(c) call on any Person that at that time is, or at any time within
one year prior to that time was, a customer of the Company, any Company
Subsidiary or Apple within the Territory, (i) for the purpose of
soliciting or selling any product or service in competition with the
Company, any Company Subsidiary or Apple within the Territory and (ii)
with the knowledge of that customer relationship; or
(d) call on any Apple Acquisition Candidate, with the knowledge of
that Person's status as an Apple Acquisition Candidate, for the purpose of
acquiring that Person or arranging the acquisition of that Person by any
Person other than Apple.
11
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Stockholder may own and hold as a passive
investment up to 1% of the outstanding Capital Stock of a competing Entity if
that class of Capital Stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange or included
in the Nasdaq National Market. For purposes hereof and the respective Tax
reporting positions of the parties hereto, each party hereto agrees that the
percentage of the cash portion of the Merger Consideration to be received by
each Stockholder pursuant to Section 2.04 which equals 1% of that Stockholder's
Pro Rata Share of the Transaction Value will represent, and be received as,
consideration for that Stockholder's agreement to observe the covenants in this
Section 10.01.
Section 10.02 DAMAGES. Because of the difficulty of measuring
economic losses to Apple as a result of any breach by a Stockholder of his
covenants in Section 10.01, and because of the immediate and irreparable damage
that could be caused to Apple for which it would have no other adequate remedy,
each Stockholder agrees that Apple may enforce the provisions of Section 10.01
by injunctions and restraining orders against that Stockholder if he breaches
any of those provisions.
Section 10.03 REASONABLE RESTRAINT. The parties hereto each agree
that Sections 10.01 and 10.02 impose a reasonable restraint on the Stockholders
in light of the activities and business of Apple on the date hereof, the current
business plans of Apple and the investment by each Stockholder in Apple as a
result of the Merger.
Section 10.04 SEVERABILITY; REFORMATION. The covenants in this
Article X are severable and separate, and the unenforceability of any specific
covenant in this Article X is not intended by any party hereto to, and shall
not, affect the provisions of any other covenant in this Article X. If any court
of competent jurisdiction shall determine that the scope, time or territorial
restrictions set forth in Section 10.01 are unreasonable as applied to any
Stockholder, the parties hereto, including that Stockholder, acknowledge their
mutual intention and agreement that those restrictions be enforced to the
fullest extent the court deems reasonable, and thereby shall be reformed to that
extent as applied to that Stockholder and any other Stockholder similarly
situated.
Section 10.05 INDEPENDENT COVENANT. All the covenants in this
Article X are intended by each party hereto to, and shall, be construed as an
agreement independent of any other provision in this Agreement, and the
existence of any claim or cause of action of any Stockholder against Apple,
whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a
defense to the enforcement by Apple of any covenant in this Article X. It is
specifically agreed that the period specified in Section 10.01 shall be computed
in the case of each Stockholder by excluding from that computation any time
during which that Stockholder is in violation of any provision of Section 10.01.
The covenants contained in this Article X shall not be affected by any breach of
any other provision hereof by any party hereto.
Section 10.06 MATERIALITY. The Company and each Stockholder,
severally and not jointly with any other Person, hereby agree that this Article
X is a material and substantial part of the transactions contemplated hereby.
ARTICLE XI.

GENERAL PROVISIONS
Section 11.01 TREATMENT OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. Each party
hereto will comply with each covenant for which provision is made in Section
11.15 of the Uniform Provisions (the text of which Section hereby is
incorporated herein by this reference) to be performed or observed by that
party.
Section 11.02 RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER OF APPLE COMMON STOCK. (a)
During the two-year period ending on the second anniversary of the IPO Closing
Date (the "Restricted Period") (or if the two-year "holding" period for
restricted securities under Rule 144 under the Securities Act is reduced by the
SEC, the Restricted Period will be correspondingly reduced), no Stockholder
voluntarily will, except pursuant to and in accordance with the applicable
provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement: (i) sell, assign, exchange,
transfer, encumber, pledge, distribute, appoint or otherwise dispose of (A) any
shares of Apple Common Stock received by any Stockholder in the Merger or (B)
any interest in (including any option to buy or sell) any of those shares of
Apple Common Stock, in whole or in part, and Apple will have no obligation to,
and shall not, treat any such attempted transfer as effective for any purpose;
or (ii) engage in any transaction, whether or not with respect to any shares of
Apple Common Stock or any interest therein, the intent or effect of which is to
reduce the risk of owning the shares of Apple Common Stock acquired pursuant to
Section 2.04 (including, for example engaging in put, call, short-sale, straddle
or similar market transactions); provided, however, that this Section 11.02
shall not restrict any transfer of Apple Common Stock acquired by a Stockholder
pursuant to Section 2.04 to any of that Stockholder's Related Persons who agree
in writing to be bound by the provisions of Section 11.01 and this Section
11.02. The certificates evidencing the Apple Common Stock delivered to each
Stockholder pursuant to Section 2.05 will bear a legend substantially in the
form set forth below and containing such other information as Apple may deem
necessary or appropriate:
EXCEPT PURSUANT TO THE TERMS OF THE AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION
AMONG THE ISSUER, THE HOLDER OF THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE OTHER PARTIES
THERETO, THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT BE VOLUNTARILY
SOLD, ASSIGNED, EXCHANGED, TRANSFERRED, ENCUMBERED, PLEDGED, DISTRIBUTED,
APPOINTED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF, AND THE ISSUER SHALL NOT BE REQUIRED
TO GIVE EFFECT TO ANY ATTEMPTED VOLUNTARY SALE, ASSIGNMENT, EXCHANGE,
TRANSFER, ENCUMBRANCE, PLEDGE, DISTRIBUTION, APPOINTMENT OR OTHER
DISPOSITION OF ANY OF THOSE SHARES, DURING THE TWO-YEAR PERIOD ENDING ON
__________ [DATE THAT IS THE SECOND ANNIVERSARY OF THE IPO CLOSING DATE]
(THE "RESTRICTED PERIOD") (OR IF THE TWO YEAR "HOLDING" PERIOD FOR
RESTRICTED SECURITIES UNDER RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 IS
REDUCED BY THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, THE RESTRICTED PERIOD
WILL BE CORRESPONDINGLY REDUCED). ON THE WRITTEN REQUEST OF THE HOLDER OF
THIS CERTIFICATE, THE ISSUER AGREES TO REMOVE
13
THIS RESTRICTIVE LEGEND (AND ANY STOP ORDER PLACED WITH THE TRANSFER
AGENT) AFTER THE DATE SPECIFIED ABOVE.
(b) Each Stockholder, severally and not jointly with any other
Person, (i) acknowledges that the shares of Apple Common Stock to be delivered
to that Stockholder pursuant to Section 2.04 have not been and, except pursuant
to the Registration Rights Agreement, if applicable, will not be registered
under the Securities Act and therefore may not be resold by that Stockholder
without compliance with the Securities Act and (ii) covenants that none of the
shares of Apple Common Stock issued to that Stockholder pursuant to Section 2.04
will be offered, sold, assigned, pledged, hypothecated, transferred or otherwise
disposed of except after full compliance with all the applicable provisions of
the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC and applicable state
securities laws and regulations. All certificates evidencing shares of Apple
Common Stock issued pursuant to Section 2.04 will bear the following legend in
addition to the legend prescribed by Section 11.02(a):
THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 AND MAY ONLY BE SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IF
THE HOLDER HEREOF COMPLIES WITH THAT LAW AND OTHER APPLICABLE SECURITIES
LAWS.
In addition, certificates evidencing shares of Apple Common Stock issued
pursuant to Section 2.04 to each Stockholder will bear any legend required by
the securities or blue sky laws of the state in which that Stockholder resides.
Section 11.03 BROKERS AND AGENTS. Except as disclosed in the Private
Placement Memorandum or in Section 11.03 of the Disclosure Statement, the
Stockholders jointly and severally represent and warrant to Apple that the
Company has not directly or indirectly employed or become obligated to pay any
broker or similar agent in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby,
and agree, without regard to the Threshold Amount limitations set forth in
Article IX, to indemnify Apple against all Damage Claims arising out of claims
for any and all fees and commissions of brokers or similar agents employed or
promised payment by the Company.
Section 11.04 ASSIGNMENT; NO THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES. This
Agreement and the rights of the parties hereunder may not be assigned (except by
operation of law) and shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto, the successors of Apple, and the heirs and legal representatives
of the Stockholders (and, in the case of any trust, the successor trustees of
that trust). Neither this Agreement nor any other Transaction Document is
intended, or shall be construed, deemed or interpreted, to confer on any Person
not a party hereto or thereto any rights or remedies hereunder or thereunder,
except as provided in Section 6.05(b) or 11.14, in Article IX or as otherwise
provided expressly herein or therein.
Section 11.05 ENTIRE AGREEMENT; AMENDMENT; WAIVERS. This Agreement
and the documents delivered pursuant hereto constitute the entire agreement and
understanding among the Stockholders, the Company and Apple and supersede all
prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, relating to the
subject matter of this Agreement. This
14
Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented, and any right hereunder may
be waived, if, but only if, that amendment, modification, supplement or waiver
is in writing and signed by the Required Stockholders, the Company and Apple;
provided, however, that no such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver
will be effective unless it is signed by each Stockholder affected thereby to
the extent that it (a) changes the several nature of that Stockholder's
representations and warranties (to the extent they are not already joint and
several as provided in Sections 4.01 and 11.03), (b) reduces the amount, or
changes the components, of the Merger Consideration that Stockholder is entitled
to receive pursuant to Section 2.04, as adjusted pursuant to Section 2.05(f),
(c) waives the consummation of the IPO as a condition to consummation of the
Merger or (d) amends or waives this sentence. The waiver of any of the terms and
conditions hereof shall not be construed or interpreted as, or deemed to be, a
waiver of any other term or condition hereof.
Section 11.06 COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in
multiple counterparts, each of which will be an original, but all of which
together will constitute one and the same instrument.
Section 11.07 EXPENSES. Whether or not the transactions contemplated
hereby are consummated, (a) Apple will pay the fees, expenses and disbursements
of Apple and their Representatives which are incurred in connection with the
subject matter of this Agreement and any amendments thereto, including all costs
and expenses incurred in the performance of and compliance with all conditions
to be performed by Apple under this Agreement, including the costs of preparing
the Registration Statement, and (b) the Stockholders will pay from personal
funds, and not from funds of the Company or any Company Subsidiary, all sales,
use, transfer and other similar taxes and fees (collectively, "Transfer Taxes")
incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and the fees,
expenses and disbursements of Counsel for the Company and the Stockholders
incurred in connection with the subject matter of this Agreement and the
Registration Statement on or before the IPO Closing Date; provided, however, if
the Company or the Required Stockholders terminate this Agreement otherwise than
as permitted by Article XII, the Company will, no later than ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇
business days after Apple makes a written request therefor, reimburse Apple in
the amount equal to the aggregate fees, costs and other expenses invoiced to
Apple by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP in connection with its audit of the Company's
financial statements at December 31, 1996 and for the 12-month period then
ended; provided further, however, that a Stockholder's estate shall not be
required to reimburse Apple for such fees, costs and expenses in the event such
termination follows the death of the Stockholder. The Stockholders will file all
necessary documentation and Returns with respect to all Transfer Taxes. In
addition, each Stockholder acknowledges that he, and not the Company or Apple or
the Surviving Corporation, will pay all Taxes due upon receipt of the
consideration payable to that Stockholder pursuant to Article II.
Section 11.08 NOTICES. All notices required or permitted hereunder
shall be in writing, and shall be deemed to be delivered and received (a) if

this Agreement in all respects.
Section 11.12 REFORMATION AND SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this
Agreement is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that provision shall, to the
extent possible, be modified in such manner as to be valid, legal and
enforceable but so as to most nearly retain the intent of the parties hereto as

shall be severed from this Agreement, and in either case the validity, legality
and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not in
any way be affected or impaired thereby.
Section 11.13 REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. No right, remedy or election
given by any term of this Agreement shall be deemed exclusive, but each shall be

Stockholders acknowledges and agrees that: (a) no firm commitment, binding
agreement or promise or other assurance of any kind, whether express or implied,
oral or written, exists at the date hereof that the Registration Statement will

particular range of prices or occur at all; (b) neither Apple or any of its
Representatives nor any prospective underwriters in the IPO will have any
liability to the Company, the Stockholders or any of their respective Affiliates
or associates for any failure of (i) the Registration Statement to become
effective (provided, however, that Apple will use its reasonable best efforts to
cause the Registration Statement to become effective prior to December 31, 1997)
or (ii) the IPO to occur at a particular price or within a particular range of
prices or to occur at all; and (c) the decision of Stockholders to enter into
this Agreement, or to vote in favor of or consent to the Merger, has been or
will be made independent of, and without reliance on, any statements, opinions
or other communications of, or due diligence investigations that have been or
will be made or performed by, any prospective underwriter relative to Apple or
the IPO. The Underwriter shall have no obligation to any of the Company and the
Stockholders or with respect to any disclosure contained in the Registration
Statement.
ARTICLE XII.
TERMINATION
Section 12.01 TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT. (a) This Agreement may
be terminated at any time prior to the Closing solely:
(i) by the mutual written consent of Apple and the Company;
(ii) by the Stockholders or the Company, on the one hand, or by
Apple, on the other hand, if the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement to take place at the Closing shall not have been consummated by
December 31, 1997, unless the failure of such transactions to be
consummated results from the willful failure of the party (or in the case
of the Stockholders and the Company, any of them) seeking to
17
terminate this Agreement to perform or adhere to any agreement required
hereby to be performed or adhered to by it prior to or at the Closing or
thereafter on the IPO Closing Date;
(iii) by the Stockholders or the Company, on the one hand, or by
Apple, on the other hand, if a material breach or default shall be made by
the other party (or in the case of the Stockholders and the Company, any
of them) in the observance or in the due and timely performance of any of
the covenants, agreements or conditions contained herein; or
(iv) by Apple if it is entitled to do so as provided in Section
6.08;
(b) This Agreement may be terminated after the Closing solely:
(i) by Apple or the Company if the Underwriting Agreement is
terminated pursuant to its terms after the Closing and prior to the
consummation of the IPO; or
(ii) automatically and without action on the part of any party
hereto if the IPO is not consummated within 15 New York City business days
after the date of the Closing.
(c) If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 12.01,
the Merger will be deemed for all purposes to have been abandoned and of no
force or effect. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section 12.01
after the Certificate of Merger has been filed with the Secretary of State of
the State of Arizona, but before the IPO has been consummated, Apple will take
all actions that Counsel for the Company and the Stockholders advises Apple are
required by the applicable laws of the State of Arizona in order to rescind the
Merger.
Section 12.02 LIABILITIES IN EVENT OF TERMINATION. If this Agreement
is terminated pursuant to Section 12.01, there shall be no liability or
obligation on the part of any party hereto except (a) as provided in Section
11.07 and (b) to the extent that such liability is based on the breach by that
party of any of its representations, warranties or covenants set forth in this
Agreement.
