Company in connection with the operations of the Company.
2.8 INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. All of the patents, patent

for or registered and filed with or issued by each appropriate governmental
entity in the jurisdiction in which the Company anticipates that it will
conduct its business and all necessary affidavits of continuing use have been

rights in effect. The Company owns or is licensed or otherwise has the right to
use, without payment to any other person, except as required pursuant to any
Service Agreement, all Intellectual Property used in or necessary for the
Company's business as proposed to be conducted. The Company's ownership and/or
use of the Intellectual Property in its business as proposed to be conducted
does not conflict with, or result in any violation of, or default (with or
without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of
termination, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation or result in any
loss of a material benefit under or the creation of any Lien in or upon any of
the properties or assets of the Company under, any contract between the Company
and any person. The Company has not received any communications alleging that
the Company has violated or, by conducting its business, would violate any of

with the use of such employee's best efforts to promote the interest of the
Company or that would conflict with the Company's business. Neither the
execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement, nor the carrying on of
the Company's business by the employees of the Company, nor the conduct of the
Company's business as proposed, will 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 employee is now
obligated. It is not necessary to use any inventions of any of its employees
(or persons it currently intends to hire) made prior to their employment by the
Company. There are no outstanding options, licenses or agreements of any kind
relating to the Intellectual Property, nor is the Company a party to any
options, licenses or agreements of any kind with respect to the patents,
trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights, mask-works, trade secrets,
processes, data or know-how of any other person or entity. None of the holders

trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights, mask-works, trade secrets,
processes, data or know-how

subject. The execution, delivery and performance of the Agreements to which the

written request from the Holders of at least thirty percent (30%) of the

Securities whose aggregate offering price is projected to be at least
$20,000,000.

date, a written request from Small Holders that hold, individually or in the

(a) If the Company shall receive at any time after the earlier
of (i) the third anniversary of this Agreement, or (ii) six (6) months after the
effective date of the first registration statement for a public offering of
securities of the Company (other than a registration statement relating either
to the sale of securities to employees of the Company pursuant to a stock
option, stock purchase or similar plan or an SEC Rule 145 transaction), either a
Qualifying Request or a Qualifying Small Holder Request, the Company shall,
within ten days of the receipt thereof, give written notice of such request to
all Holders and shall, subject to the limitations of Section 1.2(b) and of the
next sentence of this Section 1.2(a), use its best efforts to effect as soon as
practicable, and in any event within 60 days of the receipt of such request, the
registration under the Securities Act of all Registrable Securities which the
Holders request to be registered within 20 days of the mailing of such notice by
the Company in accordance with Section 3.4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, only
Registrable Securities held by Small Holders shall be included in a Small Holder
Registration.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company shall furnish
to Holders requesting a registration statement pursuant to this Section 1.2, a
certificate signed by the President of the Company stating that in the good
faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board"), it would
be seriously detrimental to the Company and its stockholders for such
registration statement to be filed and it is therefore essential to defer the
filing of such registration statement, the Company shall have the right to defer
such filing for a period of not more than 90 days after receipt of the request
of the Holders initiating the registration request (the "Initiating Holders");
provided, however, that the Company may not utilize this right more than once in
any twelve-month period.
(c) In addition, the Company shall not be obligated to effect,
or to take any action to effect, any registration pursuant to this Section 1.2:
(i) In response to a Qualifying Small Holder Request, after
the Company has effected one Small Holder Registration pursuant to this Section
1.2 and such Small Holder Registration has been declared or ordered effective
and remained effective long enough for all Registrable Securities registered
thereunder to be sold or until the period set forth in Section 1.5(a) expires;
(ii) In response to a Qualifying Request, after the Company
has effected two registrations that are not Small Holder Registrations pursuant
to this Section 1.2 and such registrations have been declared or ordered
effective and remained effective long enough
3
27
for all Registrable Securities registered thereunder to be sold or until the
period set forth in Section 1.5(a) expires;
(iii) If the Company delivers written notice to the
Initiating Holders within 30 days following such Holders' request for
registration that it intends to file a registration statement for the initial
public offering of securities of the Company, provided that such securities are
being issued for the Company's own account (other than a registration statement
relating either to the sale of securities to employees of the Company pursuant
to a stock option, stock purchase or similar plan or an SEC Rule 145
transaction), within 90 days following the Company's notice;
(iv) During the period starting with the date 30 days prior
to the Company's good faith estimate of the date of filing of, and ending on a
date 180 days after the effective date of, a registration subject to Section 1.3
hereof; which relates solely to shares to be offered by the Company; provided
that the Company is actively employing in good faith all reasonable efforts to
cause such registration statement to become effective; or
(v) If the Initiating Holders propose to dispose of shares
of Registrable Securities that may be immediately registered on Form S-3
pursuant to a request made pursuant to Section 1.4 below; provided that such
registration shall not be counted as one of the requested registrations under
Section 1.2.
1.3 COMPANY REGISTRATION. If (but without any obligation to do so)
the Company proposes to register (including without limitation for this purpose
a registration effected by the Company for stockholders other than the Holders)
any of its stock under the Securities Act in connection with the public offering
of such securities solely for cash (other than a registration relating solely to
the sale of securities to participants in a Company stock plan or a transaction
covered by Rule 145 under the Securities Act, a registration in which the only
stock being registered is Common Stock issuable upon conversion of debt
securities which are also being registered, or any registration on any form
which does not include substantially the same information as would be required
to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of the Registrable
Securities), the Company shall, at such time, promptly give each Holder written
notice of such registration. Upon the written request of each Holder given
within 20 days after mailing of such notice by the Company in accordance with
Section 3.4, the Company shall, subject to the provisions of Section 1.8, cause
to be registered under the Securities Act all of the Registrable Securities that
each such Holder has requested to be registered. The number of times a Holder
may register Registrable Securities under this Section 1.3 shall be unlimited.
1.4 FORM S-3 REGISTRATION. After consummation of its initial public
offering of its Common Stock, the Company shall use its best efforts to qualify
for registration on Form S-3. In case the Company shall receive from any Holder
or Holders of Registrable Securities then outstanding a written request or
requests that the Company effect a registration on Form S-3 and any related
qualification or compliance with respect to all or a part of the Registrable
Securities owned by such Holder or Holders, the Company will:
(a) promptly give written notice of the proposed registration,
and any related qualification or compliance, to all other Holders; and
4
28
(b) as soon as practicable, effect such registration and all
such qualifications and compliance as may be so requested and as would permit or
facilitate the sale and distribution of all or such portion of such Holder's or
Holders' Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with
all or such portion of the Registrable Securities of any other Holder or Holders
joining in such request as are specified in a written request given within 15
days after receipt of such written notice from the Company; provided, however,
that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration,
qualification or compliance, pursuant to this Section 1.4: (i) if Form S-3 is
not available for such offering by the Holders; (ii) if the Holders, together
with the holders of any other securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in
such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other
securities (if any) at an aggregate offering price to the public of less than
$5,000,000; (iii) if the Company shall furnish to the Holders a certificate
signed by the President of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment
of the Board of Directors of the Company, it would be seriously detrimental to
the Company and its stockholders for such Form S-3 Registration to be effected
at such time, in which event the Company shall have the right to defer the
filing of the Form S-3 registration statement for a period of not more than 90
days after receipt of the request of the Holder or Holders under this Section
1.4; provided, however, that the Company shall not utilize this right more than
once in any twelve-month period; (iv) if the Company has, within the
twelve-month period preceding the date of such request, already effected two
registrations on Form S-3 for the Holders pursuant to this Section 1.4; (v) in
any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to qualify to
do business or to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting
such registration, qualification or compliance; or (vi) during the period ending
180 days after the effective date of a registration statement subject to Section
1.3.
(c) Subject to the foregoing, the Company shall file a
registration statement covering the Registrable Securities and other securities
so requested to be registered as soon as practicable, and in any event within 20
days, after receipt of the request or requests of the Holders. Registrations
effected pursuant to this Section 1.4 shall not be counted as demands for
registration or registrations effected pursuant to Sections 1.2 or 1.3,
respectively. The number of registrations that may be requested pursuant to this
Section 1.4 is unlimited.
1.5 OBLIGATIONS OF THE COMPANY. Whenever required under this Section
1 to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities, the Company shall,
as expeditiously as reasonably possible:
(a) Prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with
respect to such Registrable Securities and use its best efforts to cause such
registration statement to become and remain effective, and, upon the request of
the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities registered thereunder,
keep such registration statement effective for up to 120 days.
(b) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and
supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection
with such registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the
provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all
securities covered by such registration statement for up to 120 days.
5
29
(c) Furnish to the Holders such numbers of copies of a
prospectus, including a preliminary prospectus, in conformity with the
requirements of the Securities Act, and such other documents as they may
reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of Registrable
Securities owned by them.
(d) Use its best efforts to register and qualify the securities
covered by such registration statement under such other securities or Blue Sky
laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders,
provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a
condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to
service of process in any such states or jurisdictions unless the Company is
required to do so under the Securities Act.
(e) In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into
and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and
customary form, with the managing underwriter of such offering. Each Holder
participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its
obligations under such an agreement.
(f) Notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such
registration statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is
required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event
as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as
then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then
existing.
(g) Cause all such Registrable Securities registered pursuant
hereunder to be listed on each securities exchange or the Nasdaq Stock Market on
which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed.
(h) Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable
Securities registered pursuant hereunder and a CUSIP number for all such
Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective date of such
registration.
(i) Use its best efforts to furnish, at the request of any
Holder requesting registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to this
Section 1, on the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the
underwriters for sale in connection with a registration pursuant to this Section
1, if such securities are being sold through underwriters, or, if such
securities are not being sold through underwriters, on the date that the
registration statement with respect to such securities becomes effective, (i) an
opinion, dated such date, of the counsel representing the Company for the
purposes of such registration, in form and substance as is customarily given to
underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters,
if any, and to the Holders requesting registration of Registrable Securities and
(ii) a letter dated such date, from the independent certified public accountants
of the Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent
certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering,
addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the Holders requesting
registration of Registrable Securities.
6
30
1.6 FURNISH INFORMATION. It shall be a condition precedent to the
obligations of the Company to file a registration statement pursuant to this
Section 1 with respect to the Registrable Securities of any selling Holder that
such Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding itself, the
Registrable Securities held by it, and the intended method of disposition of
such securities as shall be reasonably requested by the Company in writing to
effect the registration of such Holder's Registrable Securities. The Company
shall have no obligation with respect to any registration requested pursuant to
Section 1.2 or Section 1.4 of this Agreement if, as a result of the application
of the preceding sentence, the number of shares or the anticipated aggregate
offering price of the Registrable Securities to be included in the registration
does not equal or exceed the number of shares or the anticipated aggregate
offering price required to originally trigger the Company's obligation to
initiate such registration as specified in Section 1.2(a) or Section 1.4(b)(ii),
whichever is applicable.
1.7 EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION.
(a) DEMAND REGISTRATION. All expenses (other than underwriting
discounts and commissions) incurred in connection with registrations, filings or
qualifications pursuant to Section 1.2, including (without limitation) all
registration, filing and qualification fees, printers' and accounting fees, fees
and disbursements of counsel for the Company, and the reasonable fees and
disbursements of one counsel for the selling Holders selected by them with the
approval of the Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld,
shall be borne by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be
required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant
to Section 1.2 if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn prior to
effectiveness at the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable
Securities to be registered (in which case all participating Holders shall bear
such expenses with each Holder paying its pro rata portion of such expenses
based on the number of Registrable Securities with respect to which each such
Holder has requested registration), unless the Holders of a majority of the
Registrable Securities agree to forfeit their right to one demand registration
pursuant to Section 1.2.
(b) COMPANY REGISTRATION. All expenses (other than underwriting
discounts and commissions) incurred in connection with registrations, filings or
qualifications of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 1.3 for each Holder
(which right may be assigned as provided in Section 1.12), including (without
limitation) all registration, filing, and qualification fees, printers' and
accounting fees, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and the
reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel for the selling Holder or
Holders selected by them with the approval of the Company, which approval shall
not be unreasonably withheld, shall be borne by the Company.
(c) REGISTRATION ON FORM S-3. All expenses (other than
underwriters' discounts or commissions) incurred in connection with a
registration requested pursuant to Section 1.4, including (without limitation)
all registration, filing, qualification, printers' and accounting fees and the
reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel for the selling Holder or
Holders selected by them with the approval of the Company, which approval shall
not be unreasonably withheld, and counsel for the Company, shall be borne by the
Company.

31
1.8 UNDERWRITING REQUIREMENTS. In connection with any offering
involving an underwriting of shares of the Company's capital stock, the Company
shall not be required under Section 1.3 to include any of the Holders'
securities in such underwriting unless they accept the terms of the underwriting
as agreed upon between the Company and the underwriters selected by it (or by
other persons entitled to select the underwriters), and then only in such
quantity as the underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not
jeopardize the success of the offering by the Company. If the total amount of
securities, including Registrable Securities, requested by stockholders to be
included in such offering exceeds the amount of securities to be included by
persons other than the Company that the underwriters determine in their sole
discretion is compatible with the success of the offering, then the Company
shall be required to include in the offering only that number of such
securities, including Registrable Securities, which the underwriters determine
in their sole discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering (the
securities so included to be apportioned pro rata among the selling stockholders
according to the total amount of securities entitled to be included therein
owned by each selling stockholder or in such other proportions as shall mutually
be agreed to by such selling stockholders) but in no event shall the amount of
securities of the selling Holders included in the offering be reduced below 20%
of the total amount of securities included in such offering, unless such
offering is the initial public offering of the Company's securities, in which
case, the selling stockholders may be excluded entirely if the underwriters make
the determination described above and no other stockholder's securities are
included.
1.9 DELAY OF REGISTRATION. No Holder shall have any right to obtain
or seek an injunction restraining or otherwise delaying any such registration as
the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the
interpretation or implementation of this Section 1.
1.10 INDEMNIFICATION. In the event any Registrable Securities are
included in a registration statement under this Section 1:
(a) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify
and hold harmless each Holder, each of its officers, directors, partners,
members, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for such Holder and
each person, if any, who controls such Holder or underwriter within the meaning
of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages
or liabilities (or actions, proceedings or settlements in respect thereof),
whether joint or several, to which they may become subject under the Securities
Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses,
claims, damages or liabilities (or actions, proceedings or settlements in
respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements,
omissions or violations (collectively a "Violation"): (i) any untrue statement
or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration
statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained
therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any violation
or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any
state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities
Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law; and the Company will pay to
each such Holder, each of its officers, directors, partners, members,
underwriter or controlling person, as incurred, any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any
such
8
32
loss, claim, damage, expenses or liability (or actions, proceedings or
settlements in respect thereof); provided, however, that the indemnity agreement
contained in this Section 1.10(a) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement
of any such loss, claim, damage or liability (or actions, proceedings or
settlements in respect thereof) if such settlement is effected without the
consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor
shall the Company be liable to any Holder, each of its officers, directors,
partners, members, underwriter or controlling person for any such loss, claim,
damage or liability (or actions, proceedings or settlements in respect thereof)
to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in
reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly for
use in connection with such registration by any such Holder, officer, director,
partner, member, underwriter or controlling person.
(b) To the extent permitted by law, each selling Holder,
severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of
its directors, each of its officers who has signed the registration statement,
each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the
Securities Act, any underwriter, any other Holder selling securities in such
registration statement and any controlling person of any such underwriter or
other Holder, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions,
proceedings or settlements in respect thereof), whether joint or several, to
which any of the foregoing persons may become subject, under the Securities Act,
the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims,
damages or liabilities (or actions, proceedings or settlements in respect
thereof) arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the
extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and
in conformity with written information furnished by such Holder expressly for
use in connection with such registration; and each such Holder will pay, as
incurred, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any person intended
to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 1.10(b), in connection with
investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, expenses or liability
(or actions, proceedings or settlements in respect thereof); provided, however,
that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 1.10(b) shall not apply
to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage or liability (or
actions, proceedings or settlements in respect thereof), if such settlement is
effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld; provided, that in no event shall any indemnity under this
Section 1.10(b) exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such
Holder, except in the case of willful fraud by such Holder.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
Section 1.10 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any
governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof
is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 1.10, deliver to
the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the
indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent
the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party
similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually
satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party
(together with all other indemnified parties which may be represented without
conflict by one counsel) shall have the right to retain one separate counsel,
with the reasonable fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying party, if
representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the
indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing
interests between such indemnified
9
33
party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The
failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable
time of the commencement of any such action, if prejudicial to its ability to
defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to
the indemnified party under this Section 1.10, but the omission so to deliver
written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability
that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section
1.10.
(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 1.10 is
held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified
party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense referred to
therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified
party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
indemnified party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense
in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the
indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in
connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss,
liability, claim, damage or expense as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations; provided, that in no event shall any contribution by a Holder
under this Section 1.10(d) exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by
such Holder, except in the case of willful fraud by such Holder. The relative
fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined
by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to
information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and
the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity
to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the
provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting
agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are
in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting
agreement shall control.
(f) The obligations of the Company and Holders under this
Section 1.10 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable
Securities in a registration statement under this Section 1, and otherwise.
1.11 REPORTS UNDER EXCHANGE ACT. With a view to making available to
the Holders the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act and
any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit a Holder to
sell securities of the Company to the public without registration or pursuant to
a registration on Form S-3, the Company agrees to:
(a) make and keep public information available, as those terms
are understood and defined in SEC Rule 144, at all times after 90 days after the
effective date of the first registration statement filed by the Company for the
offering of its securities to the general public so long as the Company remains
subject to the periodic reporting requirements under Sections 13 or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act;
(b) take such action, including the voluntary registration of
its Common Stock under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, as is necessary to enable
the Holders to utilize Form S-3 for the sale of their Registrable Securities,
such action to be taken as soon as
10
34
practicable after the end of the fiscal year in which the first registration
statement filed by the Company for the offering of its securities to the general
public is declared effective;
(c) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other
documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act;
and
(d) furnish to any Holder, so long as the Holder owns any
Registrable Securities, forthwith upon request (i) a written statement by the
Company that it has complied with the reporting requirements of SEC Rule 144 (at
any time after 90 days after the effective date of the first registration
statement filed by the Company), the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any
time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements), or that it
qualifies as a registrant whose securities may be resold pursuant to Form S-3
(at any time after it so qualifies), (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or
quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by
the Company, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested in
availing any Holder of any rule or regulation of the SEC which permits the
selling of any such securities without registration or pursuant to such form.
1.12 ASSIGNMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The rights to cause the
Company to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 1 may be
assigned (but only with all related obligations) by a Holder to (i) any of its
affiliates, (ii) the holders of the equity securities of any Holder that is an
entity, (iii) any family member or trust for the benefit of any individual
Holder, or (iv) a transferee or assignee of at least 400,000 shares of

other recapitalization) of such securities (or all of such Holder's shares, if
less than 400,000 shares) (collectively, a "Permitted Transferee"), provided
the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer, furnished with
written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the
securities with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned;
and provided, further, that such assignment shall be effective only if
immediately following such transfer the further disposition of such securities
by the transferee or assignee is restricted under the Securities Act. Any
permitted assignee under this Section 1.12 shall become a Holder hereunder.
1.13 LIMITATIONS ON SUBSEQUENT REGISTRATION RIGHTS. From and after the
date of this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent
of the Holders of a majority of the outstanding Registrable Securities, enter
into any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of
the Company which would allow such holder or prospective holder (a) to include
such securities in any registration filed under Section 1.2 hereof, unless under
the terms of such agreement, such holder or prospective holder may include such
securities in any such registration only to the extent that the inclusion of his
securities will not reduce the amount of the Registrable Securities of the
Holders which is included or (b) to make a demand registration which could
result in such registration statement being declared effective prior to the
earlier of either of the dates set forth in Section 1.2(a) or within 120 days of
the effective date of any registration effected pursuant to Section 1.2.

(other than those included in the registration) without the prior written
consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period
of time (not to exceed 180 days) from the effective date of such registration as
may be requested by the Company or such managing underwriters and to execute an
agreement reflecting the foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters at
the time of the Company's initial public offering.
(b) LIMITATIONS. The obligations described in Section 1.14(a)

shall not apply to a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans, or
to a registration relating solely to a transaction pursuant to Rule 145 under
the Securities Act.

foregoing covenants, the Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with
respect to the securities of each Holder (and the securities of every other
person subject to the restrictions in Section 1.14(a)).
(d) TRANSFEREES BOUND. Each Holder agrees that it will not
transfer securities of the Company unless each transferee agrees in writing to
be bound by all of the provisions of this Section 1.14, provided that this
Section 1.14(d) shall not apply to transfers pursuant to a registration
statement.
1.15 TERMINATION OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. No Holder shall be
entitled to exercise any right provided for in this Section 1 after the earlier
of (i) five years following the consummation of a Qualified IPO, or (ii) such

period without registration.
2. COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY.
2.1 DELIVERY OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. The Company shall deliver to
each Holder of at least 250,000 shares (appropriately adjusted for any stock
split, dividend, combination or other recapitalization) of the Series A
Preferred Stock (or the Common Stock issued upon conversion thereof) (other than
a Holder reasonably deemed by the Company to be a competitor of the Company,
which shall not include any of the Investors that are original signatories to
the Purchase Agreement):
(a) as soon as practicable, but in any event within 90 days
after the end of each fiscal year of the Company, an income statement for such
fiscal year, a balance sheet of the Company and statement of stockholder's
equity as of the end of such year, and a statement of cash flows for such year,
such year-end financial reports to be in reasonable detail, prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), and audited
and certified
12
36
by an independent public accounting firm of nationally recognized
standing selected by the Company;
(b) as soon as practicable, but in any event within 30 days
after the end of each month, an unaudited income statement and a statement of
cash flows and balance sheet for and as of the end of such month, in reasonable
detail; and
(c) an annual budget and operating plan each fiscal year,
promptly after management has presented such budget and operating plan to the
Board.
2.2 RIGHT OF FIRST OFFER. Subject to the terms and conditions
specified in this Section 2.2, the Company hereby grants to each Major Investor
(as hereinafter defined) a right of first offer with respect to future issuances
and sales by the Company of its Shares (as hereinafter defined). For purposes of
this Section 2.2, a "Major Investor" shall mean any person who holds, along with
its affiliates, directly or indirectly, at least 400,000 shares (appropriately
adjusted for any stock split, dividend, combination or other recapitalization)
of the Series A Preferred Stock (or the Common Stock issued upon conversion
thereof) issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. For purposes of this Section
2.2, Major Investor includes any general partners and affiliates of a Major
Investor. A Major Investor who chooses to exercise the right of first offer may
designate as purchasers under such right itself or its partners or affiliates in
such proportions as it deems appropriate.
Each time the Company proposes to offer any shares of, or securities
convertible into or exercisable for any shares of, any class of its capital
stock ("Shares"), the Company shall first make an offering of such Shares to
each Major Investor in accordance with the following provisions:
(a) The Company shall deliver a notice by certified mail
("Notice") to the Major Investors stating (i) its bona fide intention to offer
such Shares, (ii) the number of such Shares to be offered, and (iii) the price
and terms, if any, upon which it proposes to offer such Shares.
(b) Within 15 calendar days after delivery of the Notice, the
Major Investor may elect to purchase or obtain, at the price and on the terms
specified in the Notice, up to that portion of such Shares which equals the
proportion that the number of shares of Common Stock issued and held, or
issuable upon conversion and exercise of all convertible or exercisable
securities then held, by such Major Investor bears to the total number of shares
of Common Stock then outstanding (assuming full conversion and exercise of all
convertible or exercisable securities). Such purchase shall be completed at the
same closing as that of any third party purchasers or at an additional closing
thereunder. The Company shall promptly, in writing, inform each Major Investor
that purchases all the shares available to it (each, a "Fully-Exercising
Investor") of any other Major Investor's failure to do likewise. During the
ten-day period commencing after receipt of such information, each
Fully-Exercising Investor shall be entitled to obtain that portion of the Shares
for which Major Investors were entitled to subscribe but which were not
subscribed for by the Major Investors that is equal to the proportion that the
number of shares of Common Stock issued and held, or issuable upon conversion
and exercise of all convertible or exercisable securities then held, by such
Fully-Exercising Investor bears to the
13
37
total number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding (assuming full
conversion and exercise of all convertible or exercisable securities).
(c) The Company may, during the 60-day period following the
expiration of the period provided in Section 2.2(b) hereof, offer the remaining
unsubscribed portion of the Shares to any person or persons at a price not less
than, and upon terms no more favorable to the offeree than those specified in
the Notice. If the Company does not enter into an agreement for the sale of the
Shares within such period, or if such agreement is not consummated within 90
days of the execution thereof, the right provided hereunder shall be deemed to
be revived and such Shares shall not be offered unless first reoffered to the
Major Investors in accordance herewith.
(d) The right of first offer in this Section 2.2 shall not be
applicable to:
(i) Common Stock issued pursuant to a transaction
pursuant to which the Company sells, conveys, or otherwise disposes of all or
substantially all of its property or business or merges into or consolidates
with any other corporation (other than a wholly-owned subsidiary corporation) or
effect any other transaction or series of related transactions in which more
than fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of the Corporation is disposed of,
(ii) Shares of Common Stock issuable or issued to
employees or directors of the Company directly or pursuant to a stock option
plan, restricted stock plan or other agreement approved by the Board,
(iii) Capital stock, or options or warrants to purchase
capital stock, issued to financial institutions or lessors in connection with
commercial credit arrangements, equipment financings or similar transactions for
which the principal purpose is not to raise equity funding, each of which has
been approved by the Board,
(iv) Capital stock or warrants or options to purchase
capital stock issued in connection with bona fide acquisitions, mergers or
similar transactions, each of which has been approved by the Board,
(v) Capital stock or warrants or options to purchase
capital stock issued in connection with bona fide strategic partnerships or
licenses or acquisition of third party technology, each of which has been
approved by the Board,
(vi) Shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon
conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock,
(vii) Shares of Common Stock issued or issuable in a public
offering approved by the Board prior to or in connection with which all
outstanding shares of Preferred Stock will be converted to Common Stock,
(viii) Shares of Common Stock issued or issuable with the
affirmative vote or written consent of at least a majority of the then
outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, voting together as a class, or
14
38
(ix) Shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to a Qualified
IPO.
In addition to the foregoing, the right of first offer in this Section 2.2 shall
not be applicable with respect to any Major Investor and any subsequent
securities issuance, if (i) at the time of such subsequent securities issuance,
the Major Investor is not an "accredited investor," as that term is defined in
Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act, or is not otherwise qualified to
participate in an offering exempt from registration under the Securities Act;
and (ii) such subsequent securities issuance is otherwise being offered only to
accredited investors.
(e) The right of a Major Investor under this Section 2.2 may
be assigned in whole or in part only to a transferee who will otherwise meet the
definition of a "Major Investor" after the assignment. In addition, in
connection with an exercise of the right under this Section 2.2, a Major
Investor may assign such right to an affiliate of such Major Investor.
2.3 TERMINATION OF COVENANTS.
(a) The covenants set forth in Section 2.1 and Section 2.2
shall terminate as to each Holder and be of no further force or effect
immediately upon the consummation of a Qualified IPO
(b) The covenants set forth in Section 2.1 shall terminate as
to each Holder and be of no further force or effect when the Company first
becomes subject to the periodic reporting requirements of Sections 13 or 15(d)
of the Exchange Act, if this occurs earlier than the events described in Section
2.3(a) above.
3. MISCELLANEOUS.
3.1 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit

or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto
or their respective successors and assigns any rights, remedies, obligations, or
liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided
in this Agreement.
3.2 AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. Any term of this Agreement may be amended
or waived only with the written consent of the Company and the holders of a
majority of the Registrable Securities then outstanding; ; provided, however,
that any such amendment or waiver cannot be effected in accordance with this
Section 3.2 if it adversely affects the rights of any Holder hereunder or
increases the obligations of any Holder hereunder unless the affected party,
expressly consents, in writing, to such amendment or waiver.. Any amendment or
waiver effected in accordance with this paragraph shall be binding upon each
party to the Agreement, whether or not such party has signed such amendment or
waiver, each future holder of all such Registrable Securities, and the Company.
15
39
3.4 NOTICES. Unless otherwise provided, any notice required or
permitted by this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed sufficient

the party to be notified at such party's address or fax number as set forth on
Exhibit A to the Purchase Agreement or as subsequently modified by written
notice.

deny any party the material benefits of the transactions for which it has
bargained, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect in any way the
remaining provisions hereof.

pursuant hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with
the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles of
conflicts of law.

_________ ___, 2000 by and among the individuals listed on Exhibit A to this
Agreement (each a "Founder" and collectively the "Founders"), Inciscent, Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and the holders of Series A Preferred
Stock of the Company listed on Exhibit B to this Agreement (each an "Investor"
and collectively the "Investors"). Collectively, the Founders and the Investors
are referred to herein as the "Owners."
RECITALS
The Company and the Investors have entered into a Series A Preferred Stock
Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") dated as of February 8, 2000,
pursuant to which the Company has agreed to sell to the Investors and the
Investors have agreed to purchase from the Company shares of the Company's
Series A Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred Stock"). A condition to the
Investors' obligations under the Purchase Agreement is that the Company, the
Founders and the Investors enter into this Agreement in order to provide the
Investors and Founders the opportunity to purchase and/or participate, upon the
terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, in subsequent sales by the
Investors and Founders of shares of the Company's capital stock. The Company and
the Founders desire to induce the Investors to purchase shares of Series A
Preferred Stock pursuant to the Purchase Agreement by agreeing to the terms and
conditions set forth below.
AGREEMENT
The parties agree as follows:
1. Rights of First Refusal.
1.1. No Owner shall, whether voluntarily or by operation of law, sell,
transfer, pledge, hypothecate, gift, bequest, devise, assign or otherwise
dispose of (collectively, "transfer") any shares of the Company's common stock,
par value $0.0001 per share (the "Common Stock"), or Series A Preferred Stock,
whether now owned or hereafter acquired by such Founder or Investor (the
"Shares"), except for "Permitted Transfers" (as defined in Subsection 1.5 below)
or pursuant to this Section 1 or Section 2 below.
1.2. In the event that an Owner wishes to transfer Shares (a "Selling
Stockholder"), other than as a Permitted Transfer, such Selling Stockholder
shall deliver a written notice (the "Sale Notice") to the Company and to each of
the Founders and Investors who owns, alone or together with its affiliates, at
least 250,000 Shares (appropriately adjusted for any stock split, dividend,
combination, change in the conversion price of the Series A Preferred
1
43
Stock or other recapitalization) (each a "Holder"), disclosing in reasonable
detail the identity of the proposed transferees, the number of Shares to be
transferred (the "Offered Shares"), and the terms and conditions of the proposed
transfer. To the extent that the Selling Stockholder is a Founder and the
Offered Shares are subject to the Company's right of first refusal pursuant to a
stock purchase agreement or stock restriction agreement ("Founders Shares"), the
Company shall have a period of 30 days from the date of delivery of the Sale
Notice to give written notice (the "Company Notice") to the Selling Stockholder
of its decision whether or not to purchase some or all of the Offered Shares.
The Company shall simultaneously deliver a copy of the Company Notice to each of
the Holders.
1.3. (a) In the case of Founders Shares, if the Company elects not to
purchase all of the Offered Shares, or if the Offered Shares are not Founders
Shares, the Holders shall have the option, for seven (7) days following their
receipt of (i) the Company Notice, in the case of Founders Shares, or (ii) the
Sale Notice in the case of Shares other than Founders Shares, to purchase some
or all of the remaining Offered Shares at the price and upon the terms set forth
in the Sale Notice. Each Holder shall have the right to purchase its pro rata
share of the Offered Shares, or remaining Offered Shares in the case of Founders
Shares, which pro rata share represents the ratio of the total number of shares
of Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock (on an as-converted basis) then
held by the Holder to the total number of shares of Common Stock and Series A
Preferred Stock then outstanding (on an as-converted basis), calculated on a
fully-diluted basis (including shares issuable upon conversion, exchange or
exercise of all outstanding warrants, options and other convertible and
exchangeable securities and shares reserved for future issuance under any equity
incentive plans adopted by the Board of Directors). In the event a Holder elects
to purchase some or all of the remaining Offered Shares, it shall give written
notice of its election to the Selling Stockholder within such seven-day period,
and the settlement of the sale of such Offered Shares shall be made as provided
below in Subsection 1.4 of this Section 1.
(b) Each Holder will have the right of reallotment such that, if
any other Holder fails to fully exercise the right to purchase its full pro rata
share of the Offered Shares pursuant to Section 1.3(a), the other participating
Holders may exercise an additional right to purchase, on a pro rata basis, the
Offered Shares not previously purchased.
1.4 The closing of the purchase and sale of the Offered Shares shall
take place on a date agreed upon by the Selling Stockholder and purchaser or
purchasers of the Offered Shares, but in any event:
(a) in the event the Company is the purchaser, no later than the
first business day following the 30th day from the date of (a) the Company
Notice, in the case of Founders Shares or (b) Sales Notice in the case of Shares
other than Founders Shares, at the principal office of the Company on the terms
and conditions set forth in the Sale Notice; or
(b) in the event the Company is not the purchaser, no later than
the first business day following the 60th day from the date of (a) the Company
Notice, in the case of Founders Shares or (b) Sales Notice in the case of Shares
other than Founders Shares, at the principal office of the Company on the terms
and conditions set forth in the Sale Notice.
2
44
1.5 For purposes of this Section 1, a "Permitted Transfer" shall mean
(a) Any repurchase of Common Stock by the Company pursuant to a
right of repurchase upon the termination of the transferring Owner's employment
or consulting relationship with the Company;
(b) Any bona fide gift to a charitable organization;
(c) Any transfer to the transferring Owner's Affiliate, ancestor,
descendant, sibling or spouse or to a trust for their benefit or a partnership
that is owned entirely by the transferring Owner's ancestors, descendants,
siblings or spouse; or
(d) Any distribution of securities without consideration to
holders of equity interests in the distributing Owner;
provided, in each case, that the pledgee, transferee or donee (each a "Permitted
Transferee") shall furnish the Company and the Owners with a written agreement
to be bound by and comply with all provisions of this Agreement and the Voting
Agreement dated as of ____________ ____, 2000 by and among the Company, the
Founders and the Investors (the "Voting Agreement"); and provided, further, that
if the transferor is an Investor, the Permitted Transferee shall in addition
furnish the Company and the other Investors with a written agreement to be bound
by and comply with all provisions of the Investors' Rights Agreement dated as of
______________ ____, 2000 by and among the Company and the Investors (the
"Investors' Rights Agreement"); and provided, further, that the right of first
refusal in Section 1 and the right of co-sale in Section 2, in either case, may
be waived in writing by the holders of a majority in interest (on an
as-converted basis) of the Shares. A Permitted Transferee shall be deemed to be
an Owner.
1.6 For purposes of Section 1.5 an "Affiliate" of a Person shall mean
any Person that directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries,
controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, the Person
specified. The term "control" (including the correlative terms "controlled by"
and "under common control with") as used with respect to any Person means the
possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or to cause the
direction of the management and policies of such Person, whether through the
ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise. "Person" shall mean
any individual, corporation (including non-profit corporation), general or
limited partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, estate, trust,
association, organization or other entity.
2. Co-Sale Right. To the extent that the right of first refusal set forth
in Section 1 is not fully exercised by the Holders, each Holder shall have the
right (the "Co-Sale Right"), exercisable upon written notice to the Company
within seven (7) days after the expiration of the right of first refusal set
forth in Section 1 to participate in the Selling Stockholder's sale of the
Offered Shares pursuant to the specified terms and conditions of the Sale
Notice. To the extent a Holder exercises such Co-Sale Right in accordance with
the terms and conditions set forth below, the number of Shares which the Selling
Stockholder may sell shall be correspondingly reduced. The Co-Sale Right shall
be subject to the following terms and conditions:
3
45
(a) Calculation of Shares. Each Holder may sell all or any part
of that number of shares of stock (including Series A Preferred Stock, Common
Stock and Common Stock issuable upon conversion of Series A Preferred Stock or
any stock received in connection with any stock dividend, stock split or other
reclassification of any such stock) (the "Conversion Shares") equal to the
product obtained by multiplying (i) the aggregate number of Shares subject to
the Co-Sale Right by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of
Conversion Shares at the time owned by such Holder and the denominator of which
is the sum of (A) the total number of Conversion Shares at the time owned by all
Holders participating in such sale plus (B) the total number of Shares at the
time owned by the Selling Stockholder.
(b) Delivery of Certificates. Each Holder may effect its
participation in the sale by delivering to the Selling Stockholder for transfer
to the prospective purchaser one or more certificates, properly endorsed for
transfer, which represent the Conversion Shares which such Holder elects to
sell.
3. Put Option. In the event any Selling Stockholder transfers any Shares
in contravention of the Co-Sale Right in Section 2 (a "Prohibited Transfer"), to
the extent that such transfer is valid and recorded on the books of and
recognized by the Company, each Holder, in addition to such other remedies as
may be available at law, in equity or hereunder, will have the right to sell to
the Selling Stockholder, and in the event such Holder exercises such right the
Selling Stockholder shall be obligated to purchase from such Holder, the type
and number of Shares that such Holder would have been entitled to transfer to
the third-party transferee pursuant to Section 2 above had the Prohibited
Transfer been effected pursuant to and in compliance with the terms of this
Agreement. Such sale is to be made on the following terms and conditions:
(a) the price per Share at which the Shares are to be sold to the
Selling Stockholder shall be the price per Share paid by the third-party
transferee in the Prohibited Transfer;
(b) each Holder must exercise the right to sell pursuant to this
Section 3 within sixty (60) days after the later of the dates on which the
Holder (i) received notice of the Prohibited Transfer, or (ii) otherwise became
aware of the Prohibited Transfer, and each Holder shall, in order to exercise
the right created hereby, deliver to the Selling Stockholder the certificate or
certificates representing the Shares to be sold, each certificate to be properly
endorsed for transfer; and
(c) the Selling Stockholder shall, upon receipt of the
certificate or certificates for the Shares to be sold by a Holder pursuant to
this Section 3, pay the aggregate purchase price therefor, as specified in
clause (a) above, in cash or by other means acceptable to the Holder.
4. Assignment of Rights. The rights of a Holder set forth in Sections 1,
2 and 3 may be assigned (but only with all related obligations) only to a
Permitted Transferee or to a transferee or assignee of at least 400,000
Conversion Shares (appropriately adjusted for any stock split, dividend,
combination, change in the conversion price of the Series A Preferred Stock or
other recapitalization) (or all of such Holder's Conversion Shares, if less),
provided that
4
46
(i) the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer, furnished with
written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the
securities with respect to which such rights are being assigned, (ii) such
transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement and
the Voting Agreement and (iii) if the transferor is an Investor, such transferee
in addition agrees in writing to be bound by the provisions of the Investors'
Rights Agreement.
5. Drag-Along Rights. In the event that one or more Owners propose to
sell shares of stock (including Series A Preferred Stock, Common Stock and
Common Stock issuable upon conversion of Series A Preferred Stock or any stock
received in connection with any stock dividend, stock split or other
reclassification of any such stock) (the "Drag-Along Shares") to a
non-affiliated third party on an arm's-length basis, other than pursuant to a
transaction that is contemplated in Section 1.5(a), (b), (c) or (d), if the
aggregate number of Drag-Along Shares proposed to be sold by such selling Owners
constitutes at least 66.67 % of the total number of shares of Common Stock
(including shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of Series A Preferred
Stock) then outstanding, the selling Owners shall have the right to require all
(but not less than all) other Owners to sell all of the Drag-Along Shares held
by such other Owners to such third party, provided that the terms of such sale
are equivalent for all Owners (including the consideration received by each
Owner for each Drag-Along Share, taking into account the type of stock
transferred).
In the event that one or more Owners wish to exercise their rights pursuant
to this Section 5, such selling Owner(s) shall deliver a written notice to the
Company and to each of the other Owners, disclosing in reasonable detail the
identity of the proposed transferees, the number of shares proposed to be sold
by the selling Owner(s) and the terms and conditions of the proposed sale. Such
notice shall include the closing date and instructions in reasonable detail for
the proposed sale, which closing shall take place no earlier than 30 days
following the date of the notice.
6. Termination of Agreement. This Agreement shall terminate in its
entirety on the earlier of (a) consummation of the sale of the Company's Common
Stock in a firm commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to a
registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, that
results in aggregate cash proceeds to the Company of at least $20,000,000 (net
of underwriting discounts and commissions), or (b) consummation of a transaction
in which the Company shall sell, convey, or otherwise dispose of all or
substantially all of its property or business or merge into or consolidate with
any other corporation (other than a wholly-owned subsidiary corporation) or
effect any other transaction or series of related transactions in which at least
50% of the voting power of the Company is disposed of; provided that this
Agreement shall not be terminated following a merger effected solely for the
purpose of changing the domicile of the Company.
7. Legends. In addition to any other legend required by law or agreements
among the parties, each certificate representing Founders' or Investors' shares
of Common Stock or Series A Preferred Stock of the Company must be endorsed by
the Company with a legend reading as follows:

THE PERSON ACCEPTING SUCH INTEREST SHALL BE DEEMED TO AGREE AND SHALL
BECOME BOUND BY ALL THE PROVISIONS OF SAID CO-SALE AGREEMENT."
6. Amendment; Waiver. Any term hereof may be amended or waived with the
written consent of the Company, holders of a majority of the Series A Preferred
Stock (or the equivalent amount of Common Stock issued or issuable upon
conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock), or their respective successors and
assigns, and holders of a majority of the Common Stock held by the Founders, or
their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that any such
amendment or waiver cannot be effected in accordance with this Section 6 if it
adversely the rights of any Owner hereunder or increases the obligations of any
Owner hereunder unless the affected Owner expressly consents, in writing, to
such amendment or waiver. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with
this Section 6 shall be binding upon the Company, the holders of Series A
Preferred Stock and any holder of the Common Stock held by the Founders, and
each of their respective successors and assigns.
7. Notices. Any notice required or permitted by this Agreement shall be

registered mail, with postage prepaid, and addressed to the party to be notified
at such party's address as set forth on Exhibit C hereto, or as subsequently
modified by written notice.
8. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is invalid or
unenforceable shall be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or
unenforceability, provided that such invalidity or unenforceability does not
deny any party the material benefits of the transactions for which it has
bargained and such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect in any way
the remaining provisions hereof.
9. Governing Law. This Agreement and all acts and transactions pursuant
hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed,
construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware,
without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law.
10. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more

together shall constitute one instrument.
11. Successors and Assigns. The terms and conditions of this Agreement
shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective successors and
assigns of the parties. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is
intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto or their
respective successors and assigns any rights, remedies, obligations,
6
48
or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly
provided in this Agreement.
12. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement
between the parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter hereof, and any and
all other written or oral agreements relating to the subject matter hereof

"Founder" and collectively the "Founders"), and the holders of shares of Series
A Preferred Stock listed on Exhibit B to this Agreement (each an "Investor" and
collectively the "Investors").
RECITALS
The Company and the Investors have entered into a Series A Preferred Stock
Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") dated as of February 8, 2000
pursuant to which the Company has agreed to sell to the Investors and the
Investors have agreed to purchase from the Company shares of the Company's
Series A Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred Stock"). A condition to the
Investors' obligations under the Purchase Agreement is that the Company, the
Founders and the Investors enter into this Agreement for the purpose of setting
forth the terms and conditions pursuant to which the Investors and the Founders
shall vote their shares of the Company's voting stock in favor of certain
designees to the Company's Board of Directors.
The Company, the Investors and the Founders each desire to facilitate the
voting arrangements set forth in this Agreement, and the sale and purchase of
shares of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, by
agreeing to the terms and conditions set forth herein.
AGREEMENT
The parties hereby agree as follows:
1. BOARD REPRESENTATION.
(a) The Company hereby agrees to take such actions as are necessary,
and each of the Founders and Investors agrees to vote his, her or its shares of
the Company's common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Common Stock"),
and Series A Preferred Stock (and any other shares of the capital stock of the
Company over which he, she or it exercises voting control) and take such other
actions as are necessary, so as to elect and thereafter continue in office as
directors of the Company such individuals who may be nominated by each of the
following Investors (with each of the following Investors having the exclusive
right to make nominations as to the number of directorships indicated):
Metrocall, Inc. - three, one of whom shall be the Chairman of
the Board
Aether Systems, Inc. - two
HMTF Bridge MC II, LLC - one
PSINet Inc. - one.

60
(b) Removal and Substitution of Board Members. The Company hereby
agrees to take such actions as are necessary, and each of the Founders and
Investors agrees to vote his, her or its shares of Common Stock and Series A
Preferred Stock (and any other shares of the capital stock of the Company over
which he, she or it exercises voting control) and take such other actions as are
necessary, for the removal of any director upon the request of the party or
parties designating such director and for the election to the Board of Directors
of a substitute designated by such party.
(c) Vacancies on Board of Directors. The Company hereby agrees to
take such actions as are necessary, and each of the Founders and Investors
agrees to vote his, her or its shares of Common Stock and Series A Preferred
Stock (and any other shares of the capital stock of the Company over which he,
she or it exercises voting control) and take such other actions as are
necessary, in such manner as shall be necessary or appropriate to ensure that
any vacancy on the Board of Directors of the Company (occurring for any reason)
shall be filled by the election to the Board of Directors of a replacement
designated by the party or parties who designated the director whose failure to
continue to serve causes the applicable vacancy.
(d) Covenants of the Company. The Company agrees to use its best
efforts to ensure that the rights granted hereunder are effective and that the
parties hereto enjoy the benefits thereof. Such actions include, without
limitation, the use of the Company's best efforts to cause the nomination and
election of the directors as provided above. The Company will not, by any
voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of
the terms to be performed hereunder by the Company, but will at all times in
good faith assist in the carrying out of all of the provisions of this Agreement
and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or in order to protect
the rights of the parties hereunder against impairment.
(e) Grant of Proxy. Should the provisions of this Agreement be
construed to constitute the granting of proxies, such proxies shall be deemed
coupled with an interest and are irrevocable for the term of this Agreement.
(f) Indemnification. The Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of
the Company shall at all times provide for the exculpation and indemnification
of the Board of Directors to the fullest extent permitted by the law of the
jurisdiction in which the Company is organized.
2. LEGENDS. In addition to any other legends required by law or
agreements between or among the parties, each certificate representing Founders'
or Investor's shares of Common Stock or Series A Preferred Stock shall be
endorsed by the Company with a legend reading as follows:
"THE SHARES EVIDENCED HEREBY ARE SUBJECT TO A VOTING AGREEMENT BY AND AMONG
THE COMPANY, THE FOUNDERS AND THE INVESTORS (A COPY OF WHICH MAY BE
OBTAINED FROM THE COMPANY), AND BY ACCEPTING ANY INTEREST IN SUCH SHARES
THE PERSON ACCEPTING SUCH INTEREST SHALL BE DEEMED TO AGREE TO AND SHALL
BECOME BOUND BY ALL THE PROVISIONS OF SAID VOTING AGREEMENT."

3. NO HEIGHTENED DUTY. Each party hereby acknowledges and agrees that no
fiduciary duty, duty of care, duty of loyalty or other heightened duty will be
created or imposed upon any party to any other party, the Company or any other
stockholder of the Company, by reason of this Agreement and/or any right or
obligation hereunder.
4. SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. The parties hereby acknowledge that it is
impossible to measure in money the damages that will accrue to a party hereto or
to its heirs, personal representatives, or assignees, by reason of a party's
failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement and therefore agree
that, in addition to and without limiting any remedies available at law, each of
the parties hereto will have full equitable remedies available to such party.
5. TERMINATION. This Agreement shall terminate in its entirety on the
earlier of (a) consummation of the sale of the Company's Common Stock in a firm
commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to a registration statement
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, that results in aggregate cash
proceeds to the Company of at least $20,000,000 (net of underwriting discounts
and commissions), (b) consummation of a transaction in which the Company shall
sell, convey, or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property
or business, or merge into or consolidate with any other corporation (other than
a wholly-owned subsidiary corporation), or effect any other transaction or
series of related transactions in which at least 50% of the voting power of the
Company is disposed of, or (c) mutual agreement in writing by all of the parties
hereto; provided that this Agreement shall not be terminated following a merger
effected solely for the purpose of changing the domicile of the Company.
6. AMENDMENTS; WAIVERS. Any term hereof may be amended or waived with the
written consent of the Company, holders of a majority in interest of the Series
A Preferred Stock (calculated on an as converted basis), and holders of a
majority in interest of the Common Stock held by the Founders (or their
respective successors and assigns); provided, however, that any such amendment
or waiver cannot be effected in accordance with this Section 6 if it adversely
affects the rights of any Founder or Investor hereunder or increases the
obligations of any Founder or Investor hereunder unless the affected party
expressly consents, in writing, to such amendment or waiver. Any amendment or
waiver effected in accordance with this Section 6 shall be binding upon the
Company, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock and any holder of the Common
Stock held by the Founders, and each of their respective successors and assigns.
7. NOTICES. Any notice required or permitted by this Agreement shall be
in writing and shall be deemed sufficient on the date of delivery, when
delivered personally or by overnight courier or sent by telegram or fax, or
forty-eight (48) hours after being deposited in the U.S. mail, as certified or
registered mail, with postage prepaid, and addressed to the party to be notified
at such party's address as set forth below or on Exhibit C hereto, or as
subsequently modified by written notice.
8. SEVERABILITY. Any provision of this Agreement which is invalid or
unenforceable shall be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or
unenforceability, provided that such invalidity or unenforceability does not
deny any party the material benefits of the transactions for which it has
bargained and such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect in any way
the remaining provisions hereof.

liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided
in this Agreement.
12. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement
between the parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter hereof, and any and
all other written or oral agreements relating to the subject matter hereof
