Asset Sale.  In the event of a proposed sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or the merger of the Company with or into another corporation, each outstanding option shall be assumed or an equivalent option substituted by the successor corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary of the successor corporation.  In the event that the successor corporation refuses to assume or substitute for the option, any Purchase Periods then in progress shall be shortened by setting a New Exercise Date and any Offering Periods then in progress shall end on the New Exercise Date.  The New Exercise Date shall be before the effective date of the Company’s proposed sale or merger.  The Administrator shall notify each participant in writing, at least ten (10) business days prior to the New Exercise Date, that the Exercise Date for the participant’s option has been changed to the New Exercise Date and that the participant’s option shall be exercised automatically on the New Exercise Date, unless prior to such date the participant has withdrawn from the Offering Period as provided in Section 10 hereof.

 

20.                               Amendment or Termination.

 

(a)                                 The Board may at any time and for any reason terminate or amend the Plan.  Except as provided in Section 19 hereof, no such termination shall affect options previously granted, provided that an Offering Period may be terminated by the Board if the Board determines that the termination of the Offering Period or the Plan is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.  Except as provided in Section 19 hereof and this Section 20, no amendment may make any change in any option theretofore granted which adversely affects the rights of any participant without the consent of such participant.  To the extent necessary to comply with Section 423 of the Code (or any successor rule or provision or any other applicable law, regulation or stock exchange rule), the Company shall obtain stockholder approval of any amendment in such a manner and to such a degree as required.

 

(b)                                 Without stockholder consent and without regard to whether any participant rights may be considered to have been “adversely affected,” the Administrator shall be entitled to change the Offering Periods, limit the frequency and/or number of changes in the amount withheld during an Offering Period, establish the exchange ratio applicable to amounts

 



 

withheld in a currency other than U.S. dollars, permit payroll withholding in excess of the amount designated by a participant in order to adjust for delays or mistakes in the Company’s processing of properly completed withholding elections, establish reasonable waiting and adjustment periods and/or accounting and crediting procedures to ensure that amounts applied toward the purchase of Common Stock for each participant properly correspond with amounts withheld from the participant’s Compensation, and establish such other limitations or procedures as the Administrator determines in its sole discretion advisable which are consistent with the Plan.

 

(c)                                  In the event the Board determines that the ongoing operation of the Plan may result in unfavorable financial accounting consequences, the Board may, in its discretion and, to the extent necessary or desirable, modify or amend the Plan to reduce or eliminate such accounting consequence including, but not limited to:

 

(i)                                     altering the Purchase Price for any Offering Period including an Offering Period underway at the time of the change in Purchase Price;

 

(ii)                                  shortening any Offering Period so that the Offering Period ends on a new Exercise Date, including an Offering Period underway at the time of the Administrator action; and

 

(iii)                               allocating shares.

 

Such modifications or amendments shall not require stockholder approval or the consent of any Plan participants.

 

21.                               Notices.  All notices or other communications by a participant to the Company under or in connection with the Plan shall be deemed to have been duly given when received in the form specified by the Company at the location, or by the person, designated by the Company for the receipt thereof.

 

22.                               Conditions to Issuance of Shares.  The Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock purchased upon the exercise of options prior to fulfillment of all the following conditions:

 

(a)                                 The admission of such shares to listing on all stock exchanges, if any, on which the Common Stock is then listed; and

 

(b)                                 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 absolute discretion, deem necessary or advisable; and

 

(c)                                  The obtaining of any approval or other clearance from any state or federal governmental agency which the Administrator shall, in its absolute discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable; and

 



 

(d)                                 The payment to the Company of all amounts which it is required to withhold under federal, state or local law upon exercise of the option; and

 

(e)                                  The lapse of such reasonable period of time following the exercise of the option as the Administrator may from time to time establish for reasons of administrative convenience.

 

23.                               Term of Plan.  Subject to approval by the Company’s stockholders, the Plan shall become effective as of the Effective Date.  The Plan shall be deemed to be approved by the Company’s stockholders if it receives the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of stock of the Company in accordance with applicable law and the applicable provisions of the Company’s bylaws.  Subject to approval by the stockholders of the Company in accordance with this Section 23, the Plan shall be in effect until the tenth (10th) anniversary of the date of the initial adoption of the Plan by the Board, unless sooner terminated under Section 20 hereof.

 

24.                               Equal Rights and Privileges.  All Eligible Employees of the Company (or of any Designated Subsidiary) will have equal rights and privileges under this Plan so that this Plan qualifies as an “employee stock purchase plan” within the meaning of Section 423 of the Code or applicable Treasury regulations thereunder.  Any provision of this Plan that is inconsistent with Section 423 or applicable Treasury regulations will, without further act or amendment by the Company, the Board or the Administrator, be reformed to comply with the equal rights and privileges requirement of Section 423 or applicable Treasury regulations.

 

25.                               Section 409A.  The options to purchase shares of Common Stock under the Plan are not intended to constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code.  However, if at any time the Administrator determines that the options may be subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Administrator shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to amend the Plan and any outstanding options as it may determine is necessary or desirable either to exempt the options from the application of Section 409A of the Code or to cause the options to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

 

26.                               No Employment Rights.  Nothing in the Plan shall be construed to give any person (including any Eligible Employee or participant) the right to remain in the employ of the Company, a Parent or a Subsidiary or to affect the right of the Company, any Parent or any Subsidiary to terminate the employment of any person (including any Eligible Employee or participant) at any time, with or without cause.

 

27.                               Notice of Disposition of Shares.  Each participant shall give prompt notice to the Company of any disposition or other transfer of any shares of stock purchased upon exercise of an option if such disposition or transfer is made:  (a) within two (2) years from the Enrollment Date of the Offering Period in which the shares were purchased or (b) within one (1) year after the Exercise Date on which such shares were purchased.  Such notice shall specify the date of such disposition or other transfer and the amount realized, in cash, other property, assumption of indebtedness or other consideration, by the participant in such disposition or other transfer.

 

28.                               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.
