This excerpt taken from the NDAQ DEF 14A filed Apr 21, 2006. Investor Rights Agreement
In connection with our separation from NASD, in 2002 we entered into an investor rights agreement with NASD, pursuant to which we granted NASD registration rights with respect to the outstanding shares of Series C cumulative preferred stock and the shares of common stock underlying the warrants referred to below issued by NASD in two private placements in 2000 and 2001. In addition, the terms of the investor rights agreement gave NASD the ability to direct that we allow NASD members to subscribe to purchase up to 10,295,403 shares of common stock in the event that we conducted an initial public offering of our common stock for cash. On February 15, 2006 we sold participating NASD members 206,700 shares of common stock in a directed share program as part of a public offering in full satisfaction of this obligation.
