The Trustee hereby agrees to administer and distribute, in accordance with the provisions hereof, the Newegg Shares, together with any other property acceptable to the Trustee that anyone from time to time may add to the Trust.

7. Right of First Refusal.

A. Grant of Right of First Refusal.

B. Notice of Proposed Transfer. Prior to any proposed transfer of the Transfer Shares, the Grantee shall deliver written notice (the “Transfer Notice”) to the Trust describing fully the proposed transfer, including the number of Transfer Shares, the name and address of the proposed transferee (the “Proposed Transferee”) and, if the transfer is voluntary, the proposed transfer price, and containing such information necessary to show the bona fide nature of the proposed transfer. In the event of a bona fide gift or involuntary transfer, the proposed transfer price shall be deemed to be the fair market value of the Transfer Shares. If Grantee proposes to transfer any Transfer Shares to more than one Proposed Transferee, Grantee shall provide a separate Transfer Notice for the proposed transfer to each Proposed Transferee. The Transfer Notice shall be signed by both Grantee and the Proposed Transferee and must constitute a binding commitment of Grantee and the Proposed Transferee for the transfer of the Transfer Shares to the Proposed Transferee subject only to the Right of First Refusal.

C. Bona Fide Transfer. If the Trust determines that the information provided by Grantee in the Transfer Notice is insufficient to establish the bona fide nature of a proposed voluntary transfer, the Trust shall give Grantee written notice of Grantee’s failure to comply with the procedure described in this Section 7, and Grantee shall have no right to transfer the Transfer Shares without first complying with the procedure described in this Section 7. Grantee shall not be permitted to transfer the Transfer Shares if the proposed transfer is not bona fide.

D. Exercise of Right of First Refusal. If the Trust determines the proposed transfer to be bona fide, the Trust shall have the right to purchase all, but any or all, of the Transfer Shares at the purchase price and on the terms set forth in the Transfer Notice by delivery to Grantee of a notice of exercise of the Right of First Refusal within thirty (30) days after the date the Transfer Notice is delivered to the Trust. The Trust’s exercise or failure to exercise the Right of First Refusal with respect to any proposed transfer described in a Transfer Notice shall not affect the Trust’s right to exercise the Right of First Refusal with respect to any proposed transfer described in any other Transfer Notice, whether or not such other Transfer Notice is issued by Grantee or issued by a person other than Grantee with respect to a proposed transfer to the same Proposed Transferee. If the Trust exercises the Right of First Refusal, the Trust and the Grantee shall thereupon consummate the sale of the Transfer Shares to the Trust on the terms set forth in the Transfer Notice within sixty (60) days after the date the Transfer Notice is delivered to the Trust (unless a longer period is offered by the Proposed Transferee); provided, however, that in the event the Transfer Notice provides for the payment for the Transfer Shares other than in cash, the Trust shall have the option of paying for the Transfer Shares by the present value cash equivalent of the consideration described in the Transfer Notice as reasonably determined by the Trust. For purposes of the foregoing, cancellation of any indebtedness of Grantee to the Trust shall be treated as payment to Grantee in cash to the extent of the unpaid principal and any accrued interest canceled.

E. Failure to Exercise Right of First Refusal. If the Trust fails to exercise the Right of First Refusal within the period specified in Paragraph 7.D., Grantee may conclude a transfer to the Proposed Transferee of the Transfer Shares on the terms and conditions described in the Transfer Notice, provided such transfer occurs not later than ninety (90) days following delivery to the Trust of the Transfer Notice. The Trust shall have the right to demand further assurances from Grantee and the Proposed Transferee (in a form satisfactory to the Trust) that the transfer of the Transfer Shares was actually carried out on the terms and conditions described in the Transfer Notice. No Transfer Shares shall be transferred on the books of the Trust until the Trust has received such assurances, if so demanded, and has approved the proposed transfer as bona fide. Any proposed transfer on terms and conditions different from those described in the Transfer Notice, as well as any subsequent proposed transfer by Grantee, shall again be subject to the Right of First Refusal and compliance by Grantee with the procedure described in this Section 7.

F. Transferees of Transfer Shares. All transferees of the Transfer Shares or any interest therein, other than the Trust, shall be required as a condition of such transfer to agree in writing (in a form satisfactory to the Trust) that such transferee shall receive and hold such Transfer Shares or interest therein subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including this Section 7 providing for the Right of First Refusal with respect to any subsequent transfer. Any sale or transfer of any Vested Newegg Shares shall be void unless the provisions of this Section 7 are met.

G. Assignment of Right of First Refusal. The Trust shall have the right to assign the Right of First Refusal at any time, whether or not there has been an attempted transfer, to one or more persons as may be selected by the Trust.

H. Early Termination of Right of First Refusal. The other provisions of this Agreement notwithstanding, the Right of First Refusal shall terminate and be of no further force and effect upon (i) an Acquisition of Newegg, (ii) the public offering of Newegg Shares or (iii) the dissolution of the Trust.

8. Employment at Will. This Agreement is not intended to confer any right to employment with the Trust or Affiliate, and Grantee’s employment with an Affiliate shall remain “at will” unless expressly provided otherwise in a written agreement between Grantee and the Affiliate.

9. Withholding of Taxes. If required, payments under this Agreement will be reduced as necessary to pay withholding and payroll taxes and other deductions required by law.

10. Parachute Payment Limitation-Code Sections 280G and 4999. In the event that any payments to which Grantee becomes entitled in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement would otherwise constitute a parachute payment under Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (as amended) (the “Code”), then such payments shall be subject to reduction to the extent necessary to assure that Grantee receive the greater of (i) the amount of those payments which would not constitute such a parachute payment or (ii) the amount which yields Grantee the greatest after-tax amount of benefits after taking into account any excise tax imposed on the payments provided to Grantee under this Agreement (or on any other parachute payments to which Grantee may be entitled) under Section 4999 of the Code.

11. No Assignment of Benefits. Except as set forth in Section 5 or in the event of Grantee’s death, neither the Restricted Newegg Shares, the Newegg Shares nor any other benefits under this Agreement are assignable or transferable by Grantee. In the event of Grantee’s death, the rights of Grantee under this Agreement shall transfer to Grantee’s legal representative or any person empowered under the deceased Grantee’s will or under the then applicable laws of descent and distribution.

12. Code Section 409A. It is intended that payments under this Agreement satisfy, to the greatest extent possible, the exemption from the application of Section 409A of the Code (and any state law of similar effect) provided under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-l(b)(4) (as a “short-term deferral”). To the extent not so exempt, it is intended that payments under the Agreement comply with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(iv)(A) (applicable to “transaction-based compensation”).

13. Administration. This Agreement will be interpreted and administered by the Trustees of the Trust or a duly authorized committee of the Trustees. Any reference to the Trustees in this Agreement will be construed as a reference to the committee of the Trustees (if any) to whom the Trustees have assigned a particular function. The determinations of the Trustees with regard to this Agreement will be final and binding

14. Mutual Cooperation. The Trust and Grantee will cooperate with each other as much as possible, including signing any documentation necessary or appropriate.

15. Amendment of Agreement. The Trust may amend this Agreement without Grantee’s consent to the extent necessary or desirable to comply with applicable law. Otherwise, this Agreement may be amended by means of a written document signed by Grantee and the Trustee.

16. Adjustments for Changes in Capital Structure of Newegg. In the event of any change in the Newegg Shares effected without receipt of consideration by Newegg, whether through merger, consolidation, reorganization, reincorporation, recapitalization, reclassification, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, split-up, split-off, spin-off, combination of shares, exchange of shares, or similar change in the capital structure of Newegg, or in the event of payment of a dividend or distribution to the shareholders of Newegg in a form other than stock (excepting normal cash dividends) that has a material effect on the fair market value of the Newegg Shares, appropriate and proportionate adjustments shall be made in the number of Restricted Newegg Shares and/or Newegg Shares subject to this Agreement in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of Grantee’s rights under the Agreement.

17. Lock-Up Agreement. Grantee hereby agrees that in the event of any underwritten public offering of Newegg Shares, including an initial public offering of stock, made by Newegg pursuant to an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act, Grantee shall not offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, hypothecate, grant any option to purchase or make any short sale of, or otherwise dispose of any Newegg Shares or any rights to acquire Newegg Shares for such period of time from and after the effective date of such registration statement as may be established by the underwriter for such public offering. The foregoing limitation shall not apply to shares registered in the public offering under the Securities Act. Grantee hereby agrees to enter into any agreement reasonably required by the underwriters to implement the foregoing within a reasonable timeframe if so requested by Newegg

18. Restrictions on the Issuance of Shares. The issuance of Newegg Shares shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of federal, state or foreign law with respect to such securities. Newegg Shares may not be issued to Grantee if the issuance of Newegg Shares would constitute a violation of any applicable federal, state or foreign securities laws or other law or regulations or the requirements of any stock exchange or market system upon which the Newegg Shares may then be listed. The inability of Newegg or the Trust to obtain from any regulatory body having jurisdiction the authority, if any, deemed by the Trust’s legal counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance of Newegg Shares shall relieve the Trust of any liability in respect of the failure to issue such shares (or any proceeds derived therefrom) as to which such requisite authority shall not have been obtained.

19. Miscellaneous.

A. The Trust shall have the right to deduct amounts from the Newegg Shares sales proceeds in order to offset any obligations or amounts owed by Grantee to the Trust, whether by promissory note or otherwise. The payment(s) under this Agreement may be payable to Grantee on multiple occasions so long as Grantee holds Newegg Shares in the Grantee Share Account.

B. If any provision of this Agreement is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions of the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect without regard to such unenforceable provision and shall be applied as though the unenforceable provision were not contained in the Agreement.

C. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of California, without reference to the principles of conflict of laws.

D. This Agreement shall not create or convey any equity or ownership interest in the Trust, nor any rights commonly associated with any such interest, including, but not limited to, the right to vote on any matters before the Trust.

E. Captions and titles contained herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision of the Agreement. Except when otherwise indicated by the context, the singular shall include the plural and the plural shall include the singular. Use of the term “or” is not intended to be exclusive, unless the context clearly requires otherwise.
