officer of the Company has excluded works or inventions made prior to his
employment with the Company pursuant to such employee's or officer's Non-
Disclosure and Non-Competition Agreement.

(a) The Company hereby refers the Investors to Schedule 3.9(a), as

"Registration Statement"), which Schedule and risk factors modify all
representations made in this Section 3.9. A copy of the risk factors is annexed
hereto as Exhibit J. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.9(a), the Company has no
knowledge of any infringement by it or IDT of any third-party patents,
trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights, trade secrets, information
and other proprietary rights and processes necessary for the Business

Schedule 3.9(a), the Company is not aware of any obligation to make any payments
by way of royalties, fees or otherwise to any owner or licensor of, or other
claimant to, any patent, trademark, service ▇▇▇▇, trade name, copyright, trade
secret, information or other proprietary right, with respect to the use thereof,
or in connectio n with the conduct of the Business or otherwise other than
royalties, fees or other payments (i) that would not have a Material Adverse
Effect, (ii) arising from the purchase of "off the shelf" or standard products,
or (iii) that are paid or payable in connection with strategic relationships,
partnering agreements, bundling agreements, web linking agreements, agency
agreements, affiliation agreements or other similar business arrangements in the
ordinary course of the Business (excluding any such arrangements or agreements
that involve licenses or rights to technology used in the Company's generally
available product and service offerings). Except as set forth on Schedule
3.9(a), the Company is not aware of any third party that is infringing upon or
violating any of the Company's Intellectual Property Rights. The Company does
not believe it is necessary to utilize any patented inventions or trade secrets
of any of its employees made prior to their employment
by the Company, except for patented inventions or trade secrets that have been
assigned to the Company. Since the Company's organization, the Company and IDT,
taken together, have taken reasonable security measures to protect the secrecy,
confidentiality and value of the Company's trade secrets (except where the
failure to do so would not have a Material Adverse Effect).
(b) The Company has registered the URL addresses of the "▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇"
and "▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇" web sites (the "Web Sites") with the appropriate organizations.
The Company has not received any written communication from any person that any
Web Site is in violation of any law, rule or regulation or in conflict with any
patent, trademark, service ▇▇▇▇, trade name, copyright, trade secret, trade
dress, license or other proprietary right with respect thereto.
3.10. Compliance with Other Instruments. The Company is not in violation
---------------------------------
of any provision of its Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, each as amended
to date, or, to the Company's knowledge, in violation or default of any
provision of any instrument, judgment, order, writ, decree or contract to which
it is a party or by which it is bound or any provision of federal or state
statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Company, which violation or
default would have a Material Adverse Effect. The execution, delivery, and
performance of and compliance with this Agreement, and the Additional
Agreements, and the issuance and sale of the Series A Preferred and the Warrants
pursuant hereto and of the Conversion Shares pursuant to the Certificate of
Incorporation and the Warrant Shares, will not, with or without the passage of
time or giving of notice, result in any such material violation, or be in
conflict with or constitute a default under any such term, or result in the
creation of any mortgage, pledge, lien, encumbrance or charge upon any of the
properties or assets of the Company or the suspension, revocation, impairment,
forfeiture or nonrenewal of any permit, license, authorization or approval
applicable to the Company, its business or operations or any of its assets or
properties.
3.11. Disclosure. The Company has provided each Investor with true and
----------
complete copies of all documents and information requested by such Investor in
its due diligence review of the Company. Neither this Agreement, the Schedules
and Exhibits attached hereto, the Additional Agreements nor any certificate or
other document to be delivered by the Company at or prior to the Closing
contains or will contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
state a material fact necessary to make the statements herein or therein, in
light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading as of the
date hereof and thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Registration
Statement provided to each of the Investors was prepared by the management of
the Company in a good faith effort to describe the Company's presently proposed
business and products and the markets therefor. The assumptions applied in
preparing the Registration Statement appeared reasonable to management as of the
date thereof and as of the date hereof. No representations have been made to
the Investors as to the timing of the filing of the Registration Statement.
There are no facts which (individually or in the aggregate) would have a

applicable laws, the employment of each officer and employee of the Company is
terminable at the will of the Company. The carrying on of the Business by the
employees of the Company will not, to the best of the Company's knowledge,
conflict with or result in a breach of the terms, conditions or provisions of,
or constitute a default under, any contract, covenant or instrument under which
any such employees are now obligated. No employee of the Company has been
granted the right to continued employment by the Company or to any material
compensation following termination of employment with the Company. For purposes

following form:
"The shares represented by this certificate have not been
registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Act"), and may not be offered, sold or otherwise
transferred, pledged or hypothecated unless and until such shares
are registered under the Act or, except as otherwise permitted
pursuant to Rule 144 under the Act or another exemption from
registration under the Act or an opinion of counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the Company
is obtained to the effect that such registration is not required
and are subject to transfer restrictions as set forth in a
Subscription Agreement, dated May __, 1999, and the operative
agreements entered into in connection therewith, copies of which
may be obtained from the Company."
The foregoing legend, if necessary, shall be removed from the
certificates representing any Series A Preferred, Warrant, Warrant Shares and
Conversion Shares, at the request of the holder thereof, at such time as (i)
they are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement, (ii) they become
eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the Act or another provision
of Rule 144 of the Act pursuant to which all or a portion of such underlying
Common Shares could be sold in a single transaction, or (iii) an opinion of
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company is obtained to the effect that
the proposed transfer is exempt from the Act. The transfer agent for the
Securities will issue new Securities without the legend upon receipt of a
certificate from the Investor stating that the Securities have been registered
or transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act or
can be sold in reliance upon Rule 144 or the Company has received an opinion of
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company to the effect that the proposed
transfer is exempt from the Act.
9. Indemnification.
---------------
9.1. Company Indemnification. The Company covenants and agrees to defend,
-----------------------
indemnify and save and hold harmless each Investor, together with its officers,
directors, partners, shareholders, employees, trustees, affiliates (within the
meaning of Rule 405 of the SEC under the Act), beneficial owners, attorneys and
representatives, from and against any and all losses, costs, expenses,
liabilities, claims or legal damages (including, without limitation, reasonable
fees and disbursements of counsel and accountants and other costs and expenses
incident to any actual or threatened claim, suit, action or proceeding, whether
incurred in connection with a claim against the Company or a third party claim)
(collectively, "Investor Losses") up to the amount of such Investor's original
---------------
investment in the Private Placement (as set forth on Schedule A hereto) arising
out of or resulting from: (i) any inaccuracy in or breach of any
representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the Company in this
Agreement, any Additional Agreement or in any writing delivered pursuant to this
Agreement or at the Closing; (ii) the failure of the Company to perform or
observe fully any covenant, agreement or provision to be performed or observed
by it pursuant to this Agreement or any Additional Agreement; or (iii) any
actual or threatened claim, suit, action or proceeding arising out of or
resulting from the conduct by the Company of its Business or operations, or the
Company's occupancy or use of its properties or assets, on or prior to the
Closing Date; other than, with respect to an Investor. Investor Losses
resulting directly from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such
Investor or any of its respective officers, directors, employees, or any
affiliate within the meaning of Rule 405 of the SEC under the Act are not
covered under this Section 9.1; provided, however, that, if and to the extent
-------- -------
that such indemnification is unenforceable for any reason, the Company shall
make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such
indemnified liability which shall be permissible under applicable laws.
9.2. Investor Indemnification. Each Investor covenants and agrees, severally
------------------------
and not jointly, to defend, indemnify and save and hold harmless the Company,
together with its officers, directors, partners, shareholders, employees,
trustees, affiliates (within the meaning of Rule 405 of the SEC under the Act),
attorneys and representatives, from and against any and all losses, costs,
expenses, liabilities, claims or legal damages (including, without limitation,
reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and accountants and other costs and
expenses incident to any actual or threatened claim, suit, action or proceeding,
whether incurred in connection with a claim against any such Investor or a third
party claim) (collectively, "Company Losses"), up to the amount of such
--------------
Investor's original investment in the Private Placement (as set forth in
Schedule A hereto) arising out of or resulting from: (i) any inaccuracy in or
breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the
Investor in this Agreement, any Additional Agreement or in any writing delivered
pursuant to this Agreement or at the Closing; or (ii) the failure of the
Investor to perform or observe fully any covenant, agreement or provision to be
performed or observed by it pursuant to this Agreement or any Additional
Agreement. Company Losses resulting directly from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of the Company or any of its respective officers, directors,
employees, or any affiliate within the meaning of Rule 405 of the SEC under the
Act are not covered under this Section 9.2; provided, however, that, if and to
-------- -------
the extent that such indemnification is unenforceable for any reason, the
Investor shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of
such indemnified liability which shall be permissible under applicable laws.
9.3. Procedure. Each party entitled to be indemnified pursuant to Section 9.1
---------
and 9.2 (each, an "Indemnified Party") shall notify the other party in writing
-----------------
of any action against such Indemnified Party in respect of which the other party
is or may be obligated to provide indemnification on account of Section 9.1 or
9.2, promptly after the receipt of notice or knowledge of the commencement
thereof. The omission of any Indemnified Party so to notify the other party of
any such action shall not relieve such other party from any liability which it
may have to such Indemnified Party except to the extent the other party shall
have been materially prejudiced by the omission of such Indemnified Party so to
notify it, pursuant to this Section 9.3. In case any such action shall be
brought against any Indemnified Party and it shall notify the other party of the
commencement thereof, the other party shall be entitled to participate therein
and, to the extent that such other party may wish, to assume the defense
thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, and
after notice from it to such Indemnified Party of its election so to assume the
defense thereof, the other party will not be liable to such Indemnified Party
under Section 9.1 or 9.2 for any legal or other expense subsequently incurred by
such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof nor for any
settlement thereof entered into without the consent of the other party;
provided, however, that (i) if the other party shall elect not to assume the
-------- -------
defense of such claim or action or (ii) if the Indemnified Party reasonably
determines (x) that there may be a conflict between the positions of the other
party and of the Indemnified Party in defending such claim or action or (y) that
there may be legal defenses available to such Indemnified Party different from
or in addition to those available to the other party, then separate counsel for
the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in and conduct the
defense, in the case of (i) and (ii)(x), or such different defenses, in the case
of (ii)(y), and the other party shall be liable for any reasonable legal or
other expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense.
9.4. Indemnification Non-Exclusive. The foregoing indemnification
-----------------------------
provisions are in addition to, and not in derogation of, any statutory,
equitable or common-law remedy any party may have for breach of representation,
warranty, covenant or agreement.
10. Miscellaneous.
-------------
10.1. Survival of Warranties. The representations and warranties set
----------------------
forth in Sections 2 and 3 hereof and the covenants contained in Section 4 hereof
shall survive indefinitely.
10.2. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement may not be assigned by any
----------------------
Investor or the Company without the prior written consent of the other party
hereto; provided, however, that this Agreement may be transferred by any
-------- -------
Investor to one or more of its affiliates or beneficial owners, or to any other
Investor. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer
upon any party, other than the parties hereto or their respective successors and
permitted assigns, any rights, remedies, obligations, or liabilities under or by
reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided in this Agreement.
10.3. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be
-----------------------------------------
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York,
without regard to the conflict of law provisions. Each of the Company and the
Investor hereby submits to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the United States
District Court for the Southern District of New York and of any New York State
court sitting in New York City for purposes of all legal proceedings arising out
of or relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Each
of the Company and the Investor irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying
of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that
any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient
forum.
10.4. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each
------------
of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall be deemed
to constitute one and the same instrument.
10.5. Captions and Headings. The captions and headings used in this
---------------------
Agreement are for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or
interpreting this Agreement.
10.6. Notices. Unless otherwise provided, any notice or other
-------
communication required or permitted to be given or effected under this Agreement
shall be in writing and shall be deemed effective upon personal or facsimile

10.7. Finder's Fee. Each of the Company, on the one hand, and the Investor,
------------
on the other hand, severally represents and warrants to the other party hereto
that neither it nor any of its officers, directors, general partners, agents,
employees or affiliates, has engaged or authorized any broker or finder, other
than the Placement Agent (the costs and expenses of which shall be paid by the
Company), to act, directly or indirectly, on its behalf, in connection with the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or has consented to or acquiesced
in anyone so acting, and it knows of no claim by any person for compensation
from it for so acting or of any
basis for such a claim. The provisions of this Section 10.7 shall survive any
termination of this Agreement. Each party hereto further agrees to indemnify
each other party for any claims, losses or expenses incurred by such other party
as a result of the representation in this Section 10.7 being untrue.
10.8. Amendments and Waivers. Except as provided in Section 10.13, any
----------------------
term of this Agreement may be amended, and the observance of any term of this
Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either
retroactively or prospectively), only with the written consent of each of the
Company and Investors holding at least a majority of the Series A Preferred;
provided, however, that no amendment or waiver shall be effective without the
-------- -------
affirmative vote or written consent of holders owning in the aggregate 66-2/3%
or more of the Series A Preferred then outstanding. Any amendment or waiver
effected in accordance with this Section 10.8 shall be binding upon each holder
of any Securities purchased under this Agreement at the time outstanding, each
future holder of all such Securities, and the other parties to this Agreement.
10.9. Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held
------------
to be unenforceable under applicable law, such provisions shall be excluded from
this Agreement and the balance of this Agreement shall be interpreted as if such
provision were so excluded and shall be enforceable in accordance with its
terms.
10.10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement (and the Exhibits hereto) and the
----------------
Additional Agreements constitute the entire agreement among the parties with
respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements,
understandings and discussions between them, and all documents delivered by or
on behalf of the Company to the Investor and its agents and representatives,
with respect to such subject matter.
10.11. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
------------
counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together

---------
publish or disseminate or cause to be issued, published or disseminated any
press release or public communication relating to this Agreement or any
Additional Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated herein or therein

intellectual property or otherwise referring to any Investor or any affiliate or
beneficial owner of an Investor, the Company or IDT, as the case may be, without
the prior written consent of such other party.
10.13. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHTS TO
A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS

WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL, AND THAT SUCH PARTY KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS
JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. THIS WAIVER IS
IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING,
AND THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, SUPPLEMENTS OR
MODIFICATIONS TO (OR ASSIGNMENTS OF) THIS AGREEMENT. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION,
