STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT
This STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is made and entered into as of November 14, 2002 by and among ALIGN TECHNOLOGY, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and the Investors listed on Exhibit A hereto (each, an "Investor", and collectively, the "Investors").
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, the Company desires to sell to the Investors, and the Investors desire to purchase from the Company, severally and not jointly, shares of the Company's Common Stock on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE PARTIES HEREBY AGREE AS FOLLOWS:
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company has authorized the sale of up to 9,578,944 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.0001, of the Company (the "Shares") to the Investors in a private placement (the "Offering").
At the Closing (as defined in Section 3), the Company will sell to each Investor, and each Investor will purchase from the Company, upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the number of Shares set forth next to such Investor's name on the Exhibit A hereto at the purchase price of $1.90 per Share.
The completion of the purchase and sale of the Shares (the "Closing") shall occur at 10 a.m. on November 19, 2002, or such other place and time as mutually agreed between the Company and the Investors, but in any case prior to November 26, 2002 (the "Closing Date"). At the Closing, after receipt of payment therefore by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the Company shall arrange delivery to each Investor one or more stock certificates representing the number of Shares set forth on the signature page hereto, each such certificate to be registered in the name of such Investor.
Except as otherwise described in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") since December 31, 2001 (the "SEC Documents"), in the Company's press releases since December 31, 2001, and in any operational, managerial and other information regarding the Company provided to or reviewed by any Investor in connection with any Board of Directors meeting or in due diligence meetings with the Company or provided as due diligence materials by the Company (the "Proprietary Information") disclosed by the Company to the Investors in contemplation of this offering, including the documents incorporated by reference therein (the SEC Documents, press releases and the Proprietary Information are collectively referred to herein as the "Company Information"), which qualify the following representations and warranties in their entirety, the Company hereby represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Investors, as follows:
The Company is duly incorporated and validly existing in good standing under the laws of Delaware. The Company has full power and authority to own, operate and occupy its properties and to conduct its business as presently conducted and is registered or qualified to do business and in good standing in each jurisdiction in which it owns or leases property or transacts business and where the failure to be so qualified would have a material adverse effect upon the Shares, the ability of the Company to perform its obligations hereunder (including the issuance of the Shares), or the business, financial condition, properties or operations of the Company ("Material Adverse Effect"), and no proceeding has been instituted in any such jurisdiction revoking, limiting or curtailing, or seeking to revoke, limit or curtail, such power and authority or qualification.
The Company has all requisite power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement, and this Agreement has been duly authorized and validly executed and delivered by the Company and constitute the legal, valid and binding agreement of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as rights to indemnity and contribution may be limited by state or federal securities laws or the public policy underlying such laws, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors' and contracting parties' rights generally and except as enforceability may be subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).
The execution and delivery of this Agreement, the issuance and sale of the Shares to be sold by the Company under this Agreement, the fulfillment of the terms of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not (A) conflict with or constitute a violation of, or default (with the passage of time or otherwise) under, (i) any material bond, debenture, note or other evidence of indebtedness, or any material lease, contract, indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, joint venture or other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it or its property is bound, (ii) the certificate of incorporation, by-laws or other organizational documents of the Company, or (iii) any law, administrative regulation, ordinance or order of any court or governmental agency, arbitration panel or authority binding upon the Company or its property, or (B) result in the creation or imposition of any lien, encumbrance, claim, security interest or restriction whatsoever upon any of the material properties or assets of the Company or an acceleration of indebtedness pursuant to any obligation, agreement or condition contained in any bond, debenture, note or any other evidence of indebtedness or any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust or any other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound or to which any of the property or assets of the Company is subject, in the cases of (A) and (B) which is reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No consent, approval, authorization or other order of, or registration, qualification or filing with, any regulatory body, administrative agency, or other governmental body in the United States is required for the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the valid issuance and sale of the Shares to be sold pursuant to this Agreement, other than such as have been made or obtained, and except for any securities filings required to be made under federal or state securities laws or the requirements of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. and which are permitted to be made after the Closing, and except for such securities filings, the failure to so make has not had, or would not be reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.
The capitalization of the Company is described in the Company's SEC Documents as of the dates set forth therein. The Company has not issued any capital stock since March 15, 2001 other than pursuant to employee benefit plans disclosed in the Company's SEC Documents. The Shares to be sold pursuant to this Agreement have been duly authorized, and when issued and paid for in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. Except as set forth in or contemplated by the Company's SEC Documents, there are no outstanding rights (including, without limitation, preemptive rights), warrants or options to acquire, or instruments convertible into or exchangeable for, any unissued shares of capital stock or other equity interest in the Company, or any contract, commitment, agreement, understanding or arrangement of any kind to which the Company is a party and relating to the issuance or sale of any capital stock of the Company, any such convertible or exchangeable securities or any such rights, warrants or options. Without limiting the foregoing, no preemptive right, co-sale right, registration right, right of first refusal or other similar right exists with respect to the issuance and sale of the Shares.
There is no legal or governmental proceeding pending , or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened, to which the Company is a party or of which the business or property of the Company is subject that is not disclosed in the Company's SEC Documents which is reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
The Company is not in violation of its certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational document, or in violation of any law, administrative regulation, ordinance or order of any court or governmental agency, arbitration panel or authority applicable to the Company, which violation, individually or in the aggregate, has had, or would be reasonably likely to have, a Material Adverse Effect, and the Company is not in default (and there exists no condition which, with the passage of time or otherwise, would constitute a material default) in the performance of any bond, debenture, note or any other evidence of indebtedness in any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust or any other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound or by which the property of the Company is bound, which has had, or would be reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.
The Company owns or possesses adequate patents, patent rights, licenses, inventions, copyrights, know-how (including trade secrets and other unpatented and/or unpatentable proprietary or confidential information, systems or procedures), trademarks, service marks, trade names or other intellectual property (collectively, "Intellectual Property") necessary to carry on the business now operated by it, and the Company has not received any notice nor is any executive officer of the Company aware of any infringement of or conflict with asserted rights of others with respect to any Intellectual Property or of any facts or circumstances which would render any of the Company's Intellectual Property invalid or inadequate to protect the interest of the Company therein, and which infringement or conflict (if the subject of any unfavorable decision, ruling or finding) or invalidity or inadequacy, singly or in the aggregate, is reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
The financial statements of the Company and the related notes contained in the Company's SEC Documents present fairly, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), the financial position of the Company as of the dates indicated, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods therein specified. Such financial statements (including the related notes) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods therein specified, except as disclosed in the Company's SEC Documents. Each of the financial statements (including, in each case, any notes thereto) contained in the SEC Documents (the "Financial Statements") complies as to form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto and was prepared in all material respects in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods indicated (except as may be indicated in the notes thereto or, in the case of unaudited statements, as permitted by Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the SEC).
The Company's Common Stock is registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act and is listed on The Nasdaq National Market (the "Nasdaq Stock Market"), and the Company has taken no action designed to, or likely to have the effect of, terminating the registration of the Common Stock under the Exchange Act or delisting the Common Stock from the Nasdaq Stock Market. The Company is not currently in violation of the listing or maintenance requirements of The Nasdaq National Market and does not reasonably anticipate that the Common Stock will be delisted by The Nasdaq National Market in the twelve month period following the Closing Date based on its rules (and interpretations thereof) as currently in effect. Assuming no changes to current Nasdaq Stock Market rules, all Shares shall be listed on The Nasdaq National Market in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.
The Company has filed all reports, schedules, registration statements, forms and other documents required to be filed by the Company with the SEC, including those that the Company may file with the SEC after the date of this Agreement until the Closing ("SEC Filings") required to be filed as of the date hereof. The SEC Filings (i) were or will be filed on a timely basis, (ii) at the time filed, were or will be prepared in compliance in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, as the case may be, and the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder applicable to such SEC Filings, and (iii) did not or will not at the time they were or are filed contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated in such SEC Filings or necessary in order to make the statements in such SEC Filings, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
The Company shall comply with all requirements of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. with respect to the issuance of the Shares and the subsequent listing thereof on the Nasdaq Stock Market except to the extent that the failure to comply with any such requirements is not reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
The Company is not an "investment company" or an "affiliated person" of, or "promoter" or "principal underwriter" for an investment company, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
The Company is not and will not be obligated for any finder's or broker's fee or commission in connection with this Agreement or any of the transaction contemplated hereby.
Neither the Company, nor any of its affiliates, nor any person acting on its or their behalf, has, directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security under circumstances that would require registration of the Shares being offered hereby under the Securities Act or cause this offering of Shares to be integrated with any prior offering of securities of the Company for purposes of the Securities Act. Assuming the accuracy of the Investors' representations and warranties, the offer, sale and delivery of Shares will be exempt from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act. Assuming the truth and accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Investors set forth in Section 5 of this Agreement, the Investors will not be statutory underwriters within the meaning of Section 2(a) 11 of the Securities Act.
The Company is currently eligible to register the resale of its Common Stock on a registration statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act. The Company is not aware of any facts or circumstances (including without limitation any required approvals or waivers of any circumstances that may delay or prevent the obtaining of accountant's consents) that would prohibit or delay the preparation and filing of a registration statement on Form S-3 with respect to the Shares provided that such registration is not deemed a "primary offering".
All information relating to or concerning the Company set forth in this Agreement (including the schedules attached hereto) is true and correct in all material respects and the Company has not omitted to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements made herein or therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made and in light of the disclosure of the Proprietary Information, not misleading.
Each Investor, severally and not jointly, hereby represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Company, as follows:
The Investor represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Company that: (i) the Investor is an "accredited investor" as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act and the Investor is also knowledgeable, sophisticated and experienced in making, and is qualified to make decisions with respect to, investments in shares presenting an investment decision like that involved in the purchase of the Shares, including investments in securities issued by the Company and investments in comparable companies, and has requested, received, reviewed and considered all information it deemed relevant in making an informed decision to purchase the Shares; (ii) the Investor is acquiring the number of Shares set forth on Exhibit A hereto in the ordinary course of its business and for its own account for investment only and with no present intention of distributing any of such Shares or any arrangement or understanding with any other persons regarding the distribution of such Shares; (iii) the Investor will not, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, pledge, transfer or otherwise dispose of (or solicit any offers to buy, purchase or otherwise acquire or take a pledge of) any of the Shares except in compliance with the Securities Act, applicable state securities laws and the respective rules and regulations promulgated thereunder; (iv) the Investor will notify the Company immediately of any change in any of such information until such time as the Investor has sold all of its Shares or until the Company is no longer required to keep the Registration Statement effective; and (v) the Investor has, in connection with its decision to purchase the number of Shares set forth on the signature page hereto, relied only upon the Company Information provided to the Investor by the Company in contemplation of this offering and the representations and warranties of the Company contained herein. Investor understands that its acquisition of the Shares has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or registered or qualified under any state securities law in reliance on specific exemptions therefrom, which exemptions may depend upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the Investor's investment intent as expressed herein.
The Investor acknowledges, represents and agrees that no action has been or will be taken in any jurisdiction outside the United States by the Company that would permit an offering of the Shares, or possession or distribution of offering materials in connection with the issue of the Shares, in any jurisdiction outside the United States where action for that purpose is required.
The Investor hereby covenants with the Company not to make any Disposition of the Shares (i) without complying with the provisions of this Agreement, including Sections 7.2 and 5.5 hereof, and (ii) without effectively causing the prospectus delivery requirement under the Securities Act to be satisfied (unless sold pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act), and the Investor acknowledges that the certificates evidencing the Shares will be imprinted with a legend that prohibits their transfer except in accordance therewith. The Investor acknowledges that there may occasionally be times when the Company, based on the advice of its counsel and subject to the provisions of Section 7.2(c), determines that it must suspend the use of the Prospectus forming a part of the Registration Statement until such time as an amendment to the Registration Statement has been filed by the Company and declared effective by the SEC or until the Company has amended or supplemented such Prospectus.
The Investor has all requisite power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement, and this Agreement has been duly authorized and validly executed and delivered by the Investor and constitutes the legal, valid and binding agreement of the Investor enforceable against the Investor in accordance with its terms, except as rights to indemnity and contribution may be limited by state or federal securities laws or the public policy underlying such laws, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors' and contracting parties' rights generally and except as enforceability may be subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).
Investor has not and will not, prior to the earlier of (i) the 1 year anniversary of the Closing, and (ii) the effectiveness of the Registration Statement (such earlier date, the "Restriction Date"), sell, offer to sell, solicit offers to buy, dispose of, loan, pledge or grant any right with respect to (collectively, a "Disposition"), any Shares, nor will Investor engage in any hedging or other transaction which is designed to or could reasonably be expected to lead to or result in a Disposition of Shares by the Investor or any other person or entity. Such prohibited hedging or other transactions would include, without limitation, effecting any short sale or having in effect any short position (whether or not such sale or position is against the box and regardless of when such position was entered into) or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including, without limitation, any put or call option) with respect to Shares or with respect to any security (other than a broad-based market basket or index) that includes, relates to or derives any significant part of its value from Shares.
The Investor understands that nothing in this Agreement or any other materials presented to the Investor in connection with the purchase and sale of the Shares constitutes legal, tax or investment advice. The Investor has consulted such legal, tax and investment advisors as it, in its sole discretion, has deemed necessary or appropriate in connection with its purchase of Shares.
The Investor is not and will not be obligated for any finder's or broker's fee or commission in connection with this Agreement or any of the transaction contemplated hereby.
Notwithstanding any investigation made by any party to this Agreement, all representations and warranties made by the Company and the Investor herein shall survive the execution of this Agreement, the delivery to the Investor of the Shares being purchased and the payment therefor and shall in no way be affected by any investigation of the subject matter thereof made by or on behalf of any Investor, its counsel or the Company, as the case may be, but shall terminate on the date which is 60 days after the filing of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002 with the SEC. All covenants made by the Company and the Investor herein shall survive the execution of this Agreement, the delivery to the Investor of the Shares being purchased and the payment therefor.
The Company shall:
It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to this Section 7.1 that the Investors shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the Shares to be sold by Investors, and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be required to effect the registration of the Shares.
The conditions precedent imposed by Section 5 hereof or this Section 7 upon the transferability of the Shares shall cease and terminate as to any particular number of the Shares when such Shares shall have been effectively registered under the Securities Act and sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with the intended method of disposition set forth in the Registration Statement covering such Shares or at such time as an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company shall have been rendered to the effect that such conditions are not necessary in order to comply with the Securities Act.
Each Investor's obligations under this Agreement at the Closing shall be subject to the following conditions, any one or more of which may be waived by the Investor:
Each of the representations and warranties of the Company contained in Section 4 shall be true and correct on and as of the Closing with the same effect as though such representations and warranties had been made on and as of the date of the Closing except for such changes that have not had, or would not be reasonably likely to have, a Material Adverse Effect.
The Company shall have performed and complied with all agreements, obligations and conditions contained in this Agreement that are required to be performed or complied with by it on or before the Closing.
For each Investor currently possessing a contractual right to attend meetings of the Company's Board of Directors in a non-voting fashion, the Company shall have executed and delivered a side letter agreement with such Investor extending such right until the earlier of (i) 24 months from the Closing Date, and (ii) the date on which such Investor holds no shares of the Company's capital stock, and such side letter agreement shall be acknowledged and agreed to by such Investor.
All authorizations, approvals or permits, if any, of any governmental authority or regulatory body of the United States or of any state or of any third party that are required in connection with the lawful issuance and sale of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby shall have been obtained and effective as of or prior to the Closing.
Investors shall have purchased at the Closing Shares in the amount of at least $18,200,000; provided, however, that no Investor that breaches its obligation to purchase Shares shall be entitled to assert this condition as a defense to its obligations hereunder.
The Company's obligations under this Agreement at the Closing shall be subject to the following conditions, any one or more of which may be waived by the Company:
Each of the representations and warranties of such Investor contained in Section 5 shall be true and correct on and as of the Closing with the same effect as though such representations and warranties had been made on and as of the date of the Closing except for such changes that have not had, or would not be reasonably likely to have, a material adverse effect on such Investor's ability to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.
Such Investor shall have performed and complied with all agreements, obligations and conditions contained in this Agreement that are required to be performed or complied with by it on or before the Closing.
All authorizations, approvals or permits, if any, of any governmental authority or regulatory body of the United States or of any state or of any third party that are required in connection with the lawful issuance and sale of the Shares pursuant to this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby shall have been obtained and effective as of or prior to the Closing.
Investors shall have purchased at the Closing Shares in the amount of at least $18,200,000.
For each Investor currently possessing a contractual right to attend meetings of the Company's Board of Directors in a non-voting fashion, the Company shall have executed and delivered a side letter agreement with such Investor extending such right until the earlier of (i) 24 months from the Closing Date, and (ii) the date on which such Investor holds no shares of the Company's capital stock, and such side letter agreement shall be acknowledged and agreed to by such Investor.
All notices, requests, consents and other communications hereunder shall be in writing, shall be mailed (A) if within domestic United States by first-class registered or certified airmail, or nationally recognized overnight express courier, postage prepaid, or by facsimile, or (B) if delivered from outside the United States, by International Federal Express or facsimile, and shall be deemed given (i) if delivered by first-class registered or certified mail domestic, three business days after so mailed, (ii) if delivered by nationally recognized overnight carrier, one (1) business day after so mailed, (iii) if delivered by International Federal Express, two (2) business days after so mailed, (iv) if delivered by facsimile, upon electric confirmation of receipt and shall be delivered as addressed as follows:

Align Technology Signs Agreement for $18 Million
in Private Placement of Common Stock
Existing Investors Agree to Purchase 9.5 Million Shares
at a Premium to Market;
Company Affirms Guidance for Fourth Quarter 2002 and Full Year
2003
Santa Clara, Calif. - November 15, 2002 -- Align Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq: ALGN), the inventor of Invisalign®, a proprietary method of straightening teeth without wires and brackets, announced today that it has signed a definitive agreement for a private placement of common stock to a group of institutional investors led by existing shareholders, raising approximately
$18 million. The group of investors was led by The Carlyle Group of Washington, DC, Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers of Menlo Park, California, and Gund Investment Corporation, headquartered in Princeton, New Jersey.
The transaction involves the sale of 9.5 million newly issued shares of Align common stock at a price of $1.90 per share, a premium to the recent trading range of ALGN shares on Nasdaq. The shares will not be registered for resale with the Securities and Exchange Commission until one year from the closing date.
Align President and Chief Executive Officer Thomas M. Prescott said that the funds raised will be used primarily to fuel the continued growth of Invisalign in its core orthodontic and dental markets and for working capital needs as the company nears profitability during the coming quarters. The Company also expects to complete a revolving credit and equipment financing facility totaling approximately $10 - $15 million in the near future.
"We believe that this round of funding and the soon to be completed credit facility eliminate any perceived financing risk associated with our operation and will give us the capital structure necessary to execute our plan. The continued support of our existing shareholders and the overall quality of our institutional investor base demonstrate strong endorsement for our operational and marketing initiatives. The willingness of these institutions to invest at a premium to market price is a further indication of their confidence in the prospects of our products and our Company."
The Company has also reaffirmed existing financial guidance for the remainder of 2002 as well as 2003. More specifically, as stated in the October 24, 2002 investor conference call, the Company expects to achieve revenues of approximately $22 million in the fourth quarter 2002 and gross margins of 50 to 52 percent. This will bring total revenues for 2002 to approximately $75 million.
For 2003, the Company expects revenues of $100 to$105 million with gross margins exceeding 60 percent by the end of the year. With a diligent focus on spending throughout 2003, losses are expected to decline significantly throughout 2003, allowing the Company to achieve profitability by the fourth quarter of 2003. Projections provided do not include the effects of restructuring charges or stock-based compensation.
About Align Technology, Inc.
Align Technology designs, manufactures and markets Invisalign, a proprietary new method for treating malocclusion, or the misalignment of teeth. Invisalign corrects malocclusion using a series of clear, nearly invisible, removable appliances that gently move teeth to a desired final position. Because it does not rely on the use of metal or ceramic brackets and wires, Invisalign significantly reduces the aesthetic and other limitations associated with braces. Invisalign is appropriate for treating adults and older teens. Align Technology was founded in March 1997 and received FDA clearance to market Invisalign in 1998.
