Moelis & Company LLC
1999 Avenue of the Stars, 19th Floor
Los Angeles, CA 90067
Dear Mr. Aswani:
The purpose of this letter is to present the general terms and conditions upon which Rizvi Traverse Management LLC (“RT”) would be willing to acquire (the “Transaction”) RealD, Inc. (“RealD” or the “Company”).
RT is a private equity firm formed in 2005 that has managed over $5 billion of equity capital investments and has a successful track record in closing many complex transactions, including take-privates, in the media and entertainment industry. We believe that our experience and track record underscore our ability to provide certainty of closing and uniquely position us to be the preferred acquirer of RealD. Past examples of RT’s investments include ICM Partners, one of the talent agency industry “majors” and a leader in TV show packaging, Summit Entertainment, one of the largest independent film studios, SESAC, one of three US performing rights organizations representing songwriters and music publishers, and Playboy, one of the world’s most iconic brands. In addition to the foregoing companies, RT has made several investments in the technology and social media space including Twitter, Facebook, Flipboard, Square, Snapchat and Vessel.
RT’s proposed Transaction terms are set forth below.
Based on our review of the materials provided and discussions with management, we would be willing to consummate a Transaction on the following general terms and conditions:
1. Structure: An acquisition vehicle formed by RT will acquire 100% of the outstanding stock of the Company by means of a merger of a wholly owned subsidiary of such vehicle into the Company, with the Company surviving such merger.
2. Purchase Price: RT will acquire all of the outstanding shares of stock of the Company for $10.35 per fully diluted share in cash.
3. Financing: The Transaction will be fully financed via a combination of debt provided by Jefferies Finance LLC (a draft of the commitment letter in connection with such financing is attached as Annex A-1 hereto) and equity from RT and its affiliates (a draft of the commitment letter in connection with such equity financing is attached as
Annex A-2 hereto). An outline of our anticipated sources and uses of funds in connection with the Transaction is set forth below:
| ($millions) | | | | | |
| Sources of Funds | | Uses of Funds | |
| Senior Secured | | | | | |
| Financing | 280 | | Purchase Price | 556 | |
| | | | Debt | | |
| Net Cash | 57 | | Repayment | 41 | |
| | | | | | |
| Equity | 283 | | Deal Costs | 23 | |
| | | | | | |
| Total | 620 | | Total | 620 | |
4. Due Diligence; Michael Lewis: As previously discussed, our proposal is subject to the completion of our final confirmatory legal and tax due diligence review (including with respect to those outstanding diligence matters listed on Annex B attached hereto). We have committed (and will be in a position to further commit) significant resources to completing such review in a timely manner, and in no event later than November 6, 2015 (provided that the Company agrees to the exclusivity obligations described in paragraph 10 below and such outstanding diligence matters are addressed promptly following the date hereof), and without causing undue delay to the negotiation and execution of definitive Transaction documentation. Further, our proposal is subject to reaching agreement with Michael Lewis prior to the execution of the definitive Merger Agreement regarding the rollover and voting of his existing shares of stock of the Company and his continued employment by RealD following the consummation of the Transaction.
5. Required Approvals: RT’s internal investment committee has approved the submission of this updated offer letter. RT’s investment committee is comprised of RT private equity professionals and does not require any external approvals. Based on the information reviewed to date, RT is unaware of any required regulatory or third party approvals other than filings under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act.
6. Documentation: The Transaction will be subject to the terms of a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) containing provisions consistent with those set forth in the auction draft of the Merger Agreement prepared by the Company’s counsel, as modified by the summary of proposed revisions attached as Annex C hereto and certain other customary provisions for transactions of this type.
7. Timing: We are prepared to move quickly to consummate the acquisition of the Company and have the necessary resources to complete our due diligence concurrently with the negotiation of the definitive Merger Agreement, which we expect the parties to be in a position to execute (together with the executed financing commitment letters and Mr. Lewis’ definitive documentation) no later than November 6, 2015. Further,
2
assuming delivery of the Company’s third fiscal quarter 2015 financial statements by January 15, 2016, we anticipate closing the Transaction no later than 30 days thereafter.

9. Fees and Expenses: Each of RT and the Company will bear its own fees and expenses incurred in connection with the proposed Transaction, subject to the provisions of paragraph 10 hereof.
10. Exclusivity; Expense Reimbursement. As a condition to RT’s willingness to continue its diligence and discussions with the Company with respect to a possible Transaction, we expect that the Company will by separate agreement (the form of which has been separately provided to you) agree to (i) negotiate exclusively with RT for the period and subject to the terms set forth therein and (ii) reimburse RT for any out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by RT and its affiliates in relation to their due diligence of the Company and its business and the negotiation and preparation of the Merger Agreement and the other Transaction documents as promptly as practicable following RT’s written demand therefor.
11. Confidentiality: Each of RT and the Company acknowledges the confidential nature of this letter, the terms of RT’s offer set forth herein and Transaction process as a whole.
12. Miscellaneous: Except as provided in this paragraph and paragraphs 9 and 11 above, this letter does not create a binding commitment or agreement in any respect. Such a binding commitment or agreement shall only occur upon the execution by the parties of a definitive agreement regarding the Transaction.

In order to induce Buyer to engage in the substantial efforts, including with respect to due diligence and negotiations, necessary in connection with its review of the proposed Transaction, we request that the Company, by its signature below, confirm its agreement (which the Company intends to be legally binding) with the terms of this letter agreement as set forth below.

2. Exclusivity.
a) During the Exclusivity Period, the Company shall negotiate in good faith exclusively with Buyer with respect to a Transaction and the Company shall not, and shall cause its Representatives not to, directly or indirectly, initiate, solicit, or respond to any Offer, engage in any discussions, negotiations or other communications with any person or group other than Buyer (and its Representatives acting on its behalf) concerning or relating to any Alternative Transaction, provide any person or group other than Buyer (and its Representatives acting on its behalf) with any information relating to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or their respective assets in furtherance of any Offer or Alternative Transaction, enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding with any person or group other than Buyer relating to, or consummate, any Alternative Transaction, or otherwise cooperate in any way, assist or participate in, or take any action to facilitate or encourage any effort or attempt by any person or group (other than Buyer) to make an Offer or otherwise seek to effect an Alternative Transaction.

c) In the event that the Company or any of its Representatives receives an Offer or any inquiry concerning any Alternative Transaction, the Company shall (i) within 24 hours of such receipt, inform the third party in writing (with a concurrent copy to Buyer) that it is bound by an exclusivity agreement and shall cease any further contact, and (ii) within 24 hours of receipt of any such Offer or inquiry, or other communication or written document (including emails) with respect thereto, provide Buyer with a complete and correct copy of each such written document (and a summary of the material terms of any oral Offer).
3. Expense Reimbursement. Each party will bear its own fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Transaction, except as provided below or in a Definitive Agreement executed by the parties.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, after consultation with the other party, a party may at any time make disclosure if such disclosure is required under applicable law or by a regulatory authority or a stock exchange. This provision is in addition to any obligations of the parties set forth in the Confidentiality Agreement dated as of April 14, 2015 by and between the Buyer and the Company (the “Confidentiality Agreement”). It is expressly understood that neither Buyer nor the Company is obligated to proceed with the Transaction and that no binding agreement with respect to the Transaction (except as expressly set forth herein, with respect to which this letter agreement will be a valid and binding agreement, and except for the Confidentiality Agreement) will exist unless and until such time as a Definitive Agreement has been executed by the parties.

The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any provision of this letter agreement was not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that the parties shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof (without the need to post any bond), in addition to any other remedy at law or in equity.

Confidential
Project Rhombus Agreement and Plan of Merger
Summary of Proposed Revisions – October 12, 2015
The following summarizes certain changes that would be requested by an acquisition vehicle to be formed by Rizvi Traverse Management LLC or an affiliate thereof (such vehicle, “Purchaser”) to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Agreement”) pursuant to which Purchaser would acquire all of the outstanding equity securities of the Company by means of a merger of a wholly owned subsidiary of Purchaser into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meaning given to them in the Agreement. The summary below is a high-level summary of certain of Purchaser’s proposed revisions and does not include all revisions that would be made to the Agreement. In addition, Purchaser must complete confirmatory due diligence and may consider additional revisions to the Agreement after completion of such due diligence and review of the Company Disclosure Letter.
Article I: Timing of Closing
· Closing: The Closing should not occur prior to the second Business Day following the final day of the Marketing Period.
· Marketing Period: The Marketing Period should not commence until the conditions to Closing set forth in Sections 6.01 and 6.02 have been satisfied (other than those which by their terms are to be satisfied at Closing) and should extend for any period during which the Required Information is not “Compliant” (to be defined in a manner customary for sponsor transactions of this type). The Marketing Period will only end prematurely in the event that the Debt Financing proceeds are funded to Purchaser.
Article II: Rollover; Treatment of Company Equity Awards
· Rollover: The Agreement will need to be revised to reflect the proposed contribution of shares of Common Stock held by Michael Lewis to Purchaser pursuant to the terms of a Contribution and Support Agreement in exchange for the issuance of shares of Purchaser at the Closing on a tax-deferred basis.
· Company Equity Awards: Treatment of Company Equity Awards is subject to completion of Purchaser’s review of Company equity plans and award agreements.
Article III: Company Representations and Warranties
· Generally: Several reps and warranties should be expanded to include additional customary provisions, including Section 3.02 (Capital Stock), Section 3.06 (Absence of Certain Changes), Section 3.09 (Tax Matters), Section 3.10 (Employee Benefits), Section 3.13 (Intellectual Property), and Section 3.16 (Material Contracts), and a three-year look-back should be added to reps and warranties where customary (e.g., Section 3.08 (Compliance with Laws)). Other customary representations and warranties to be added, including with respect to insurance, real and personal property, customer/exhibitor relationships and related party transactions.
Article V: Certain Covenants
· No Solicitation; Change in Recommendation (Section 5.02):
o No Solicitation: Fiduciary determination to be made before exercising window-shop exemption, and the Company should cause its Representatives to comply with the terms of the no-shop covenant (i.e., no efforts standard).
o “Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement”: Purchaser expects that an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement will contain a standstill provision consistent with Purchaser’s Confidentiality Agreement.
o “Adverse Recommendation Change”: Definition should be expanded to include any change, amendment, modification or qualification to (or public proposal to change, amend, modify or qualify) the Company Board Recommendation, failure to include the Company Board Recommendation in the Proxy Statement, failure of the Company Board of Directors to reaffirm the Company Board Recommendation upon Purchaser’s request, or in the event of any tender offer or exchange offer for outstanding shares of Company common stock, failure of the Company Board of Directors to recommend against the acceptance of such offer.
o Fiduciary Standard: The Company Board of Directors’ should only be permitted to effect an Adverse Recommendation Change or enter into a Company Acquisition Agreement in the event that the Board is required to do so to comply with the directors’ fiduciary duties to the Company’s stockholders under applicable Law.
o Standard for “Superior Proposal”: A Superior Proposal should be limited to a transaction that is reasonably likely to be consummated in accordance with its terms and, if so consummated, would result in a transaction more favorable to its stockholders from a financial point of view than the proposed transaction with Purchaser.
o Intervening Events: The Company Board of Directors should not be permitted to make any Adverse Recommendation Change other than in connection with a Superior Proposal, except for circumstances not involving a Takeover Proposal that are due to material events occurring after the execution of the Agreement that are not known or reasonably foreseeable as of the signing date.
o Matching Right; Last Look: Purchaser should be provided with four Business Days’ notice prior to any Adverse Recommendation Change (including in connection with the proposed acceptance of a Superior Proposal or due to an intervening event), during which time Purchaser would be afforded the opportunity to negotiate with the Company and revise its offer. In the event of any revisions made to a proposed Superior Proposal thereafter, Purchaser should be afforded an additional two Business Days to further negotiate with the Company and revise its offer.
· Indemnification and Insurance (Section 5.07): Indemnification of Company directors and officers should be limited to the six year period following the Closing and should be the obligation of the Surviving Corporation, not the Purchaser.
· Employee Matters (Section 5.09): Purchaser’s obligation to continue Company Employee compensation and benefits levels should be limited to base salary and health/welfare and
retirement benefits (and excluding any existing equity arrangements), measured on an aggregate basis (not on a case-by-case basis).
· Third Party Consent Fees (Section 5.04(e)): Purchaser’s agreement to bear responsibility for all fees and payments to third parties in order to obtain approvals (other than HSR) is subject to completion of Purchaser’s confirmatory diligence of required approvals.
Article VI: Conditions Precedent
· Representations and Warranties: The Company’s representations and warranties as set forth in Section 3.01 (Organization and Standing; Subsidiaries), Section 3.02 (Capital Stock), clauses (a) and (b) of Section 3.03 (Authority), Section 3.04 (Voting Requirements), Section 3.14 (Rights Agreement; Anti-Takeover Provisions) and Section 3.18 (Brokers and Other Advisors) should be required to be true and correct in all respects, subject only to de minimis inaccuracies (with equivalent requirements for Purchaser’s representations and warranties, where applicable). The parties’ representations and warranties should be required to be true and correct as of the signing date as well as the Closing Date.
Article VII: Termination
· Termination Events: Purchaser should be entitled to terminate the Agreement as a result of the Company’s material breach of its covenants under Sections 5.02 (No Solicitation; Change in Recommendation) or 5.03 (Preparation of the Proxy Statement; Stockholders’ Meeting). The Company should not be permitted to terminate the Agreement in order to enter into a Superior Proposal if the Company has breached its covenants under Section 5.02.
· Company Termination Fee: A termination fee equal to 4% of equity value (which will not be liquidated damages) will be payable to the Purchaser by the Company upon the occurrence of the following events:
o Termination by Parent due to an Adverse Recommendation Change or the Company’s material breach of its covenants under Sections 5.02 or 5.03;
o Termination by the Company in order to enter into a Superior Proposal;
o Termination by the Company or Purchaser following the failure to obtain the Company Stockholder Approval if an Adverse Recommendation Change has occurred prior to such termination; and
o Termination by Purchaser due to a breach of the Company’s representations, warranties or covenants resulting in a closing condition failure, or termination by Purchaser or the Company due to the failure to obtain the Company Stockholder Approval or the failure to close on or prior to the End Date, in each case, where a Takeover Proposal was made prior to such termination and a definitive agreement is entered into in connection with a Takeover Proposal (or a Takeover Proposal is consummated) with 12 months following such termination (payable on the earlier of signing and closing such transaction).
· Purchaser Expense Reimbursement: In the event that the Agreement is terminated due to a failure to obtain the Company Stockholder Approval, Purchaser should be entitled to reimbursement of all out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred in connection with the proposed transaction up to 1%
of equity value, which would be netted out of any termination fee subsequently paid in the tail period.
· Effect of Termination: Termination does not provide relief from liability for willful and material breach prior to termination.
· Purchaser Termination Fee: Purchaser Termination Fee to equal 5% of equity value. The Company’s right to terminate due to Purchaser’s failure to close should require that the Marketing Period has ended and the Company has provided Purchaser with two Business Days’ notice of its readiness, willingness and ability to close and the Company must stand ready, willing and able to close through the end of such two Business Day period (with Purchaser failing to close during such two Business Day period). Purchaser expects to include customary liability-limiting language in favor of Purchaser, its affiliates and the Lenders and other Equity Investors such that the Purchaser Termination Fee is the only monetary recourse payable by Purchaser, its affiliates and the Lenders and other Equity Investors in connection with the Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby, other than in connection with expense reimbursement relating to Purchaser’s proposed financing and breaches of the Confidentiality Agreement.
· Payment of Interest: In the event that either the Company or Purchaser fails to pay any applicable termination fee, any interest payment should be limited to the Wall Street Journal prime rate.
Article VIII: Definitions
· “Knowledge”: Standard for knowledge should be set at actual knowledge of the applicable knowledge persons (subject to Purchaser’s review of the Company Disclosure Letter) following reasonable inquiry.
· “Company Material Adverse Effect”: Definition should be revised to take into account the impact of any effects, changes, events, circumstances or occurrences measured both individually and in the aggregate with all other effects, changes, events, circumstances and occurrences. The disproportionate adverse effect qualification should not include a materiality requirement and should also include clause (C) of the definition (changes in applicable Law, GAAP or accounting standards).
