----------- ---------------
Section 1.1 hereof, the Assets to be transferred to Purchaser pursuant to this
Agreement shall not include (i) all accounts receivable of Seller (including,
without limitation, amounts due or to become due to Seller for work that has

ARTICLE III
-----------
PURCHASE PRICE
--------------
Section 3.1 Consideration . Upon the terms and subject to the
------------ --------------
conditions contained in this Agreement, in consideration for the Assets and in
full payment therefore, Purchaser will pay, or cause to be paid, the purchase
price set forth in Section 3.2.
Section 3.2 Amount. The purchase price ("Purchase Price") for the
----------- ------
Assets shall consist of:
(a) Cash. Six Million Five Hundred Dollars ($6,500,000) which shall
----
be payable by wire transfer at the Time of Closing and One Million Five Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000) held in an escrow account for a period of two (2)
years, with Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) of such cash consideration
placed in escrow to be released after one (1) year, assuming that there are no
pending claims at such time for Damages and the other One Million Dollars
($1,000,000) to be released on the second anniversary of the Closing, except for
the amount of any pending claims for Damages at such time in accordance with
Article VIII, pursuant to the terms of an escrow agreement, the form of which is
attached hereto as Exhibit 3.2 (the "Escrow Agreement"); and
(b) Purchase Shares. Shares of Common Stock of P-COM to be issued
---------------
directly from P-COM to each of the Partners or, in the case of and to the extent
directed in writing by Columbia Spectrum Management Investors, L.P. ("CSMI"), to
the
3.
partners thereof, as assignees of Seller and in furtherance of its complete
liquidation, in accordance with Schedule 3.2(b) (the "Purchase Shares").
The aggregate number of Purchase Shares to be issued to the Partners
shall be determined by dividing the amount of Fourteen Million Five Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($14,500,000) by the average closing sales price of the P-COM
Common Stock as quoted on the National Association of Securities Dealers
Automated Quotation System National Market ("Nasdaq National Market") for the
thirty (30) consecutive trading days ending two (2) trading days prior to the
Time of Closing (the "Closing Date Average Price"); provided, however, that in
the event that the closing sales price of the P-COM Common Stock as quoted on
the Nasdaq National Market on the earlier of (i) July 31, 1997, and (ii) the
date upon which a registration statement covering all of the Purchase Shares
requesting registration pursuant to that certain Registration Rights Agreement
in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 5.8, is declared effective by the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Effective Price") either exceeds or is
less than the Closing Date Average Price, the number of Purchase Shares issuable
to the Partners pursuant to this Agreement shall be correspondingly adjusted
(the "Purchase Share Adjustment") such that the aggregate number of Purchase
Shares issuable to the Partners shall equal the number achieved by dividing
$14,500,000 by the Effective Price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) if the
Effective Price exceeds the Closing Date Average Price by fifteen percent (15%)
or more, then the Purchase Share Adjustment shall be based on a price equal to
the Closing Date Average Price multiplied by 1.15 and (b) if the Effective Price
is more than fifteen percent (15%) less than the Closing Date Average Price,
then the Purchase Share Adjustment shall be based on a price equal to the
Closing Date Average Price multiplied by .85. In the event of a Purchase Price
Adjustment pursuant to this Section 3.2(b), the escrow agent appointed under the
Escrow Agreement shall be entitled to deduct the appropriate number of either
Partner Escrow Shares (as defined below) or P-COM Escrow Shares (as defined
below), as applicable, from the escrow account and deliver such shares instead
to the appropriate party.
The Purchase Shares shall be paid as follows:
(i) Eighty-five Percent (85%) of the total number of Purchase Shares
calculated in accordance with this Section 3.2(b) based on the Closing Date
Average Price shall be issued at the Time of Closing and delivered to the
Partners; and
(ii) Fifteen Percent (15%) of the total number of Purchase Shares
calculated in accordance with this Section 3.2(b) based on the Closing Date
Average Price shall be issued at the Time of Closing and held (until an
Effective Price is determined pursuant to Section 3.2(b)) in an escrow account
pursuant to the Escrow Agreement as collateral for a potential Purchase Price
Adjustment, as defined in Section 3.2(b) (the "Partner Escrow Shares"). In
addition, P-COM shall place an equivalent number of shares of its Common Stock
into such an escrow account to serve as collateral for a potential Purchase
Price Adjustment (the "P-COM Escrow Shares").
4.
Section 3.3 Net Asset Determination.
----------- -----------------------
(a) Adjustment Amount. To the extent that as of the Time of Closing,
-----------------
the value of the Assets does not equal or exceed $400,000, an adjustment shall
be made to the purchase price as follows: if the Assets as of the Time of
Closing are less than $400,000, a credit shall be allowed by Seller to Purchaser
in the amount by which the Assets fall short of $400,000, and such credit shall
be considered a reduction of the purchase price and shall be paid as hereinafter
set forth.
(b) Procedures. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Time of
----------
Closing, but in no event later than five (5) business days thereafter, Seller
shall deliver to Purchaser an unaudited balance sheet of Seller dated as of the
Time of Closing, which shall fairly present the Assets of Seller as of the Time
of Closing in accordance with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with previous
periods (the "Closing Date Balance Sheet"). As soon as possible after the
Closing Date, and in any event, within fifteen (15) days of the Closing Date,
representatives of Purchaser and Seller shall jointly determine the Assets as of
the Closing Date. Upon certification of such amounts jointly by such
representatives, the parties shall within five (5) business days make such
further payments between themselves as set forth in Section 3.3(a).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Seller and the Partners do not
make such payment in cash or stock within five (5) days, Purchaser shall be
entitled to deduct on a pro rata basis from the cash consideration held pursuant
to the Escrow Agreement that amount due and owing pursuant to this Section 3.3.
(c) Disputes. In the event that the representatives of Purchaser and
--------
Seller are unable to agree with respect to any determination of Assets within
fifteen (15) days of the Time of Closing, Purchaser and Seller hereby agree that
such determination shall be referred to Price Waterhouse, or another nationally
recognized accounting firm agreed upon by the parties (the "Auditor"), which
shall promptly make a determination. If necessary, the decision of the Auditor
shall be binding on the parties. In the event that the Auditor is required to
make any such determination, Seller and Purchaser shall each pay fifty percent
(50%) of the fees of the Auditor.

hereby, jointly and severally, represents and warrants to P-COM and Purchaser as
of the date hereof and again at and as of the Closing Date that:
5.
(a) Organization of Seller. Seller is a limited partnership duly
----------------------
organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has

the places where the Business is now conducted and to directly own, lease, and
operate the Assets. Seller is duly qualified or licensed to do business as a
limited partnership and is in good standing in the Commonwealth of Virginia, and
is not required to be qualified in any other jurisdiction in which the nature of
its business or location of its properties requires such qualification or
licensing and where the failure to be so qualified would adversely affect the
Business.
(b) Equity Structure. Schedule 4.1(b) contains a complete and
----------------
accurate list of the equity interests owned of record by the holders of
outstanding Seller Equity Interests and their state or country of residence or,
in the case of entities other than individuals, their principal place of
business. As of the date of this Agreement, there are no equity interests
reserved for issuance upon the exercise of options or rights to purchase equity
interests of Seller.
(c) Authorization of Seller. Seller and each Partner that is not a
-----------------------
natural person has full organizational power and authority to enter into this
Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, to perform its obligations hereunder and
thereunder, and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby,
including, without limitation, the execution and delivery of this Agreement and
the Escrow Agreement, general conveyances, bills of sale, assignments, and other
documents and instruments evidencing the conveyance of the Assets or delivered
in accordance with Section 6.2 hereunder (the "Seller Closing Documents"). Each
of the Seller and the Partners has taken all necessary and appropriate action
with respect to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Escrow
Agreement and the other Closing Documents. This Agreement, the Escrow Agreement
and the other Closing Documents constitute valid and binding obligations of
Seller and, to the extent that they are parties thereto, the Partners,
enforceable against them in accordance with their respective terms except as

sheet as of December 31, 1996, and its unaudited statement of operations, cash
flow and equity for its fiscal year ended December 31, 1996 which has been
diligently prepared by management and reviewed by Seller's accountants (which,
collectively with the Closing Date Balance Sheet referred to in Section 3.3
hereof, shall be referred to herein for all purposes as, the "Financial
Statements"). The Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") consistently applied and
fairly present the consolidated financial position of Seller as and at the dates
thereof and
6.
Seller's consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the periods then
ended. The notes to the audited Financial Statements, if applicable, as at and
for each such period set forth in reasonable detail Seller's accounting
policies, principles and methods with respect to the calculation of its accounts
receivable (including policies for its warranty and bad debt reserves, revenue
recognition and capitalized software development costs). The projections of

which reasonably could be expected to have such an effect on the Business or the
Assets;
(iii) Any material transaction relating to the Business (other

(a "Supplier") that any such Supplier will not continue to supply the current
level and type of goods currently being provided by such Supplier to Seller on

the Seller and the Partners in reliance upon Seller's and each Partner's
representation that the Purchase Shares to be received by Seller and each
Partner will be acquired for investment for Seller's or Partner's own account,

any employment agreement (whether written or verbal), patent or trademark
disclosure agreement, or any other contract or agreement relating to the
relationship of any such service provider with Seller or any other party
(including prior employers), or any term of any judgment, decree or order,
because of the nature of the business now conducted or now proposed to be
conducted by Seller. Each current and former service provider of Seller has
executed a proprietary information and inventions agreement (or similar
agreement) with Seller in the form then being used by Seller, which forms have
been previously delivered to Purchaser by Seller. Neither Seller nor any Partner
is aware that any of Seller's service providers is in violation thereof and each
will use all efforts to prevent any such violation. Neither Seller nor any
Partner is aware that any of Seller's service providers is obligated under any
contract (including licenses, covenants or commitments of any nature) or other
agreement, or subject to any judgment, decree or order of any court or
administrative agency, that would interfere with the use of his or her best
efforts to promote the interests of Seller or that would conflict with Seller's

(iii) Any illegal contributions made to any political party,
political candidate or holder of governmental office; or

account; or
(vi) Any payments or reimbursements made to personnel of the
Company for the purposes of enabling them to expend time or to make
contributions or payments of the kind or for the purpose referred to in
subparagraphs (i)-(vi) above. In addition, Seller and the Partners have no

than 1% shareholder of a publicly-held company (other than P-COM)), partner,
joint venturer, employee, consultant, advisor, and/or agent, of any person,
firm, corporation, or other entity, in any or all of the following activities in
any geographic area or territory in which Purchaser, any of its affiliates
(which for purposes of this Section 5.2 shall include any company or business
which Purchaser or its affiliates has or will acquire) or Seller does business,
has ever done business or sought to do business:
(a) Enter into or engage in the business of providing hardware or

5.2.3 CSM Investors L.P. further covenants and agrees that each of
-----
its partners shall agree in writing to be individually bound by the terms of
this Section 5.2.3 as if a signatory hereto; provided, however, that the
obligations of each such partner shall not apply to the holding of minority
equity investments in other entities without direct participation in the

include any company or business which Purchaser or its affiliates has or will
acquire) or Seller does business, has ever done business or sought to do
business. If, in any judicial proceeding, a court shall refuse to enforce in
such action any of the separate covenants deemed included herein, then at the

from the

provisions hereof for the purpose of such proceeding to the extent necessary to
permit the remaining separate covenants to be enforced in such a proceeding.
5.2.5 The parties agree that due to the unique nature of the

services and capabilities of Seller and the Partners, there can be no adequate
remedy at law for any breach of their obligations hereunder, that any such
breach may allow Seller or any of the Partners and/or third parties to unfairly
compete with Purchaser resulting in irreparable harm to Purchaser, and

entitled to appropriate equitable relief in addition to whatever remedies it
might have at law. Further, Purchaser shall be entitled to indemnification by
Seller and the Partners, individually and not jointly, from any loss or harm,
including, without limitation, attorney's fees, in connection with any breach,
or any enforcement, of each of their obligations hereunder.
5.2.6 Seller and the Partners represent and warrant to Purchaser

the Seller and its officers, directors and other affiliates against any and all

nonfulfillment of any of the representations, warranties, covenants, or
agreements made by P-COM or Purchaser in this Agreement or any facts or
circumstances constituting such an inaccuracy, breach, or nonfulfillment, or (2)

Indemnifiable Claims" and together with Seller and Partner Indemnifiable Claims,
the "Indemnifiable Claims"). The indemnification obligations of, and Seller's
and each of the Partner's recourse against, P-COM or Purchaser or any of their
affiliates shall terminate two (2) years after the Closing. In addition, the
indemnification obligations of P-COM and Purchaser hereunder shall in no event
exceed the indemnification obligations of Seller and the Partners arising from

shall be reduced pursuant to the formula provided to the Seller and the Partners
with respect thereto.
Section 8.3 Procedure for Indemnification with Respect to Third-Party
----------- ---------------------------------------------------------
Claims.
------
(a) If a party determines to seek indemnification (such party shall be
referred to herein as an "Indemnified Party") under this Article VIII with
respect to any Indemnifiable Claims resulting from the assertion of liability by
third parties, such Indemnified Party shall give notice to the parties from
which indemnification is sought (such parties shall be referred to herein as
"Indemnifying Parties") within 60 days of such Indemnified Party becoming aware
of any such Indemnifiable Claim or of facts upon
32.
which any such Indemnifiable Claim will be based; the notice shall set forth
such material information with respect thereto as is then reasonably available
to such Indemnified Party. In case any such liability is asserted against any
Indemnified Party, and such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Parties
thereof, the Indemnifying Parties will be entitled, if such Indemnifying Parties
so elect by written notice delivered to such Indemnified Party within 20 days
after receiving such Indemnified Party's notice, to assume the defense thereof
with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party, which counsel shall be
reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, (i) such Indemnified Party shall also have the right to employ its
own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be
at the expense of such Indemnified Party unless such party shall reasonably
determine that there is a conflict of interest between or among such Indemnified
Party and any Indemnifying Party with respect to such Indemnifiable Claim, in
which case the fees and expenses of such counsel will be borne by such
Indemnifying Parties, and (ii) none of the Indemnified Parties shall have any
obligation to give any notice of any assertion of liability by a third party
unless such assertion is in writing, and (iii) the rights of the Indemnified
Parties to be indemnified hereunder in respect of Indemnifiable Claims resulting
from the assertion of liability by third parties shall not be adversely affected
by their failure to give notice pursuant to the foregoing unless, and, if so,
only to the extent that, such Indemnifying Parties are materially prejudiced
thereby. With respect to any assertion of liability by a third party that
results in an Indemnifiable Claim, the parties hereto shall make available to
each other all relevant information in their possession material to any such
assertion.
(b) In the event that such Indemnifying Parties, within 20 days after
receipt of the aforesaid notice of an Indemnifiable Claim, fail to assume the
defense of such Indemnified Party against such Indemnifiable Claim, such
Indemnified Party shall have the right to undertake the defense, compromise, or
settlement of such action on behalf of and for the account, expense, and risk of
such Indemnifying Parties.
(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Article VIII to the contrary, if
there is a reasonable probability that an Indemnifiable Claim may materially
adversely affect such Indemnified Party, such Indemnified Party shall have the
right to participate in such defense, compromise, or settlement and such
Indemnifying Parties shall not, without such Indemnified Party's written consent
(which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), settle or compromise any
Indemnifiable Claim or consent to entry of any judgment in respect thereof
unless such settlement, compromise, or consent includes as an unconditional term
thereof the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to such Indemnified Party a
release from all liability in respect of such Indemnifiable Claim.
Section 8.4 Procedure For Indemnification with Respect to Non-Third
----------- -------------------------------------------------------
Party Claims. In the event that any Indemnified Party asserts the existence of
------------
an Indemnifiable Claim (but excluding claims resulting from the assertion of
liability by third parties), it shall give written notice to the Indemnifying
Parties. Such written notice
33.
shall state that it is being given pursuant to this Section 8.4, specify the
nature and amount of the claim asserted and indicate the date on which such
assertion shall be deemed accepted and the amount of the claim deemed a valid
claim (such date to be established in accordance with the next sentence). If
such Indemnifying Parties, within 60 days after the mailing of notice by such
Indemnified Party, shall not give written notice to such Indemnified Party
announcing its intent to contest such assertion of such Indemnified Party, such
assertion shall be deemed accepted and the amount of claim shall be deemed a
valid claim. In the event, however, that such Indemnifying Parties contest the
assertion of a claim by giving such written notice to such Indemnified Party
within said period, then the parties shall act in good faith to reach agreement
regarding such claim. If the parties hereto, acting in good faith, cannot reach
agreement with respect to such claim within ten (10) days after notice thereof,
such claim will be submitted to and settled by arbitration pursuant to Section
10.11 hereof.
Section 8.5 Limitation on Indemnification. Notwithstanding any
