RECAPITALIZATION AGREEMENT

THIS RECAPITALIZATION AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is made and entered into as of September 9, 2004 by and among ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇, Inc., a California corporation (the "Company"), the Persons listed on the Schedule of Purchasers attached hereto (each, a "Purchaser" and collectively, the "Purchasers") and ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, an individual, and ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, an individual (each, a "Founder" and collectively the "Founders"). The Company, the Purchasers and the Founders are sometimes collectively referred to herein as the "Parties" and individually as a "Party." Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to such terms in Section 6 below.

WHEREAS, the Company desires to reconstitute its capital structure through the sale of certain newly issued equity securities and the repurchase of certain of its outstanding equity securities, in each case on the terms set forth herein;

WHEREAS, the Purchasers, severally, desire to purchase certain newly issued equity securities of the Company on the terms set forth herein; and

WHEREAS, concurrently with the issuance of such equity securities, certain shareholders of the Company (each a "Seller" and collectively, the "Sellers"), each of whom will be listed on the Disbursement Schedule (as defined below), desire the Company to repurchase certain equity securities of the Company owned by the Sellers.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants, agreements and understandings herein contained and intending to be legally bound, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

Section 1. Recapitalization.

(a) Authorization.

(i) The Company shall authorize and the shareholders of the Company shall approve the amendment and restatement of the Company's current Articles of Incorporation (the "Articles of Incorporation") in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (as so amended and restated, the "Restated Articles"). The Restated Articles shall be duly executed by the Company on the Closing Date and shall be in full force and effect under the laws of the State of California as of the Closing.

(ii) The Company shall authorize the issuance and sale to the Purchasers of an aggregate of up to 2,131,285 shares of its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Securities") having the rights and preferences set forth in the Restated Articles.

(iii) The Company shall authorize the repurchase from the Sellers of a minimum of 1,136,686 shares of its Common Stock up to a maximum of 1,562,944 shares of its Common Stock (collectively, the "Repurchased Shares") at a price per share of $35.19 for an aggregate repurchase price of $39,999,980.34 for the repurchase of the minimum number of Repurchased Shares up to $54,999,999.36 for the repurchase of the maximum number of Repurchased Shares (the "Repurchase Price").

(b) Investment Transaction. On the basis of the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth herein, each of the Purchasers and the Company agrees to and shall consummate, at the Closing, the following transaction (the "Investment Transaction"): the Company shall issue and sell to each Purchaser, and each Purchaser shall purchase from the Company, that number of shares of Preferred Securities as is determined pursuant to this Section 1(b), up to the maximum number set forth opposite such Purchaser's name on the Schedule of Purchasers attached hereto, upon payment of immediately available funds in a maximum amount as set forth opposite such Purchaser's name on the Schedule of Purchasers attached hereto, payable in the manner set forth in Section 1(d) below. The price per share of the Preferred Securities shall be $35.19, resulting in a maximum aggregate purchase

price for such Preferred Securities of up to $74,999,919.15 (the "Preferred Securities Purchase Price"). Each Purchaser shall purchase that number of shares of Preferred Securities as is equal to such Purchaser's pro rata portion (based upon the amount of the Preferred Securities Purchase Price set forth opposite such Purchaser's name on the Schedule of Purchasers relative to the aggregate maximum amount of the Preferred Securities Purchase Price) of the sum of (A) 568,341 plus (B) that number of Repurchased Shares that the Company has determined to accept for repurchase pursuant to the Repurchase Transaction, as reflected in a disbursement schedule in the form attached hereto as Schedule 1(b) executed at the Closing by the Company and the Purchasers (the "Disbursement Schedule"). In connection with the Investment Transaction the Company, the Purchasers, the Founders, certain key employees and other shareholders of the Company shall enter into an Investors' Rights Agreement in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto (the "Investors' Rights Agreement"), a Voting Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C-1 (the "Voting Agreement") and a Drag-Along Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C-2 (the "Drag-Along Agreement").

(c) Repurchase Transaction. Immediately subsequent to the Investment Transaction pursuant to the terms of one or more repurchase agreements or letters of transmittal in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (collectively, the "Repurchase Agreements"), the terms of the Paying Agent Escrow Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit E (the "Escrow Agreement") and the terms of the Indemnification Escrow Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit F (the "Indemnification Escrow Agreement"), the Company and each of the Sellers shall consummate, at the Closing, the following transaction: the Company shall repurchase from each Seller and each Seller shall sell to the Company the number of Repurchased Shares set forth opposite such Seller's name on the Disbursement Schedule (the "Repurchase Transaction"). The Company and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Repurchase Price otherwise payable to any Seller such amounts as the Company or the Escrow Agent determines it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), or any other provision of state, local or foreign Tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement and the Repurchase Agreements as having been paid to the Seller with respect to which such deduction or withholding was made.

(d) Funding. Upon execution of this Agreement, each of the Purchasers shall deliver to American Stock Transfer & Trust Company (or such other escrow agent acceptable to the Company and the Purchasers), as escrow agent (the "Escrow Agent") such Purchaser's portion of the Preferred Securities Purchase Price set forth opposite such Purchaser's name on the Schedule of Purchasers attached hereto by wire transfer of immediately available funds to be held by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement and released in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement upon the Closing pursuant to the Disbursement Schedule.

(e) Closing. The closing of each of the Investment Transaction and the Repurchase Transaction (the "Closing") shall take place at the offices of Sheppard, Mullin, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & Hampton LLP, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, at 10:00 a.m., local time, on the second business day after the date on which the last condition set forth in Section 5 hereof shall have been satisfied or waived, or upon such other date as the Purchasers purchasing at least two-thirds (²/3) of the Preferred Securities to be sold hereunder and the Company may agree (the "Closing Date"). The Investment Transaction and the Repurchase Transaction shall each constitute a separate transaction hereunder. At the Closing, the Parties shall consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in the following order:

(i) Pursuant to the Disbursement Schedule the Escrow Agent, on behalf of each Purchaser, shall deliver to the Company the amounts set forth opposite the Company's name on the Disbursement Schedule by wire transfer of immediately available funds and the Company shall issue and sell to each Purchaser the number of Preferred Securities set forth opposite such Purchaser's name on the Schedule of Purchasers attached hereto.

(ii) Pursuant to the Disbursement Schedule the Escrow Agent, shall deliver (A) to the Sellers in immediately available funds an amount equal to the Repurchase Price (less the Indemnification Escrow Amount and the Sellers' portion of the applicable fees and expenses related to the Repurchase Transaction as set forth in the Disbursement Schedule), and (B) on behalf of the Sellers, to the escrow agent pursuant to the Indemnification Escrow Agreement, an amount equal to the Indemnification Escrow Amount. Pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, at the Closing the Escrow Agent shall deliver to the Company and the Company shall repurchase from each Seller the number of Repurchased Shares set forth opposite such Seller's name on the Disbursement Schedule. The Escrow Agent shall pay to each of the Sellers by draft or check the portion of the Repurchase Price set forth opposite such Seller's name on the Disbursement Schedule (less such Sellers' pro rata portion of the Indemnification Escrow Amount and the applicable fees and expenses related to the Repurchase Transaction as set forth in the Disbursement Schedule).

(iii) Pursuant to the Disbursement Schedule the Escrow Agent shall deliver to the other parties set forth on the Disbursement Schedule the amounts set forth opposite such parties names by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

(iv) To the extent that the Company repurchases less than 1,562,944 Repurchased Shares for an aggregate repurchase price of $54,999,999.36 pursuant to the Repurchase Transaction, pursuant to the Disbursement Schedule the Escrow Agent shall refund to each Purchaser, such Purchaser's portion of the difference (determined in proportion to such Purchaser's portion of the Preferred Securities Purchase Price set forth opposite such Purchaser's name on the Schedule of Purchasers attached hereto) between $54,999,999.36 and the aggregate Repurchase Price actually paid for the Repurchased Shares.

Section 2. Representations and Warranties of the Company. The Company hereby represents and warrants to each Purchaser that the following statements are true and correct as of the date hereof, except as set forth on the Disclosure Schedule attached hereto as Schedule 2 (the "Disclosure Schedule"):

The Company is duly licensed or qualified as a foreign corporation to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such license or qualification is required, except where the failure to be so qualified would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's assets, properties, liabilities, financial condition, affairs, business, prospects or results of operations (a "Material Adverse Effect").

(b) Capitalization. The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 4,000,000 shares of common stock, no par value per share (the "Common Stock"), of which 2,174,988 shares are issued and outstanding prior to giving effect to the Repurchase Transaction and 800,000 shares of preferred stock, no par value per share (the "Preferred Stock"), of which no shares are issued and outstanding.

The supporting financial statements shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals consistently applied and shall fairly present the Company's results of operation for the applicable period, and the calculation of Distributable S Period Taxable Income shall be prepared in accordance with the income tax accounting principles consistently applied. The Purchasers may dispute any element of the calculation of Distributable S Period Taxable Income (or supporting financial statements and information on which such calculation is based or from which such calculation is delivered, directly or indirectly) by notifying the Company of such disagreement in writing, setting forth in reasonable detail the particulars of such disagreement, within 15 days after its receipt of the calculation. In the event that the Purchasers do not provide such a notice of disagreement within such 15-day period, the Purchasers shall be deemed to have accepted, for purposes of this Section 4(f), the calculation of Distributable S Period Taxable Income delivered by the Company, which shall be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes hereunder. In the event any such notice of disagreement is timely provided, the Company and the Purchasers shall use their commercially reasonable efforts for a period of ten (10) days (or such longer period as they may mutually agree) to resolve any disagreements with respect to the calculation of Distributable S Period Taxable Income (or supporting financial statements and information on which such calculation is based or from which such calculation is derived, directly or indirectly). If, at the end of such 10-day period, the Company and the Purchasers are unable to resolve such disagreements, then an independent nationally recognized accounting firm, other than the firm that reviewed and certified the calculation, reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Purchasers (the "Accounting Referee"), shall resolve any remaining disagreements. The Accounting Referee shall determine as promptly as practicable, but in any event within 15 days of the date on which such dispute is referred to the Accounting Referee, whether the calculation of Distributable S Period Taxable Income (or supporting financial statements and information on which such calculation is based or from which such calculation is derived, directly or indirectly), as the case may be, was properly prepared in accordance with the standards set forth in this Section 4(f)(iii) and shall deliver to the Company and the Purchasers a written report setting forth its findings, which shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Company and the Purchasers for purposes of this Section 4(f). The date on which the calculation of Distributable S Period Taxable Income (or supporting financial statements and information on which such calculation is based or from which such calculation is derived, directly or indirectly) is finally determined in accordance with this Section 4(f)(iii) shall be the "Determination Date." Each Party shall, and shall cause its representatives to, cooperate with the other and provide timely access to information for purposes of verifying the calculation of Distributable S Period Taxable Income resolving any dispute pursuant to this Section 4(f)(iii).

Such payment shall be made within 30 days after the date on which the Company delivers to the Founders written notice that such Tax liability has been so determined. The obligations to remit such cash to Company as described in this Section shall be treated as separate from and in addition to the Sellers' other indemnification obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, indemnification obligations under Section 7.

The Company shall not settle any such audit or proceeding on a basis that would subject the Founders to liability under this Section 4(h) without the prior written consent of the Founders, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. If the Company or the Founders pay any federal, state and/or local Tax liability (including any penalties, additions to Tax or interest assessed with respect thereto) of the Company in connection with Taxes that are imposed on the Company as a result of an invalid election or termination of S corporation status and it is subsequently determined that the Company is entitled to a refund of all or any portion of the such amount, the amount of the refund (including any interest with respect thereto) shall be paid to the Founders within thirty (30) days after the Company's receipt thereof.

(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7(a), (i) no Seller shall have any liability pursuant Section 7(a) unless the aggregate amount of all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements incurred, or deemed to have been incurred, by the Indemnitees exceeds $250,000, in which event the entire aggregate amount thereof (subject to clause (ii) of this Section 7(c)) shall be indemnified by the Sellers pursuant to Section 7(a), and (ii) the maximum aggregate liability of the Sellers under Section 7(a) shall not exceed, and shall be limited solely and exclusively to, the Indemnification Escrow Fund; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 7(c) shall limit the liability of the Founders pursuant to Section 4(h). No Seller shall have any right of contribution from the Company for any indemnification claim by the Indemnitees.

(d) Pursuant to the Repurchase Agreement, the Sellers shall agree and acknowledge that the Company shall deposit the Indemnification Escrow Amount with the escrow agent pursuant to the Indemnification Escrow Agreement. The Indemnification Escrow Fund shall be governed by the terms set forth in the Indemnification Escrow Agreement. Payment from the Indemnification Escrow Fund, of any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements indemnified by the Sellers pursuant to Section 7(a), shall be made pursuant to the terms of the Indemnification Escrow Agreement.

Section 8. Miscellaneous.

(a) Expenses; Attorneys' Fees. Each Party shall pay its own costs and expenses with respect to the negotiation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, provided, however, that at the Closing, the Company shall reimburse the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, LLP, special counsel for the Purchasers, and of any consultants retained by the Purchasers in connection with their purchase of Preferred Securities, in an amount not to exceed $50,000 in the aggregate. Each Purchaser acknowledges that payment of such fees by the Company raises a potential conflict of interest and hereby consents to the payment arrangement set forth herein. The fees and expenses of Seller's Counsel shall be paid by the Sellers from the aggregate Repurchase Price. The Company and the Sellers shall each pay 50% of the fees and expenses of the Escrow Agent and the escrow agent pursuant to the Indemnification Escrow Agreement.

(b) Remedies. Subject to the limitations of Section 7(c) of this Agreement, the Parties shall have all rights and remedies set forth in this Agreement and all rights and remedies which the Parties have been granted at any time under any other agreement or contract executed in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and, with respect to the additional rights the Parties may have against the Company in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, all of the rights which the Parties have under applicable law.

(c) Consent to Amendments. This Agreement may be amended, or any provision of this Agreement may be waived; provided that any such amendment or waiver shall be binding upon the Company only if set forth in a writing executed by the Company and referring specifically to the provision alleged to have been amended or waived, and any such amendment or waiver shall be binding upon the Purchasers only if set forth in a writing executed by the Purchasers holding two-thirds (²/3) in interest of the Preferred Securities and referring specifically to the provision alleged to have been amended or waived. No course of dealing between or among the Parties shall be deemed effective to modify, amend or discharge any part of this Agreement or any rights or obligations of any Party under or by reason of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 7(c), (i) any amendment which (I) increases any Purchaser's obligations hereunder, or (II) grants to any one or more Purchasers any rights more favorable than any rights granted to all other Purchasers hereunder, must be approved by each Purchaser so as to be effective against such Purchaser, and (ii) any amendment which increases any Seller's obligations hereunder must be approved by such Seller so as to be effective against such Seller.

(d) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement and all of the covenants and agreements contained herein and all of the rights, interests and obligations hereunder, by or on behalf of any of the Parties hereto, shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of the Parties hereto whether so expressed or not; provided, however, that the Company shall not have the right to delegate any of its respective obligations hereunder or to assign its respective rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Purchasers holding of two-thirds (²/3) in interest of the Preferred Securities.

(e) Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement or the application of any such provision to any Person or circumstance shall be held to be prohibited by, illegal or unenforceable under applicable law in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or illegality or unenforceability, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

(f) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in counterparts (including by means of facsimile signature pages), any one of which need not contain the signatures of more than one Party, but all such counterparts taken together shall constitute one and the same Agreement.

(g) Descriptive Headings; Interpretation. The headings and captions used in this Agreement and the table of contents to this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Any capitalized terms used in any Schedule or Exhibit attached hereto and not otherwise defined therein shall have the meanings set forth in this Agreement. The use of the word "including" herein shall mean "including without limitation." The Parties intend that each representation, warranty and covenant contained herein shall have independent significance. If any Party has breached any representation, warranty or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which the Party has not breached shall not detract from or mitigate the fact that the Party is in breach of the first representation, warranty or covenant.

(h) Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the agreements and documents referred to herein contain the entire agreement and understanding between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, whether written or oral, relating to such subject matter in any way.

(i) No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except for each Seller and his, her or its permitted successors and assigns, who are express third party beneficiaries of Section 7 of this Agreement, this Agreement is for the sole benefit of the Parties and their permitted successors and assigns and nothing herein expressed or implied shall give or be construed to give any Person, other than the Parties and such permitted successors and assigns, any legal or equitable rights hereunder.

(j) Cooperation on Tax Matters. The Company and the Founders shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by each such Party and at such requesting Party's expense, in connection with any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon any such Party's request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. The Company and the Founders agree (i) to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by any such Party, any extensions thereof) applicable to such taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any taxing authority, and (ii) to give each such Party reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if any such Party so requests, the Company or the Founders, as the case may be, shall allow such Party to take possession of such books and records.

(k) Governing Law. All issues and questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement and the Schedules and Exhibits hereto shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of California without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules or provisions (whether of the State of California or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of California. Each Party agrees to accept service of any summons, complaint or other initial pleading made in the manner provided for the giving of notices in Section 8(l), provided that nothing in this Section 8(k) shall affect the right of any Party to serve such summons, complaint or other initial pleading in any other manner permitted by law.

(l) Notices. All notices, demands or other communications to be given or delivered under or by reason of the provisions of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given when delivered personally to the recipient, one day after being sent to the recipient by reputable overnight courier service (charges prepaid), upon machine-generated acknowledgment of receipt after transmittal by facsimile or five days after being mailed to the recipient by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid. Such notices, demands and other communications shall be sent to the Purchasers and the Company at the addresses indicated below or to such other address

(m) No Strict Construction. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

(n) No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.. No failure or delay on the part of any party to this Agreement in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy hereunder. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

(o) Understanding Among the Purchasers. The determination of each Purchaser to enter into this Agreement has been made by such Purchaser independent of any other Purchaser and independent of any statements or opinions, which may have been made or given by any other Purchaser or by any agent or employee of any other Purchaser, as to the advisability thereof or as to the properties, prospects or conditions (financial or otherwise) of the Company.

(p) Termination.

(i) Prior to the Closing, this Agreement may be terminated and the transactions contemplated hereby may be abandoned:

(I) by the written agreement of the Company and Purchasers, Purchasers purchasing at least two-thirds (²/3) of the Preferred Securities to be sold hereunder, assuming issuance of the maximum number of Preferred Securities pursuant to the Investment Transaction; or

(II) by (A) the Company or (B) Purchasers purchasing at least two-thirds (²/3) of the Preferred Securities to be sold hereunder, assuming issuance of the maximum number of Preferred Securities pursuant to the Investment Transaction, if the Closing shall not have occurred by 5:00 PM (Pacific time) on October 15, 2004; provided that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8(p)(i)(II) shall not be available to any party or parties whose failure to fulfill any obligation, or satisfy any condition, under this Agreement has been the cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur on or before such date.

(ii) In the event of termination of this Agreement and the abandonment of the transactions contemplated hereby prior to Closing, this Agreement shall become void and of no effect with no liability on the part of any party hereto (or of any of its directors, officers, employees, agents, legal and financial advisors or other representatives); provided, however, except as otherwise provided herein, no such termination shall relieve any party hereto of any liability or damages resulting from any willful breach of this Agreement.
