W I T N E S S E T H

WHEREAS, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement and in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) and the California Corporations Code (“CCC”), Parent and the Company will enter into a business combination transaction pursuant to which the Company will merge with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”);

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company has approved this Agreement and the Merger;

WHEREAS, the Boards of Directors of each of Parent and Merger Sub have (i) determined that the Merger is consistent with and in furtherance of the long-term business strategy of Parent and fair to, and in the best interests of, Parent, Merger Sub and their respective stockholders and (ii) approved and adopted this Agreement, the Merger, and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

WHEREAS, for Federal income tax purposes, the Merger is intended to qualify as a reorganization under the provisions of Section 368(a) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”);

WHEREAS, Ositis and ▇▇▇▇▇ own such number of shares of common stock, $0.001 par value, of the Company (the “Company Common Stock” or the “Company Stock”) as is set forth in Section 3.04 of the Company Disclosure Schedule (as defined in Article III) (Ositis and ▇▇▇▇▇ being referred to herein as the “Principal Stockholders”);

WHEREAS, as a condition and inducement to Parent’s and Merger Sub’s entering into this Agreement and incurring the obligations set forth herein, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, each of the Principal Stockholders is entering into a voting agreement with Parent (a “Voting Agreement”), dated the date hereof and substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A;

WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and as a condition and inducement to Parent’s willingness to enter into this Agreement, Ositis is entering into an Employment Agreement and a Non-Competition Agreement (each as defined in Section 6.04(b)); and

WHEREAS, certain terms used in this Agreement are defined in Section 10.02 of this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, and intending to be legally bound hereby, Parent, Merger Sub, the Company, Ositis and ▇▇▇▇▇ hereby agree as follows:

THE MERGER

SECTION 1.01 The Merger. Upon the terms of this Agreement and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, and in accordance with the DGCL and the CCC, at the Effective Time (as defined in Section 1.02), the Company shall be merged with and into Merger Sub. As a result of the Merger, the separate corporate existence of the Company shall cease, and Merger Sub shall continue as the surviving corporation of the Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”).

SECTION 1.02 Effective Time; Closing. As promptly as practicable following the satisfaction or, if permissible by the express terms of this Agreement, waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VII (or such other date as may be agreed by each of the parties hereto), the parties hereto shall cause the Merger to be consummated by (i) filing a certificate of merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in such form as is required by, and executed in accordance with, the relevant provisions of the DGCL and (ii) making all other filings and recordings required under the DGCL and the CCC. The term “Effective Time” means the date and time of the filing of the Certificate of Merger (or such later time as may be agreed by each of the parties hereto and specified in the Certificate of Merger). Immediately prior to the filing of the Certificate of Merger, a closing (the “Closing”) will be held at the offices of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, LLP (“▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇”), ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (or such other place as the parties may agree). The date on which the Closing shall occur is referred to herein as the “Closing Date.”

SECTION 1.03 Effect of the Merger. At and after the Effective Time, the Merger shall have the effects as set forth in the applicable provisions of the DGCL and the CCC.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, all the property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of each of the Company and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities, obligations, restrictions, disabilities and duties of each of the Company and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities, obligations, restrictions, disabilities and duties of the Surviving Corporation.

SECTION 1.04 Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.

(a) At the Effective Time, the Certificate of Incorporation of Merger Sub shall be the Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation.

(b) At the Effective Time, the Bylaws of Merger Sub shall be the Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation.

SECTION 1.05 Directors and Officers. The directors of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the initial directors of the Surviving Corporation, each to hold office in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Surviving Corporation, and the officers of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the initial officers of the Surviving Corporation, in each case until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified.

ARTICLE II

MERGER CONSIDERATION; EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES

SECTION 2.01 Merger Consideration.

(a) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the holders of any of the following securities:

(i) each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than any shares of Company Common Stock to be canceled pursuant to Section 2.01(a)(ii) and any Dissenting Shares (as defined in Section 2.07)) shall be converted into the right to receive (x) such number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the Common Exchange Ratio (as defined in Section 2.01(b)) and (y) such amount of Cash equal to the Common Cash Exchange Ratio (as defined in Section 2.01(b)); and

(ii) each share of Company Stock (or any other capital stock) held in the treasury of the Company and each share of Company Stock (or any other capital stock) owned by Parent or any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent or of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and extinguished without any conversion thereof and no payment or distribution shall be made with respect thereto.

(b) As used in this Agreement, the following terms have the following meanings:

(i) “Aggregate Merger Consideration” means the sum of the Stock Merger Consideration and the Cash Merger Consideration.

(ii) “Cash Merger Consideration” means $800,000, increased or decreased, as the case may be, pursuant to Section 2.08(b).

(iii) “Common Exchange Ratio” means the quotient (calculated to five decimal places) obtained by dividing (x) the Stock Merger Consideration by (y) the Fully Diluted Common Shares Amount.

(iv) “Common Cash Exchange Ratio” means the quotient (calculated to five decimal places) obtained by dividing (x) the Cash Merger Consideration by (y) the Fully Diluted Common Shares Amount.

(v) “Escrow Amount” means (x) the number of Parent Shares (rounded up to the next whole number) determined by multiplying the Stock Merger Consideration by 0.20 (the “Escrow Shares”) and (y) the amount of Cash (rounded up to the nearest dollar) determined by multiplying the Cash Merger Consideration by 0.20 (the “Escrow Cash”); provided, however, that in no event shall the Escrow Amount include any Parent Shares or Cash distributed to the previous holders of Company Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.08(e).

(vi) “Fully Diluted Common Shares Amount” means a number of shares of Company Common Stock equal to the sum of (x) the number of shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and (y) the number of shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon exercise, conversion and/or exchange of all securities issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that are exercisable, convertible and/or exchangeable for shares of Company Common Stock (or other capital stock of the Company), including, without limitation, (i) the Company Options (as defined in Section 2.04 below), whether or not exercisable and whether or not vested or contingent; provided, however, that the Company Options shall be included in this Section 2.01(b)(vi) only if and to the extent such Company Options are assumed by Parent or the Merger Sub in the Merger, and (ii) the Company Warrants (as defined in Section 2.04 below), whether or not exercisable and whether or not vested or contingent; provided, however, that only such Company Warrants pursuant to which the exercise price per one share of Company Common Stock is less than $0.20 shall be included in this Section 2.01(b)(vi).

(vii) “Stock Amount” means $2,324,000, increased or decreased, as the case may be, pursuant to Section 2.08(b).

(viii) “Stock Merger Consideration” means that number of shares of Parent Common Stock (the “Parent Shares”) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the Stock Amount by (y) $8.00, with any resulting fraction rounded up or down to the nearest whole share (with 0.5 being rounded up).

(c) If, during the period between the date hereof and the Effective Time, any change in the capital stock of Parent shall occur by reason of reclassification, recapitalization, stock split or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, or any stock dividend thereon with a record date during such period or any similar event, the Stock Merger Consideration, the Common Exchange Ratio and the Escrow Amount shall be correspondingly adjusted to the extent appropriate to reflect such stock dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, combination, exchange or readjustment of shares.

SECTION 2.02 Exchange of Certificates.

(a) Exchange Procedures. From and after the Effective Time, a bank or trust company to be designated by Parent shall act as exchange agent (the “Exchange Agent”) in effecting the exchange of the applicable Parent Shares for certificates which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Company Stock (“Company Share Certificates”) and which were converted into the right to receive the applicable Parent Shares pursuant to Section 2.01. As promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause to be deposited in trust with the Exchange Agent the Parent Shares less the Escrow Shares and less any Parent Shares that comprise part of the Deferred Payment (as defined in Section 2.09), and Parent and the Exchange Agent shall, as promptly as practicable, mail to each record holder of Company Share Certificates a letter of transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal”) in a form approved by Parent and instructions for use in surrendering such Company Share Certificates and receiving the applicable Parent Shares pursuant to Section 2.01.

Upon the surrender of each Company Share Certificate for cancellation to the Exchange Agent, together with a properly completed Letter of Transmittal and such other documents as may reasonably be required by Parent:

(i) Parent shall cause to be issued to the holder of such Company Share Certificate in exchange therefor (x) a separate stock certificate representing the Parent Shares to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.01 (and dividends or other distributions pursuant to Section 2.02(c), if any) (in the case of Ositis, less the Escrow Shares and less any Parent Shares that comprise part of the Deferred Payment) and (y) that portion of the Cash Merger Consideration to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.01 (in the case of Ositis, less the Escrow Cash and less any Cash that comprises part of the Deferred Payment); and

(ii) the Company Share Certificates so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled.

Until surrendered as contemplated by this Article II, each Company Share Certificate shall, subject to dissenters rights under the CCC and Section 2.07, be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon surrender the applicable Parent Shares and Cash with respect to the shares of Company Stock formerly represented thereby to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.01.

(b) Escrow Fund. Prior to or simultaneously with the Closing, Ositis and Parent shall enter into a Stock Escrow Agreement and a Cash Escrow Agreement (together,

the “Escrow Agreements”) with an escrow agent selected by Parent and reasonably acceptable to Ositis (the “Escrow Agent”) substantially in the forms of Exhibit C and Exhibit C-1 hereto. Pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreements, Parent shall deposit (i) one or more certificates in the name of the Escrow Agent representing the Escrow Shares into an escrow account and (ii) the Escrow Cash into an escrow account, which account or accounts are to be managed by the Escrow Agent (the escrow accounts collectively referred to as the “Escrow Account”). Any Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash in the Escrow Account are referred to herein as the “Escrow Fund”. The deposit of the Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash in the Escrow Account will occur at such times and in such amounts as is set forth in the second paragraph of this Section 2.02(b) and in the Escrow Agreements. In connection with such deposits of the Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash with the Escrow Agent and as of the time of each such deposit, Ositis will be deemed to have received and deposited with the Escrow Agent such Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash (plus any additional shares as may be issued upon any stock split, stock dividend or recapitalization effected by Parent after the Effective Time with respect to shares comprising part of the Escrow Fund) without any act of Ositis. Distributions of any Escrow Shares or Escrow Cash from the Escrow Account shall be governed by the terms and conditions of the Escrow Agreements. The approval of this Agreement and the Merger by Ositis shall constitute approval of the Escrow Agreements and of all the arrangements relating thereto, including, without limitation, the placement of the Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash in escrow. No portion of the Escrow Fund shall be contributed in respect of any Company Option (as defined in Section 2.04(a)) or any warrant or other security exercisable or convertible into Company Stock.

The Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash shall consist exclusively of Parent Shares and Cash otherwise payable to Ositis pursuant to Section 2.09. The Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash shall be deposited in the Escrow Fund in three equal installments on each of the days that are six months, nine months and twelve months following the Closing Date, and shall consist exclusively of Parent Shares and Cash that, on the date set for such deposit, constitute part of the Deferred Payment that is otherwise payable by Parent to Ositis pursuant to Section 2.09; provided, however, that any such deposit shall be made only if Ositis remains employed by Parent or any of its direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries on the date set for such deposit or otherwise receives payment of the applicable portion of the Deferred Payment; and provided further that if Ositis receives any portion of the Deferred Payment prior to the days that are six months, nine months and twelve months following the Closing Date, then, upon any such receipt, the portion of the Deferred Payment received by Ositis that constitutes Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash shall be deposited immediately into the Escrow Fund.

(c) Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Parent Shares. No dividends or other distributions declared or made after the Effective Time with respect to Parent Shares comprising part of the Aggregate Merger Consideration with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Company Share Certificate with respect to the Parent Shares represented thereby until the holder of such Company Share Certificate shall surrender such Company Share Certificate in accordance with this Section 2.02 (at which time such holder shall be entitled to receive all such dividends or other distributions).

(d) No Further Rights in Company Stock. The Parent Shares and Cash issued upon the conversion of shares of Company Stock in accordance with the terms hereof

shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Company Stock.

(e) No Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued upon the conversion and exchange of Company Share Certificates, and no holder of Company Share Certificates shall be entitled to receive a fractional share of Parent Common Stock. In the event that any holder of Company Stock would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share of Parent Common Stock (after aggregating all shares and fractional shares of Parent Common Stock issuable to such holder), then such holder will receive an aggregate number of shares of Parent Common Stock rounded up or down to the nearest whole share (with 0.5 being rounded up).

(f) No Liability. Neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation shall be liable to any holder of shares of Company Stock for any such shares of Parent Common Stock (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto) or cash properly and legally delivered to a public official pursuant to any abandoned property, escheat or similar Law (as defined in Section 3.06(a)).

(g) Withholding Rights. Each of the Exchange Agent, the Surviving Corporation and Parent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of shares of Company Stock such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign Tax (as defined in Section 3.15(c)) Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by the Exchange Agent, the Surviving Corporation or Parent, as the case may be, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the holder of the shares of Company Stock in respect of which such deduction and withholding were made by the Exchange Agent, the Surviving Corporation or Parent, as the case may be.

(h) Lost Certificates. If any Company Share Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Company Share Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by the Surviving Corporation, the posting by such person of a bond, in such reasonable amount as the Surviving Corporation may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Company Share Certificate, Parent shall issue and deliver in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Share Certificate, the applicable Parent Shares (and dividends or other distributions pursuant to Section 2.02(c)) and Cash to which such person is entitled pursuant to the provisions of this Article II.

(i) Return of Parent Shares. Promptly following the end of the fifth full calendar month after the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent shall return to Parent all of the remaining Parent Shares in the Exchange Agent’s possession and the Exchange Agent’s duties shall terminate. Thereafter, upon the surrender of a Company Share Certificate to Parent, together with a properly executed Letter of Transmittal and such other documents as may reasonably be required by Parent, and subject to applicable abandoned property, escheat and similar Laws, the holder of such Company Share Certificate shall be entitled to receive in

exchange therefor the applicable Parent Shares (and dividends or other distributions pursuant to Section 2.02(c)) and Cash without any interest thereon.

SECTION 2.03 Stock Transfer Books. Commencing on the date hereof, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and there shall be no further registration of transfers of shares of Company Stock thereafter on the records of the Company other than as required to comply with the terms of this Agreement and except as set forth on the Company Disclosure Schedule. From and after the Effective Time, each holder of a Company Share Certificate shall cease to have any rights as a stockholder of the Company, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or by Law.

SECTION 2.04 Company Stock Options; Company Warrants.

(a) Immediately following the Effective Time, all options to purchase Common Stock issued by the Company pursuant to the Stock Plan (as defined in Section 3.04(b)) or otherwise, whether vested or unvested and whether exercisable or unexercisable (each a “Company Option”) shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the Company or the holder thereof, be cancelled. Neither Parent nor Merger Sub shall assume any of the Company Options in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(b) At the Effective Time, each warrant to acquire shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (each a “Company Warrant”), whether or not contingent or earned and whether exercisable or unexercisable, that does not terminate by its terms at or prior to the Effective Time, shall be converted into a warrant to acquire Cash and shares of Parent Common Stock in accordance with its terms. Each Company Warrant so converted shall continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions set forth in such Company Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that (i) such Company Warrant shall be exercisable (or become exercisable in accordance with its terms) for (x) that amount of Cash equal to the product of the number of shares of Company Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such Company Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Common Cash Exchange Ratio and (y) that number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole number) equal to the product of the number of shares of Company Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such Company Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Common Exchange Ratio, and (ii) the per share exercise price for the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such assumed Company Warrant shall be equal to the exercise price per share of Company Stock at which such Company Warrant was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by the Common Exchange Ratio (with such new exercise price rounded up to the nearest whole cent). All Company Warrants issued and outstanding as of the date of this Agreement are listed on Schedule 3.04 of the Company Disclosure Schedule. An updated Schedule 3.04 of Company Warrants shall be delivered by the Company to Parent on the Closing Date.

SECTION 2.05 Reserved.

SECTION 2.06 Securities Laws Issues. Parent shall issue the shares of Parent Common Stock as provided in this Agreement pursuant to a “private placement” exemption or exemptions from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and/or Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act and an exemption from qualification under the laws of the State of California and other applicable state securities laws. Parent and the Company shall comply with all applicable provisions of, and rules under, the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws in connection with the offering and issuance of the shares of Parent Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement. Such shares of Parent Common Stock will be “restricted securities” under the Federal and state securities laws and cannot be offered or resold except pursuant to registration under the Securities Act or an available exemption from registration.

SECTION 2.07 Dissenting Shares.

(a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Company Stock that are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and which are held by stockholders who have exercised and perfected dissenters rights for such shares of Company Stock in accordance with the CCC (collectively, the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into or represent the right to receive the applicable Parent Shares and Cash. Such stockholders shall be entitled to receive payment of the appraised value of such shares of Company Stock held by them in accordance with the CCC, unless and until such stockholders fail to perfect or effectively withdraw or otherwise lose their dissenters rights under the CCC. All Dissenting Shares held by stockholders who shall have failed to perfect or who effectively shall have withdrawn or lost their right to appraisal of such shares of Company Stock under the CCC shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted into and to have become exchangeable for, as of the Effective Time, the right to receive the applicable Parent Shares (and dividends or other distributions pursuant to Section 2.02(c), if any) and Cash, without any interest thereon, upon the surrender, in the manner provided in Section 2.02 (including, with respect to Ositis, the provisions for both the Escrow Shares and any Parent Shares and Cash comprising part of the Deferred Payment), of the corresponding Company Share Certificate.

(b) The Company shall give Parent (i) prompt notice of any demands for appraisal received by the Company, withdrawals of such demands, and any other related instruments served pursuant to the CCC and received by the Company and (ii) after the Effective Time, the opportunity to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal under the CCC. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal or offer to settle or settle any such demands.

SECTION 2.08 Determination of Company Net Working Capital, Transaction Expenses and Debt.

(a) Pre-Closing Company Certificate. No later than three business days and no earlier than five business days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall prepare a certificate (the “Pre-Closing Company Certificate”) that contains: (i) an estimated balance sheet of the Company (the “Closing Balance Sheet”) as of the Closing Date, (ii) a calculation of the estimated Company Net Working Capital (as defined below in this Section 2.08) as of the

Closing Date, (iii) an estimate of the Company Transaction Expenses (as defined below in this Section 2.08) as of the Closing Date and (iv) an estimate of the Company Debt (as defined below in this Section 2.08) as of the Closing Date. The Company shall deliver the Pre-Closing Company Certificate to Parent no later than three business days prior to the Closing Date. Following receipt of the Pre-Closing Company Certificate, Parent shall have the right to review the Pre-Closing Company Certificate. No later than one business day prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Parent a final certificate (the “Closing Company Certificate”) identical to the Pre-Closing Company Certificate; provided, however, that the Closing Company Certificate shall include any revisions that are mutually agreed upon by Parent and the Company. To the extent a dispute arises regarding the Company Net Working Capital or Company Debt, such dispute shall be submitted to such internationally recognized firm of independent public accountants mutually agreeable to Parent and the Company (the “Independent Auditors”) for resolution within three days. The Closing Balance Sheet and the calculation of Company Net Working Capital, Company Transaction Expenses and Company Debt (x) shall be prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP applied on a consistent basis with those used in preparing the Annual Financial Statements and Interim Financial Statements (as defined in Section 3.08) and (y) shall include the same line items as the Reference Balance Sheet (as defined in Section 3.08).

(b) Adjustment at Closing to the Stock Amount and the Cash Merger Consideration.

(i) Company Net Working Capital Adjustments. If and to the extent the Company Net Working Capital as shown in the Closing Company Certificate is not negative $595,000 (the “Threshold Net Working Capital”), the Stock Amount and the Cash Merger Consideration shall collectively be (i) reduced by $1 for every $1 the Company Net Working Capital is less than the Threshold Net Working Capital; and (ii) increased by $1 for every $1 that the Company Net Working Capital is greater than the Threshold Net Working Capital (both (i) and (ii), the “Closing Net Working Capital Adjustment”). Seventy-five percent (75%) of any such Closing Net Working Capital Adjustment shall be effected by reducing or increasing (as applicable) the Stock Amount, and twenty-five percent (25%) of any such Closing Net Working Capital Adjustment shall be effected by reducing or increasing (as applicable) the Cash Merger Consideration.

(ii) Company Transaction Expenses Adjustments. If and to the extent the Company Transaction Expenses as shown in the Closing Company Certificate are not $350,000 (the “Threshold Transaction Expenses”), the Stock Amount and the Cash Merger Consideration shall collectively be (i) reduced by $1 for every $1 the Company Transaction Expenses exceed the Threshold Transaction Expenses (the “Closing Expense Deduction”); and (ii) increased by $1 for every $1 that the Company Transaction Expenses are less than the Threshold Transaction Expenses (the “Closing Expense Addition”). Seventy-five percent (75%) of any such Closing Expense Deduction or Closing Expense Addition shall be effected by reducing or increasing (as applicable) the Stock Amount, and twenty-five percent (25%) of any such Closing Expense Deduction or Closing Expense Addition shall be effected by reducing or increasing (as applicable) the Cash Merger Consideration.

(iii) Company Debt Adjustments. If and to the extent the Company Debt as shown in the Closing Company Certificate is not $1,150,000 (the “Threshold

Debt”), the Stock Amount and the Cash Merger Consideration shall collectively be (i) reduced by $1 for every $1 the Company Debt exceeds the Threshold Debt (the “Closing Debt Deduction”); and (ii) increased by $1 for every $1 that the Company Debt is less than the Threshold Debt (the “Closing Debt Addition”). Seventy-five percent (75%) of any such Closing Debt Deduction or Closing Debt Addition shall be effected by reducing or increasing (as applicable) the Stock Amount, and twenty-five percent (25%) of any such Closing Debt Deduction or Closing Debt Addition shall be effected by reducing or increasing (as applicable) the Cash Merger Consideration.

(a) Post-Closing Review; Preparation of Post-Closing Certificate. As soon as practicable, but in no event later than 90 days following the Closing Date, Parent shall prepare a certificate that sets forth the Company Net Working Capital, Company Transaction Expenses and Company Debt as of the Closing Date (the “Post-Closing Certificate”).

(b) Review of Post-Closing Certificate. Parent shall deliver a copy of the Post-Closing Certificate to Ositis promptly after it has been prepared. After receipt of the Post-Closing Certificate, Ositis shall have 60 days to review the Post-Closing Certificate. Unless Ositis delivers written notice to Parent on or prior to the 60th day after receipt of the Post-Closing Certificate stating that he has objections to the Post-Closing Certificate (and setting forth in reasonable detail his calculation of disputed items), Ositis shall be deemed to have accepted and agreed to the Post-Closing Certificate. If Ositis so notifies Parent of his objections to the Post-Closing Certificate, the parties shall, within 45 days (or such longer period as the parties may mutually agree) following such notice (the “Resolution Period”), attempt to resolve their differences, and any resolution by them as to any disputed amounts that are communicated in writing to the Escrow Agent jointly by the parties shall be final, binding and conclusive.

Any amounts remaining in dispute at the conclusion of the Resolution Period (the “Unresolved Items”) shall be submitted for resolution to the Independent Auditors within ten days after the expiration of the Resolution Period. The Independent Auditors’ resolution of the Unresolved Items shall be made within 45 days of the submission of the Unresolved Items thereto (if practicable), shall be set forth in a written statement delivered to Parent and Ositis and shall be final, binding and conclusive, absent fraud or manifest error. The term “Adjusted Amounts,” as used in this Agreement, shall mean the definitive Company Net Working Capital, Company Transaction Expenses and Company Debt agreed to in writing (or deemed agreed to) by Parent and Ositis or, if Unresolved Items are submitted to the Independent Auditors, such definitive Company Net Working Capital, Company Transaction Expenses and Company Debt, as adjusted to reflect the determination of the Independent Auditors.

(i) Post-Closing Company Net Working Capital Adjustments. If the Company Net Working Capital as shown in the Adjusted Amount is less than the Company Net Working Capital as shown in the Closing Company Certificate (the difference in amountsreferred to as the “Company Net Working Capital Shortfall”), then Parent shall deliver written notice to the Escrow Agent and Ositis specifying the amount of the Company Net Working Capital Shortfall, and the Escrow Agent shall, in accordance with the terms of the Escrow

Agreements, deliver to Parent out of the Escrow Fund (as defined in Section 2.02(b)) the amount of Cash and Parent Shares (in accordance with the provisions of the Escrow Agreements) equal to the amount of such Company Net Working Capital Shortfall. If the Company Net Working Capital as shown in the Adjusted Amount is greater than the Company Net Working Capital as shown in the Closing Company Certificate (the difference in amounts referred to as the “Company Net Working Capital Excess”), then Parent shall promptly, but in no event later than ten (10) days following the determination of the Company Net Working Capital Excess, deliver written notice to Ositis specifying the amount of such Company Net Working Capital Excess and Parent shall deliver, together with such notice, such Company Net Working Capital Excess, in the form of Parent Shares and Cash, to the previous holders of Company Common Stock. The delivery by Parent of Parent Shares and Cash pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall be effected such that the Parent Shares (with each such Parent Share valued at $8.00 for purposes of such calculation) shall comprise seventy-five percent (75%) of the amount of such Company Net Working Capital Excess, and Cash shall comprise twenty-five percent (25%) of the amount of such Company Net Working Capital Excess. No such Parent Shares or Cash shall be added to the Escrow Account or made subject to Section 2.09.

(ii) Post-Closing Company Transaction Expenses Adjustments. If the Company Transaction Expenses as shown in the Adjusted Amount are less than the Company Transaction Expenses as shown in the Closing Company Certificate (the difference in amounts referred to as the “Company Transaction Expenses Shortfall”), then Parent shall promptly, but in no event later than ten (10) days following the determination of the Company Transaction Expenses Shortfall, deliver written notice to Ositis specifying the amount of the Company Transaction Expenses Shortfall, and Parent shall deliver, together with such notice, such Company Transaction Expenses Shortfall, in the form of Parent Shares and Cash, to the previous holders of Company Common Stock. The delivery by Parent of Parent Shares and Cash pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall be effected such that the Parent Shares (with each such Parent Share valued at $8.00 for purposes of such calculation) shall comprise seventy-five percent (75%) of the amount of such Company Transaction Expenses Shortfall, and Cash shall comprise twenty-five percent (25%) of the amount of such Company Transaction Expenses Shortfall. No such Parent Shares or Cash shall be added to the Escrow Account or made subject to Section 2.09. If the Company Transaction Expenses as shown in the Adjusted Amount are greater than the Company Transaction Expenses as shown in the Closing Company Certificate (the difference in amounts referred to as the “Company Transaction Expenses Excess”), then Parent shall deliver written notice to the Escrow Agent and Ositis specifying the amount of such Company Transaction Expenses Excess and the Escrow Agent shall, in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreements, deliver to Parent out of the Escrow Fund (as defined in Section 2.02(b)) the amount of Cash and Parent Shares (in accordance with the provisions of the Escrow Agreements) equal to the amount of such Company Transaction Expenses Excess.

(iii) Post-Closing Company Debt Adjustments. If the Company Debt as shown in the Adjusted Amount is less than the Company Debt as shown in the Closing Company Certificate (the difference in amounts referred to as the “Company Debt Shortfall”), then Parent shall promptly, but in no event later than ten (10) days following the determination of the Company Debt Shortfall, deliver written notice to Ositis specifying the amount of the Company Debt Shortfall, and Parent shall deliver, together with such notice, such Company Debt

Shortfall, in the form of Parent Shares and Cash, to the previous holders of Company Common Stock. The delivery by Parent of Parent Shares and Cash pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall be effected such that the Parent Shares (with each such Parent Share valued at $8.00 for purposes of such calculation) shall comprise seventy-five percent (75%) of the amount of such Company Debt Shortfall, and Cash shall comprise twenty-five percent (25%) of the amount of such Company Debt Shortfall. No such Parent Shares or Cash shall be added to the Escrow Account or made subject to Section 2.09. If the Company Debt as shown in the Adjusted Amount is greater than the Company Debt as shown in the Closing Company Certificate (the difference in amounts referred to as the “Company Debt Excess”), then Parent shall deliver written notice to the Escrow Agent and Ositis specifying the amount of such Company Debt Excess and the Escrow Agent shall, in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreements, deliver to Parent out of the Escrow Fund (as defined in Section 2.02(b)) the amount of Cash and Parent Shares (in accordance with the provisions of the Escrow Agreements) equal to the amount of such Company Debt Excess.

(iv) In the event that a delivery to Parent out of the Escrow Fund in connection with a Company Net Working Capital Shortfall, Company Transaction Expenses Excess or Company Debt Excess cannot be made in full due to an insufficiency in the Escrow Amount at such time, such delivery will be made (to the maximum extent possible) immediately upon the contribution to the Escrow Fund of additional Escrow Shares and Escrow Cash by Ositis pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.02(b), Section 2.09 and the Escrow Agreements. For avoidance of doubt, the parties acknowledge the necessity of the immediately preceding sentence as a result of the possibility that contributions to the Escrow Fund by Ositis (including the initial contribution to the Escrow Fund) may be made subsequent to the determination of the Adjusted Amounts.

(f) Cooperation of Parties. During the calculation of Company Net Working Capital, Company Transaction Expenses and Company Debt prior to or following the Closing and the period of any review or dispute within the contemplation of this Agreement, (i) each party hereto shall provide, or cause to be provided, to the other parties and their authorized representatives, all reasonably requested access to all relevant books, records, workpapers and employees of the Company, Merger Sub or Parent, whether then-employed by the Company or Parent, as the case may be, to the extent such materials or persons are within their possession or control and the parties shall cooperate in full with each other and their authorized representatives, including the provision on a timely basis of all information necessary or useful.

(g) Independent Auditors. In acting under this Section 2.08, the Independent Auditors shall be entitled to the privileges and immunities of arbitrators. Each party agrees to execute, if requested by the Independent Auditors, a reasonable engagement letter and to provide all reasonable assistance to the Independent Auditors in furtherance of the provisions set forth herein. All fees and expenses relating to the work, if any, to be performed by the Independent Auditors (the “Independent Auditors’ Fees”) shall be borne pro rata by Parent and Ositis in proportion to the allocation of the dollar amount of the Unresolved Items made by the Independent Auditors such that the prevailing party or parties pays a lesser proportion of the feesand expenses. All amounts payable by Ositis pursuant to this Section 2.08(g) in excess of $50,000 shall be paid out of the Escrow Fund. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein,

in no event shall any amounts payable by Ositis exceed $50,000 and amounts available out of the Escrow Fund.

(h) Definitions. As used in this Agreement, the following terms have the following meanings:

(i) Company Net Working Capital means (x) the sum of accounts receivables, prepaid expenses, inventory and cash, cash equivalents and short term investments less (y) the sum of accounts payable and accrued expenses, excluding any Company Transaction Expenses; provided, however, that any accounts receivable and any accrual for amounts due pursuant to the Co-Branded Software Agreement between Ositis Software, Inc. and Starband Communications Inc., dated January 4, 2001, as amended, shall not be included in the calculation of Company Net Working Capital.

(ii) Company Transaction Expenses means the fees of Advisor (as defined in Section 3.22) and of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Godward LLP incurred in connection with the Merger.

(iii) Company Debt means the dollar amount of the Company’s short-term and long-term debt for borrowed money, including but not limited to equipment lease loans, bank debt and notes payable to the Principal Stockholders but excluding any operating leases.

SECTION 2.09 Deferred Payment.

(a) Eighty percent (80%) of the total amount of the Cash Merger Consideration and eighty percent (80%) of the total amount of the Stock Merger Consideration payable to Ositis (the “Founding Stockholder”) (other than any Parent Shares or Cash payable to the Founding Stockholder pursuant to Section 2.08(e)) shall not be paid to the Founding Stockholder pursuant to Section 2.02 but shall be deferred and paid to the Founding Stockholder pursuant to the terms of subclause (b) below and subclause (c) below (the “Deferred Payment”). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Deferred Payment shall be subject to the escrow provisions of Section 2.02(b) and a portion thereof shall constitute the Escrow Fund as set forth in Section 2.02(b) and the Escrow Agreements.

(b) Provided that the Founding Stockholder remains employed by Parent or any of its direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, one-third of the Deferred Payment (less any contributions to be made to the Escrow Fund by the Founding Stockholder pursuant to Section 2.02(b)) shall be paid to the Founding Stockholder by Parent six months following the Closing Date and the remaining portion of the Deferred Payment shall be paid by Parent to the Founding Stockholder in two equal installments (at each installment, less any contributions to be made to the Escrow Fund by the Founding Stockholder pursuant to Section 2.02(b)) every three months thereafter until fully paid on the first anniversary of the Closing Date. Each such payment shall consist of the same proportion of Parent Shares and Cash as is represented by the proportions that Stock Merger Consideration and Cash Merger Consideration represent of Aggregate Merger Consideration (with each such Parent Share valued at $8.00 for purposes of such calculation). Should Parent terminate Founding Stockholder’s employment

without Cause, should Founding Stockholder resign his employment due to Good Reason, or should Founding Stockholder’s employment cease due to death or Permanent Disability, then all unpaid portions of the Deferred Payment shall (subject to Section 2.02(b)) immediately be paid to the Founding Stockholder. Should Founding Stockholder’s employment terminate due to termination by the Company with Cause or voluntary resignation not for Good Reason, then all unpaid portions of the Deferred Payment shall immediately be forfeited and no additional amounts shall thereafter become payable to the Founding Stockholder under this Section 2.09. For purposes of this Section 2.09, “Cause” shall mean: an intentional unauthorized use or disclosure by the Founding Stockholder of Parent’s confidential information or trade secrets; a material failure by the Founding Stockholder to comply with Parent’s written policies or rules, provided that the Founding Stockholder is given written notice of his failure to comply and a reasonable opportunity to cure such failure; the Founding Stockholder’s conviction of, or plea of “guilty” or “no contest” to, a felony under the laws of the United States or any state thereof; or the Founding Stockholder’s gross misconduct. The Founding Stockholder’s death or Permanent Disability shall not constitute Cause. For purposes of this Section 2.09, “Good Reason” shall mean: (i) a significant reduction of the Founding Stockholder’s duties, position or responsibilities, or the removal of the Founding Stockholder from such position and responsibilities at Parent, unless Founding Stockholder is provided with a comparable position (i.e., a position of equal or greater organizational level, duties, authority and status), provided that in the case of a reduction in duties, position or responsibilities Parent is given written notice of such reduction and a reasonable opportunity to cure; (ii) a significant cumulative reduction in either Base Salary or target bonus during any twelve (12) month period of at least fifteen percent (15%) by Parent, provided that in the event the base salary or target bonus (whichever is applicable) of all senior management are similarly reduced, such significant reduction will not constitute Good Reason; (iii) the relocation of the Founding Stockholder to a facility more than thirty (30) miles from Parent’s offices in Sunnyvale, California or (iv) Parent’s filing of a bankruptcy petition or an assignment for the benefit of creditors is made concerning Parent’s assets. For purposes of this Section 2.09, “Permanent Disability” shall mean the Founding Stockholder’s inability to perform the essential functions of the Founding Stockholder’s position, with or without reasonable accommodation, for a period of at least 120 consecutive days because of a physical or mental impairment.

(c) The Deferred Payment constitutes payment for the Company Common Stock held by the Founding Stockholder upon Closing of the Merger. In the event that a portion of the Deferred Payment is not paid pursuant to subclause (b), the parties hereto agree to report such reduction as a purchase price reduction for all relevant purposes.

(d) For avoidance of doubt, all portions of the Deferred Payment comprising Escrow Shares or Escrow Cash shall be deposited into the Escrow Account in accordance with Section 2.02(b) and the Escrow Agreement.

SECTION 2.10 Employee Bonuses and other Payments.

(a) For purposes of this Section 2.10, a Company employee who accepts employment with Parent or any of its direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries and who is not designated by Parent as a transition employee shall be referred to as an “Eligible Employee.” Parent agrees to grant to all Eligible Employees in the aggregate cash bonuses in an

aggregate amount of $200,000 and to award stock bonuses for 72,625 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “2.10 Award”). Allocations of cash and stock pursuant to the 2.10 Award shall be made among Eligible Employees in amounts similar to the allocations set forth on a written summary previously provided by Parent to the Company. Eligible Employees will not have to pay for the stock bonus awards under this Section 2.10. Each Eligible Employee receiving cash and stock bonus awards pursuant to the foregoing sentence will vest in the 2.10 Award provided the Eligible Employees remain employed by Parent or any of its direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries over the twelve month period from the Closing. Each Eligible Employee who remains employed with Parent or any of its direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries will receive ¼ of the cash and ¼ of the stock bonus awards allocated to such individual immediately upon each successive three month anniversary of the Closing beginning with the first installment on the three month anniversary of the Closing; provided in each case that he is still employed by Parent or any of its direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries on the applicable grant date. The stock bonus awards will be granted under and subject to the terms and conditions applicable to shares awarded under Parent’s 2000 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), as described in the Plan and the stock bonus agreement.

(b) If an Eligible Employee’s employment is terminated by Parent due to a layoff, restructuring, relocation or reorganization and not for Cause, then such employee will immediately receive a full distribution of the remaining unpaid cash and stock bonus awards allocated to him. If an Eligible Employee’s employment is terminated by Parent for any other reason but not for Cause, then such employee will immediately receive a distribution of the remaining unpaid cash and stock bonus awards that would have been distributed to him had he remained employed through the next three-month vesting date. If an Eligible Employee’s employment ceases due to voluntary resignation or termination for Cause, then such employee will immediately forfeit the remaining unpaid cash and stock bonus awards allocated to him. Amounts of cash and stock bonus awards forfeited by an Eligible Employee pursuant to this subsection 2.10(b) shall be referred to as “Forfeitures.”

(c) Forfeitures shall be allocated to all remaining Eligible Employees who are still employed by Parent on the 12 month anniversary of the Closing pro rata in accordance with each such Eligible Employee’s portion of the aggregate 2.10 Awards originally allocated to such Eligible Employees. However, if at any time prior to the twelve month anniversary of the Closing, the number of Eligible Employees falls to ten, then on the first date that the number of Eligible Employees has fallen to ten, then any Forfeitures shall be allocated to those ten Eligible Employees pro rata in accordance with each such Eligible Employee’s portion of the aggregate 2.10 Awards originally allocated to such Eligible Employee, and such Forfeitures shall be distributed to such Eligible Employees as soon as practicable thereafter.

(d) Solely for purposes of this Section 2.10, “Cause” means: (i) an unauthorized use or disclosure of Parent’s confidential information or trade secrets, (ii) a material failure to comply with Parent’s written policies or rules, (iii) conviction of, or plea of “guilty” or “no contest” to, a felony under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or (iv) gross misconduct.

(e) Company employees who are not Eligible Employees shall be allocated severance payments and retention bonuses in cash in an amount similar to the amounts set forth on a written summary previously provided by Parent to the Company.

ARTICLE III

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY

The Company hereby represents and warrants to Parent and Merger Sub that the statements contained in this Article III are true and correct as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Effective Time (except for any such representation and warranty that expressly is made as of a specific date, which such representation and warranty shall be true and correct as of such date), subject to such qualifications as set forth in the disclosure schedule delivered by the Company to Parent and Merger Sub concurrently with the execution of this Agreement (the “Company Disclosure Schedule”). The Company Disclosure Schedule shall be arranged according to specific sections in this Article III and shall provide exceptions to, or otherwise qualify in reasonable detail, only the corresponding section in this Article III and any other section hereof where it is reasonably apparent, upon a reading of such disclosure, that the disclosure would also qualify or apply to such other section.

SECTION 3.01 Organization and Qualification. The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of California and has all requisite corporate power and authority to own, lease and otherwise hold and operate its properties and other assets and to carry on its business as it is now being conducted, except where the failure to be so organized, existing or in good standing or to have such corporate power and authority has not had, and could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect (as defined below). The Company is duly qualified or licensed as a foreign corporation to do business, and is in good standing, in each jurisdiction where the character of the properties owned, leased or operated by it or the nature of its business makes such qualification or licensing necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or licensed and in good standing has not had, and could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect. Section 3.01 of the Company Disclosure Schedule sets forth each jurisdiction where the Company is qualified or licensed as a foreign corporation and each other jurisdiction in which the Company owns or leases real property or has employees or engages independent contractors. The term “Company Material Adverse Effect” means any event, change, violation, inaccuracy, circumstance or effect (regardless of whether or not such events, changes, violations, inaccuracies, circumstances or effects are inconsistent with the representations or warranties made by the Company and its Subsidiaries in this Agreement) that is, or could reasonably be expected to be, individually or in the aggregate, materially adverse to the business, financial condition or results of operations of the Company; provided that none of the following (individually or in combination) shall be deemed to constitute, or shall be taken into account in determining whether there has been or could reasonably be expected to be, a Company Material Adverse Effect: any events, changes, violations, inaccuracies, circumstances or effects resulting from or arising in connection with (a) any changes in general economic or business conditions that do not materially

disproportionately impact the Company, (b) any changes or events affecting the industry in which the Company operates that do not materially disproportionately impact the Company or (c) the announcement or pendency of the Merger.

SECTION 3.02 Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws. The Company has heretofore made available to Parent a complete and correct copy of (a) the Articles of Incorporation and the Bylaws of the Company including all amendments thereto, (b) the minute books containing all consents, actions and meeting of the stockholders of the Company and the Company’s Board of Directors and any committees thereof, and (c) the stock transfer books of the Company setting forth all issuances or transfers of any capital stock of the Company. Such Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws are in full force and effect. The Company is not in violation of any of the provisions of its Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws.

(b) Each Subsidiary is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation. Each Subsidiary is duly qualified or licensed to conduct business and is in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction in which the nature of its business or the ownership or leasing of its properties requires such qualification or licensing, except where the failure to be so qualified, licensed or in good standing has not had, and could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect. Each Subsidiary has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as it is now being conducted and to own, lease and otherwise use the assets and properties owned and used by it. The Company has delivered to the Parent complete and accurate copies of the charter, Bylaws or other organizational documents of each Subsidiary. No Subsidiary is in default under or in violation of any provision of its charter, Bylaws or other organizational documents. All of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of each Subsidiary are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, nonassessable and free of preemptive rights. All shares of each Subsidiary are held of record or owned beneficially by either the Company or another Subsidiary and are held or owned free and clear of any restriction on transfer (other than restrictions under federal or state securities laws), claim, security interest, option, warrant, right, lien or call right. There are no outstanding or authorized options, warrants, rights, agreements or commitments to which the Company or any Subsidiary is a party or which are binding on any of them providing for the issuance, disposition or acquisition of any

capital stock of any Subsidiary. There are no outstanding stock appreciation, phantom stock or similar rights with respect to any Subsidiary. There are no voting trusts, proxies or other agreements or understandings with respect to the voting of any capital stock of any Subsidiary.

(c) The Company does not control, directly or indirectly, or have any direct or indirect equity participation or similar interest in any corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other business association which is not a Subsidiary. There are no contractual obligations of the Company to make any equity investment in, or loan or capital contribution to, any other person.

SECTION 3.04 Capitalization.

(a) The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 40,000,000 shares of Company Common Stock. As of the date hereof, (i) 20,007,335 shares of Company Common Stock are issued and outstanding, all of which are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, (ii) no shares of Company Common Stock are held in the treasury of the Company and (iii) 1,767,993 shares of Company Common Stock are reserved for future issuance pursuant to outstanding Company Options. As of the date hereof, the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock are owned as set forth in Section 3.04(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedule. Section 3.04(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedule also provides an accurate and complete description of the terms of each repurchase option or right of first refusal which is held by the Company and to which any of such shares is subject.

(b) The Company has reserved 5,000,000 shares of Company Common Stock for issuance under the Company’s 2000 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan (the “Stock Plan”) of which options to purchase 1,767,993 shares of Company Common Stock are outstanding as of the date of this Agreement.

The cancellation of Company Options in accordance with Section 2.06 hereunder and the failure by Parent to assume any Company Options will not constitute a breach of the Stock Plan or of any agreement entered into pursuant to such plan. Neither the consummation of transactions contemplated by this Agreement, nor any action taken or to be taken by Company in connection with such transactions, will result in the inability of Parent after the Effective Time to exercise any right or benefit held by Company prior to the Effective Time with respect to any shares of Company Common Stock previously issued upon exercise of a Company Option, including, without limitation, the right to repurchase an optionee’s unvested shares on termination of such optionee’s employment.

(d) Except as described in Section 3.04(b) above or as set forth in Sections 3.04(b) and 3.04(c) of the Company Disclosure Schedule, there are no options, warrants or other rights, agreements, arrangements or commitments of any character, whether or not contingent, relating to the issued or unissued capital stock of the Company or obligating the Company to issue or sell any share of capital stock of, or other equity interest in, the Company. All shares of Company Stock so subject to issuance, upon issuance in accordance with the terms and conditions specified in the instruments pursuant to which they are issuable, will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. The holders of Company Options and Company Warrants have been or will be given, or shall have properly waived, any required notice of the Merger prior to the Effective Time.

(e) The Company does not have outstanding any bonds, debentures, notes or other obligations the holders of which have the right to vote (or which are convertible into or exercisable for securities having the right to vote) with the stockholders of the Company on any matter.

(f) All of the securities offered, sold or issued by the Company (i) have been offered, sold or issued in compliance with the requirements of the Federal securities laws and any applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws, and (ii) are not subject to any preemptive right, right of first refusal, right of first offer or right of rescission.

(g) The Company has never repurchased, redeemed or otherwise reacquired any shares of capital stock or other securities of the Company or any Subsidiary, other than unvested securities in the ordinary course upon termination of employment or consultancy. There are no outstanding contractual obligations of the Company to repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any share of capital stock of, or other equity interest in, the Company. Except for the Voting Agreements, there are no stockholder agreements, voting trusts or other agreements or understandings to which the Company is a party, or of which the Company is aware, that (i) relate to the voting, registration or disposition of any securities of the Company, (ii) grant to any person or group of persons the right to elect, or designate or nominate for election, a director to the Board of Directors of the Company, or (iii) grant to any person or group of persons information rights.

INDEMNIFICATION

SECTION 9.01 Survival of Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties of the Company and the Company Stockholders contained in this Agreement and the Stockholder Certificates and any other document or certificate relating hereto (collectively, the “Acquisition Documents”) shall survive the Effective Time for a period of twelve (12) months. The representations and warranties of Parent contained in the Acquisition Documents shall not survive beyond the Effective Time. Neither the period of survival nor the liability of a party hereto with respect to representations and warranties shall be affected by any investigation made at any time (whether before or after the Effective Time) by or on behalf of a party hereto or by any actual, implied or constructive knowledge or notice of any facts or circumstances that a party hereto may have as a result of any such investigation or otherwise. The waiver by Parent of any condition based on the accuracy of any such representation or warranty, or based on the performance of, or compliance with, any covenant or obligation, shall not affect the right to indemnification or other remedy based on such representations, warranties, covenants or obligations. If written notice of a claim has been given prior to the expiration of the applicable representations and warranties by Parent or Merger Sub to Ositis (as set forth in the Escrow Agreements), then the relevant representations and warranties shall survive as to such claim until such claim has been finally resolved.

SECTION 9.02 Indemnification by Ositis. (a) After the Effective Time, Parent and its affiliates (including, after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation), officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Parent Indemnified Parties”) shall be indemnified and held harmless by Ositis for any and all liabilities, losses, damages of any kind, claims, costs, expenses, fines, fees, deficiencies, interest, awards, judgments, amounts paid in settlement and penalties (including, without limitation, attorneys’, consultants’ and experts’ fees and expenses and other costs of defending, investigating or settling claims but excluding special, indirect consequential, exemplary and punitive damages) suffered, incurred, accrued (in accordance with U.S. GAAP) or paid by them (including, without limitation, in connection with any action brought or otherwise initiated by any of them) (collectively, “Losses”), arising out of or resulting from:

(i) any inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty (for purposes of determining Losses only, without giving effect to any qualification as to materiality (or similar qualifications) contained therein) made by the Company or any Company Stockholder in the Acquisition Documents;

(ii) the breach of any covenant or agreement made by the Company or any Company Stockholder in the Acquisition Documents; or

(iii) Losses pursuant to that certain engagement letter between Ositis and Broadview International LLC, dated September 27, 2001.

(b) As used herein, “Losses” are not limited to matters asserted by third parties, but include Losses incurred or sustained by the Parent Indemnified Parties in the absence of claims by third parties.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, except with respect to (A) claims for equitable remedies and (B) claims based on fraud or willful misconduct, the indemnification provided in this Article IX, which indemnification shall be satisfied exclusively by the Escrow Fund, shall be the sole and exclusive post-Closing remedy available to the Parent Indemnified Parties against Ositis for any Losses. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement but other than with respect to a payment to Parent out of the Escrow Fund pursuant to the provisions of Sections 2.08(e) and 9.02(a)(iii), Ositis shall have no liability for any Losses pursuant to this Article IX until the total of all Losses for which Parent Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 9.02 exceeds $25,000 in the aggregate, and then only for that amount by which such Losses exceed $25,000. For avoidance of doubt, the immediately preceding sentence shall not apply to any claim made by Parent in accordance with (i) Section 2.08(e) relating to a Company Net Working Capital Shortfall, a Company Transaction Expenses Excess or a Company Debt Excess and (ii) Section 9.02(a)(iii).

(d) By virtue of their approval of this Agreement and the Merger, the Company Stockholders acknowledge and agree that, if the Surviving Corporation suffers, incurs or otherwise becomes subject to any Losses as a result of or in connection with any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation made by the Company or any Company Stockholder in the Acquisition Documents, then (without limiting any of the rights of the Surviving Corporation as an Indemnitee) Parent shall also be deemed, by virtue of its ownership of the stock of the Surviving Corporation, to have incurred Losses as a result of and in connection with such inaccuracy or breach.

(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company’s representations and warranties contained in Article III of this Agreement shall, for purposes of the Company’s indemnification obligations, be deemed to be made as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Effective Time (except for any such representation or warranty that expressly speaks of an earlier date) without regard to the exceptions set forth in the certificates delivered in connection with Section 7.02(a).

SECTION 9.03 Indemnification Procedures.

(a) For purposes of this Section 9.03, a party against which indemnification may be sought is referred to as the “Indemnifying Party” and the party which may be entitled to indemnification is referred to as the “Indemnified Party”.

(b) The obligations and liabilities of Indemnifying Parties under this Article IX with respect to Losses arising from actual or threatened claims or demands by any third party which are subject to the indemnification provided for in this Article IX (“Third Party

Claims”) shall be governed by and contingent upon the following additional terms and conditions: if an Indemnified Party shall receive notice of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt notice of such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice shall not release an Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article IX except to the extent that such Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure. The notice of claim shall describe in reasonable detail the facts known to the Indemnified Party giving rise to such indemnification claim, and the amount or good faith estimate of the amount arising therefrom.

(c) If the Indemnifying Party acknowledges in writing its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party hereunder against any Losses that may result from such Third Party Claim, then the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume and control the defense of such Third Party Claim through counsel of its choice (such counsel to be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party) if it gives notice of its intention to do so to the Indemnified Party within 20 days of the receipt of such notice from the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense of the Third Party Claim if (i) any such claim seeks, in addition to or in lieu of monetary losses, any injunctive or other equitable relief, (ii) the Indemnifying Party fails to provide reasonable assurance to the Indemnified Party of the adequacy of the Escrow Fund to provide indemnification in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreements with respect to such proceeding, (iii) there is reasonably likely to exist a conflict of interest that would make it inappropriate (in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnified Party after consultation with counsel) for the same counsel to represent both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, or (iv) settlement of, or an adverse judgment with respect to, the Third Party Claim may establish (in the good faith judgment of the Indemnified Party) a precedential custom or practice adverse to the business interests of the Indemnified Party or would increase the Tax liability of the Indemnified Party; provided further, that if by reason of the Third Party Claim a Lien, attachment, garnishment, execution or other encumbrance is placed upon any of the property or assets of such Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party, if it desires to exercise its right to assume such defense of the Third Party Claim, must agree to use a portion of the Escrow Fund to furnish a satisfactory indemnity bond to obtain the prompt release of such Lien, attachment, garnishment, execution or other encumbrance. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, it will conduct the defense actively, diligently and at its own expense. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in the Indemnified Party’s possession or under the Indemnified Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party. Except with the written consent of the Indemnified Party (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), the Indemnifying Party will not, in the defense of a Third Party Claim, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement (i) which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving to the Indemnified Party by the third party of a release from all liability with respect to such suit, claim, action, or proceeding; (ii) unless there is no finding or admission of (A) any violation of Law by the Indemnified Party (or any affiliate thereof), (B) any liability on the part of the Indemnified Party (or any affiliate thereof) or (C) any violation of the rights of any person and no effect on any other claims of a similar nature that may be made by the same third party against the Indemnified Party (or any affiliate thereof); or (iii) which exceeds the then current value of the Escrow Fund.

(d) In the event that the Indemnifying Party fails, elects not to or is not entitled to assume the defense of the Indemnified Party against such Third Party Claim pursuant to Section 9.03(c), the Indemnified Party shall have the right, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, to defend or prosecute such claim in any manner as it may reasonably deem appropriate, and the Indemnified Party shall keep the Indemnifying Party reasonably apprised of the status of such Third Party Claim. In such case, the Indemnified Party shall conduct the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently and the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate with the Indemnified Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnified Party, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, all such witnesses, records, materials and information in the Indemnifying Party’s possession or under the Indemnifying Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably requested by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party may consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim in accordance with the following: If the total amount of Losses that may result from the Third Party Claim (as reasonably determined by the Indemnified Party after consultation with counsel), including any legal, accounting or other expenses expected to be incurred in connection with defending or prosecuting such claim (collectively, the “Claim Losses”), exceeds the then current value of the Escrow Fund, or if any such Third Party Claim seeks, in addition to or in lieu of monetary losses, any injunctive or other equitable relief, then, after giving written notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party may consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim on such terms as such Indemnified Party may reasonably deem appropriate (after consultation with counsel), and the Indemnified Party may seek prompt reimbursement from the Escrow Fund for any Losses incurred in connection with such judgment or settlement. If (but only for so long as) the then current value of the Escrow Fund exceeds the expected Claim Losses relating to such Third Party Claim (and provided that such Third Party Claim does not seek any injunctive or other equitable relief), then the Indemnified Party may consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim only with the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no settlement of such Third Party Claim is made, the Indemnified Party may seek prompt reimbursement from the Escrow Fund in accordance with the Escrow Agreements for any Losses arising out of any judgment rendered with respect to such claim. Any Losses for which an Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder shall be promptly paid as suffered, incurred or accrued (in accordance with U.S. GAAP) in accordance with the Escrow Agreements.
