Just for reference, $$F[e^{-ax}]=\frac{1}{a+iw}$$. Now I've got no idea why in the second step the Heaviside function is introduced(underlined), since here a=2/3 wouldn't the inverse transform just be $$e^{-\frac{2}{3}x}$$ times the constant 1/3?
The exponential expression doesn't hold if x is negative, that's why the Heaviside function is there.
