We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our
directors, executive officers and certain other officers. These
agreements require us to indemnify such individuals, to the
fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, for certain
liabilities to which they may become subject as a result of
their affiliation with us.
All contracts with related parties are at rates and terms that
we believe are comparable with those entered into with
independent third parties. There were no material related party
transactions in 2006, 2007 and 2008. As of December 31,
2008, there were no significant amounts payable or amounts
receivable from related parties.
We are authorized, subject to limitations prescribed by Delaware
law to issue Preferred Stock in one or more series; to establish
the number of shares included within each series; to fix the
rights, preferences and privileges of the shares of each wholly
unissued series and any related qualifications, limitations or
restrictions; and to increase or decrease the number of shares
of any series (but not below the number of shares of a series
then outstanding) without any further vote or action by the
stockholders. At December 31, 2007 and 2008, there were
10 million shares of $0.001 par value Preferred Stock
authorized for issuance, and no shares issued or outstanding.
Our Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, authorizes us to
issue 3.6 billion shares of common stock. A portion of the
shares issued and outstanding are subject to repurchase or
forfeiture over a four-year period from the earlier of the
issuance date or employee hire date, as applicable. At
December 31, 2008 there were 154,892 shares subject to
repurchase rights or forfeiture, respectively.
