| Re: | Governance Letter Agreement (this “Agreement”) |
Ladies and Gentlemen:
This Agreement is entered into as of the date first written above by and between Identiv, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Bleichroeder LP (“Bleichroeder”). This Agreement is being executed and delivered concurrently with the execution of the Voting and Support Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, by and between the Company, Trackonomy Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Buyer”), and Bleichroeder (the “Voting Agreement”), and the Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of the date hereof between the Company and Buyer (the “Purchase Agreement”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the Purchase Agreement.
In consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:
| 1. | Nasdaq. The Company will include as a proposal in its upcoming proxy statement stockholder approval for Bleichroeder to have the ability to convert all of its Series B Preferred Stock (i.e., in excess of 19.9% of the Company’s outstanding stock as of the original investment) and to exceed 19.9% of the Company’s outstanding stock generally (i.e., Nasdaq change of control approval) (the “Stockholder Approval”). The Company shall solicit proxies from its stockholders in connection therewith in the same manner as all other management proposals in such proxy statement and all management-appointed proxyholders shall vote their proxies in favor of such proposal. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Stockholder Approval and, if the Company does not obtain Stockholder Approval at the first meeting, the Company shall include the proposal for Stockholder Approval in any proxy statement thereafter for a special meeting of stockholders or annual meeting of stockholders, and the provisions of this section shall apply to such proposal, mutatis mutandis. |
| 2. | DGCL 203. The Company acknowledges that Bleichroeder has been the holder of greater than fifteen percent (15%) of the outstanding capital stock of the Company for a period of more than three years for purposes of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. As a result, the restrictions on business combinations with interested stockholders set forth in such Section 203 are no longer applicable to Bleichroeder. |
| 3. | Governance Matters. |
| (a) | Bylaws. The Company will not take any action to amend or modify the bylaws of the Company so as to prevent, or impair or delay the ability of, stockholders holding ten percent (10%) or more of the outstanding capital stock of the Company from calling a special meeting of stockholders for a period of three (3) years from the date of this Agreement. |
| (b) | Consultation Right re Shareholder Distributions. Prior to making any dividend or distribution to stockholders, or repurchasing shares from stockholders (by way of tender offer, open market repurchases or otherwise) or otherwise providing liquidity to Company stockholders, the Company shall consult reasonably with Bleichroeder and consider in good faith Bleichroeder’s position with respect thereto. |
| (c) | Board of Directors. Bleichroeder will be entitled to nominate one individual for election to the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) who is reasonably acceptable to the then-current members of the Board (with Andrew Gundlach deemed to be reasonably acceptable). The Company will continue to be obligated to nominate such designee for election to the Board at its annual meetings for so long as Bleichroeder holds at least twenty percent (20%) of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company (including for this purpose securities convertible into Common Stock without giving effect to any conversion limitations applicable to the Series B Preferred Stock). In the event Bleichroeder’s ownership of Common Stock of the Company increases to forty percent (40%) or more of the outstanding Common Stock, it shall be entitled to nominate a second director for election to the Board (who is reasonably acceptable to the then-current members of the Board) at each annual meeting of stockholders. The Company will nominate such designees in connection with its annual meeting of stockholders and shall use its reasonable best efforts (which shall include the solicitation of proxies and it being understood that such efforts shall not be less than the efforts used by the Company to obtain the election of any other independent director nominee nominated by it to serve as a director) to obtain the election of any such director nominees. The Board shall not take any action to remove, or cause to be removed, any Bleichroeder designees and if any Bleichroeder designee resigns or ceases to serve for any reason and Bleichroeder continues to be entitled to nominate such designee under the terms of this Agreement, then Bleichroeder shall be entitled to designate a replacement director who shall be reasonably acceptable to the then-current members of the Board. If so requested by Bleichroeder, the Board shall appoint and maintain the Bleichroeder designee(s) then serving on the Board to any existing or newly created committee of the Board that is designated to review or oversee strategic alternatives for the Company, subject to customary recusal requests in the event of any potential conflict of interest. |
| (d) | Independence of Board and Committees. Bleichroeder acknowledges and agrees that the Board and all committees of the Board shall at all times meet the applicable independence requirements of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC and the Securities and Exchange Commission. |
| (e) | Proportional Voting above Threshold. In the event that Bleichroeder acquires in excess of 40% of the voting stock of the Company (the “Threshold”), Bleichroeder agrees that at any regular or special meeting of stockholders, the shares held by Bleichroeder in excess of the Threshold shall be voted in the same proportion as to each proposal as the shares held by stockholders other than Bleichroeder that are voted at such meeting. This provision shall apply for as long as the Threshold is met. |
| 4. | Miscellaneous. |
| (a) | Successors and Assigns. This Agreement may not be assigned by either party without the prior written consent of the other party. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective permitted successors and assigns of the parties. |

Each of the parties hereby agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by U.S. registered mail to the respective addresses set forth in in Section VI.e) shall be effective service of process for any Proceeding in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. |
