This PURCHASE AGREEMENT dated as of May 20, 2011 (this “Agreement”) by and among Glowpoint, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), Avaya Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Avaya"), Avaya UK, a company formed under the laws of England & Wales (“Avaya UK”), and Avaya Canada Corp., a company formed under the laws of Nova Scotia (“Avaya Canada” and, collectively with Avaya and Avaya UK, the “Sellers”).

The parties hereto agree as follows:
 
ARTICLE I
PURCHASE AND SALE OF EQUIPMENT

Section 1.1 Purchase and Sale of Equipment.  (a) In consideration of up to an aggregate of $1,651,433.68 (the “Payment”), payable in that number of shares (the “Shares” or the “Securities”) of common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), as determined in accordance with Section 1.2 below, each of the Sellers does hereby grant, sell, transfer and deliver to the Company the used equipment described on Exhibit A attached hereto owned by it (for purposes of this Agreement, with respect to each Seller, references to “Equipment” refer to the equipment described on Exhibit A that are owned by that Seller).  Exhibit A sets forth, for each piece of Equipment, the purchase price, owner, physical location and whether currently in use.  Each of the Sellers shall deliver the Equipment to the Company DDP Company’s premises in ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, NJ.  Upon receipt of the Equipment, the Company shall have fifteen (15) calendar days (the “Acceptance Period”) to make such inspection of the Equipment, at the Company’s cost and expense, as it shall deem necessary or appropriate.  During the Acceptance Period, the Company may, in its sole and absolute discretion, reject any piece of Equipment; provided, that within three business days after the Acceptance Period, the Company shall notify Avaya in writing of any such Equipment that should be excluded from the ▇▇▇▇ of Sale to be delivered at Closing (the “Rejected Equipment”).

(b) The parties expressly acknowledge and agree that each of the Sellers shall retain, and shall be responsible for paying, performing and discharging when due, and the Company shall not assume or have any responsibility for, any and all debts, liabilities, charges, assessments or obligations of every kind or nature whatsoever that have accrued or may exist in respect of the Equipment prior to the Closing (the “Excluded Liabilities”).  The parties expressly acknowledge and agree that the Company shall assume and shall be responsible for paying, performing and discharging when due, and none of the Sellers shall have any responsibility for, any debts, liabilities, charges, assessments or obligations (of every kind or nature whatsoever) that accrue or may exist in respect of the Equipment on or after the Closing (the “Assumed Liabilities”).

Section 1.2 Purchase Price and Closing.  (a) The number of Shares to be issued by the Company to each of the Sellers at Closing (defined below) pursuant to the terms hereof shall be determined by dividing the Payment to be delivered at Closing to each Seller (as determined by aggregating the purchase price for the Equipment owned by each such Seller per Exhibit A) by the per share price of the Company’s Common Stock, which shall be calculated using the 30-day trailing volume-weighted average price of a share of Common Stock on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board as determined before the opening of trading in the Company’s Common Stock on the day immediately prior to Closing (the “Share Price”); provided, that the purchase price associated with the Equipment owned by a Seller, if any, that is rejected by the Company during the Acceptance Period shall be deducted from the Payment due to that Seller in accordance with the pricing set forth on Exhibit A.
 
(b) The Company and the Sellers are executing and delivering this Agreement in accordance with and in reliance upon the exemption from securities registration afforded by Section 4(2) of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the "Securities Act"), including Regulation D ("Regulation D"), and/or upon such other exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act as may be available with respect to any or all of the investments to be made hereunder.

(c) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and in consideration of the sale of the Equipment, the Company agrees to issue to each of the Sellers, and each of the Sellers, in consideration of and in express reliance upon the representations, warranties, covenants, terms and conditions of this Agreement, agrees to accept the Shares, each in connection with the execution of the ▇▇▇▇ of Sale which shall be substantially as attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “▇▇▇▇ of Sale”).  The closing of the purchase and sale of the Equipment to be acquired by the Company and the issuance of the Shares to the Sellers under this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place at such date and time as Avaya and the Company may agree upon (the "Closing Date"); provided, that all of the conditions set forth in Article IV hereof and applicable to the Closing shall have been fulfilled or waived in accordance herewith.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Closing the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Sellers the Shares and any other documents required to be delivered pursuant to Article IV hereof.  At the Closing, the Sellers shall deliver the executed ▇▇▇▇ of Sale.
 
ARTICLE II

Section 2.1 Representations and Warranties of the Company.  The Company hereby represents and warrants to each of the Sellers, as of the date hereof and the Closing Date (except as set forth on the Schedule of Exceptions attached hereto with each numbered Schedule corresponding to the section number herein), as follows:
 
(a) Organization, Good Standing and Power.  The Company is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has the requisite corporate power to own, lease and operate its properties and assets and to conduct its business as it is now being conducted.   The Company is duly qualified as a foreign entity to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such qualification necessary except for any jurisdiction(s) (alone or in the aggregate) in which the failure to be so qualified will not have a Material Adverse Effect.  For the purposes of this Agreement, "Material Adverse Effect" means any material adverse effect on the business, operations, properties or financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and/or any condition, circumstance, or situation that would prohibit or otherwise materially interfere with the ability of the Company to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not include operating losses and accrued sales taxes and regulatory fees in the amounts contemplated by the Commission Documents (as defined in Section 2.1(f) hereof).  For the purposes of this Agreement, "Subsidiary" shall mean any corporation or other entity of which at least a majority of the securities or other ownership interest having ordinary voting power (absolutely or contingently) for the election of directors or other persons performing similar functions are at the time owned directly or indirectly by the Company and/or any of its other Subsidiaries.  
 
(b) Authorization; Enforcement.  The Company has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement and the ▇▇▇▇ of Sale (collectively, the "Transaction Documents"), and to issue and sell the Securities in accordance with the terms hereof.  The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated thereby have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action, and no further consent or authorization of the Company, its Board of Directors or stockholders is required.  When executed and delivered by the Company, each of the Transaction Documents shall constitute a valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation, conservatorship, receivership or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally the enforcement of, creditor's rights and remedies or by other equitable principles of general application.
 
(c) Capitalization.  The authorized capital stock and the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company by type as of the date hereof is set forth on Schedule 2.1(c) hereto.  
 
(d) Issuance of Securities.  The Shares to be issued at the Closing will have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and the Shares, when paid for or issued in accordance with the terms hereof, shall be validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and non-assessable.

(e) No Conflicts.  The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated herein and therein do not and will not (i) violate or conflict with any provision of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate”) or Bylaws (the “Bylaws”), each as amended to date, or any Subsidiary's comparable charter documents, (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, indenture, note, bond, license, lease agreement, instrument or obligation to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries' respective properties or assets are bound, or (iii) result in a violation of any federal, state, local or foreign statute, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including federal and state securities laws and regulations) applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or by which any property or asset of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries are bound or affected, except, in all cases, for such conflicts, defaults, terminations, amendments, acceleration, cancellations and violations as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect (other than violations pursuant to clauses (i) or (iii) (with respect to federal and state securities laws)).  Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is required under federal, state, foreign or local law, rule or regulation to obtain any consent, authorization or order of, or make any filing or registration with, any court or governmental agency in order for it to execute, deliver or perform any of its obligations under the Transaction Documents or issue and sell the Securities in accordance with the terms hereof (other than any filings, consents and approvals which may be required to be made by the Company under applicable state and federal securities laws, rules or regulations and the Certificate of Designation).

(k) Compliance with Law.  The business of the Company and the Subsidiaries has been and is presently being conducted in accordance with all applicable federal, state and local governmental laws, rules, regulations and ordinances, except for any noncompliance therewith that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(n) Securities Act of 1933.  Based in material part upon the representations herein of Avaya, the Company has complied and will comply with all applicable federal and state securities laws in connection with the offer, issuance and sale of the Securities hereunder.

(f) General.  Such Seller understands that the Securities are being offered and sold in reliance on a transactional exemption from the registration requirements of federal and state securities laws and the Company is relying upon the truth and accuracy of the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of such Seller set forth herein in order to determine the applicability of such exemptions and the suitability of it to acquire the Securities.  Such Seller understands that no United States federal or state agency or any government or governmental agency has passed upon or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities.
 
(g) No General Solicitation.  Such Seller acknowledges that the Securities were not offered to it by means of any form of general or public solicitation or general advertising, or publicly disseminated advertisements or sales literature, including (i) any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine, or similar media, or broadcast over television or radio, or (ii) any seminar or meeting to which it was invited by any of the foregoing means of communications.  Such Seller, in making the decision to purchase the Securities, has relied upon independent investigation made by it and has not relied on any information or representations made by third parties.
 
(h) Accredited Investor.  Such Seller is an “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D) and has such experience in business and financial matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Securities.  Such Seller is not required to be registered as a broker-dealer under Section 15 of the Exchange Act and such Seller is not a broker-dealer.  Such Seller acknowledges that an investment in the Securities is speculative and involves a high degree of risk.

(k) Independent Investment.  Except as may be disclosed in any filings by Avaya with the Commission, such Seller has not agreed to act with any holder of the Company’s securities for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting or disposing of the Securities purchased hereunder for purposes of Section 13(d) under the Exchange Act, and such Seller is acting independently with respect to its investment in the Securities.  

(l) Actions Pending.  There is no action, suit, claim, investigation, arbitration, alternate dispute resolution proceeding or other proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of such Seller, threatened against such Seller or any of its Subsidiaries in respect of the Equipment or which questions the validity of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or to be taken pursuant hereto or thereto.

Section 3.8 Reserved. 
 
Section 3.9 Reserved.  
 
Section 3.10 Pledge of Securities.  The Company acknowledges that the Securities may be pledged by such Seller in connection with a loan or financing arrangement that is secured by the Securities.  The pledge of Securities shall not be deemed to be a transfer, sale or assignment of the Securities hereunder, and such Seller shall not be required to provide the Company with any notice thereof or otherwise make any delivery to the Company pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document; provided that such Seller and its pledgee shall be required to comply with the provisions of Article V hereof in order to effect a sale, transfer or assignment of Securities to such pledgee.

Section 3.12 Equipment.  (a) While in the custody of the Company or one of its agents or representatives and prior to Closing, the Company shall safeguard and maintain the Equipment using that degree of care as would be used by reasonable person entrusted with such equipment, and in any event using not less than that degree of care as it uses to safeguard and maintain its own equipment.

(b) The Company shall promptly return to such Seller, at the Company’s cost and expense, the Rejected Equipment to one or more locations (determined by such Seller) after it has been identified as Rejected Equipment.  The Company shall indemnify such Seller for any damage suffered by the Rejected Equipment while in the custody of the Company or one of its agents or representatives.  In addition, to the extent that, while in the custody of the Company or one of its agents or representatives, the Equipment causes loss or damage to the person or property of another (a “Third-Party Claim”), then the Company shall indemnify each Seller for all losses, costs, damages and expenses incurred by it in connection with such Third-Party Claims, except where such losses were caused by the act or omission of a Seller or its agents.

Section 3.13 Put Rights.  (a) If at any time between the first anniversary of the Closing Date and the date that is 18 months following the Closing Date (such six-month period, the “Repurchase Period”) the closing price of the Common Stock on the OTC Bulletin Board (or other exchange or market on which the Common Stock is then trading) on any given trading day shall be less than the Share Price, then each Seller shall have the right to demand that the Company repurchase from it, in a single transaction, not more than 50% of the Shares delivered to such Seller at Closing (the “Put Right”) by delivering written notice to the Company (the “Put Notice”); provided, that in order for the Put Notice to be effective, it must (i) be delivered to the Company within two (2) business days of such trading day, (ii) specify the number of Shares to be repurchased and (iii) specify the date for such repurchase to occur, which date shall not be less than five (5) business days (and not more than ten (10) business days) after the date of the Put Notice (the “Put Date”).  On the Put Date, the Company shall deliver to such Seller, in exchange for the Shares subject to the Put Notice, a cash payment equal to the total number of Shares subject to the Put Notice multiplied by the Share Price.  The rights of the Sellers set forth in this Section 3.13(a) shall expire at the end of the Repurchase Period.

(b) The Company expressly acknowledges and agrees that any Seller may transfer its Put Right to another Seller (such that the transferee Seller would be able to include the applicable number of Shares in its own Put Notice) at any time by providing written notice thereof to the Company; provided, that in order for a Seller to take advantage of any such transferred Put Right, such written notice must be received by the Company not less than five (5) business days prior to the applicable Put Date; provided, that in no event shall the aggregate number of Shares repurchased by the Company pursuant to Section 13(a) exceed 50% of the Shares delivered to the Sellers at Closing.

Section 5.1 Legend.  Each certificate representing the Securities shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend substantially in the following form (in addition to any legend required by applicable state securities or "blue sky" laws):
 
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE (THE "SECURITIES") HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT") OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNLESS REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR GLOWPOINT, INC. SHALL HAVE RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL THAT REGISTRATION OF SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS IS NOT REQUIRED.
 
The Company agrees to issue or reissue certificates representing any of the Securities, without the legend set forth above if at such time, prior to making any transfer of any such Securities, such holder thereof shall give written notice to the Company describing the manner and terms of such transfer and removal as the Company may reasonably request, and provided the conditions set forth in this paragraph shall have been met.  Such proposed transfer and removal will not be effected until: (a) either (i) the Company has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that the registration of the Securities under the Securities Act is not required in connection with such proposed transfer, (ii) a registration statement under the Securities Act covering such proposed disposition has been filed by the Company with the Commission and has become effective under the Securities Act, (iii) the Company has received other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such registration and qualification under the Securities Act and state securities laws are not required, or (iv) the holder provides the Company with reasonable assurances that such security can be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act; and (b) either (i) the Company has received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that registration or qualification under the securities or "blue sky" laws of any state is not required in connection with such proposed disposition, (ii) compliance with applicable state securities or "blue sky" laws has been effected, or (iii) the holder provides the Company with reasonable assurances that a valid exemption exists with respect thereto.  The Company will respond to any such notice from a holder within three (3) business days.  In the case of any proposed transfer under this Section 5.1, the Company will use reasonable efforts to comply with any such applicable state securities or "blue sky" laws, but shall in no event be required, (x) to qualify to do business in any state where it is not then qualified, (y) to take any action that would subject it to tax or to the general service of process in any state where it is not then subject, or (z) to comply with state securities or “blue sky” laws of any state for which registration by coordination is unavailable to the Company.  The restrictions on transfer contained in this Section 5.1 shall be in addition to, and not by way of limitation of, any other restrictions on transfer contained in any other section of this Agreement.  Whenever a certificate representing the Securities is required to be issued to Avaya without a legend, in lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Securities, provided the Company's transfer agent is participating in the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") Fast Automated Securities Transfer program, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Securities to Avaya by crediting the account of Avaya's Prime Broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission ("DWAC") system (to the extent not inconsistent with any provisions of this Agreement).

ARTICLE VI
INDEMNIFICATION
 
Section 6.1 General Indemnity.  The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Seller (and its directors, officers, managers, partners, members, shareholders, affiliates, agents, successors and assigns) from and against any and all losses, liabilities, deficiencies, costs, damages and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, charges and disbursements) incurred by such Seller as a result of (a) any inaccuracy in or breach of the representations, warranties or covenants made by the Company herein or (b) the ownership or operation of the Equipment on or after the Closing, including, without limitation, any of the Assumed Liabilities.  Each Seller agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its directors, officers, affiliates, agents, successors and assigns from and against any and all losses, liabilities, deficiencies, costs, damages and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, charges and disbursements) incurred by the Company as result of (a) any inaccuracy in or breach of the representations, warranties or covenants made by such Seller herein (b) the ownership or operation of the Equipment prior to the Closing, including, without limitation, any Excluded Liability or (c) the transfer of any Put Right pursuant to the terms of Section 3.13(b).  The maximum aggregate liability of each party pursuant to its indemnification obligations under this Article VI shall not exceed an amount equal to the Payment.
 
Section 6.2 Indemnification Procedure.  Any party entitled to indemnification under this Article VI (an "indemnified party") will give written notice to the indemnifying party of any matter giving rise to a claim for indemnification; provided, that the failure of any party entitled to indemnification hereunder to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under this Article VI except to the extent that the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice.  In case any such action, proceeding or claim is brought against an indemnified party in respect of which indemnification is sought hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, unless in the reasonable judgment of the indemnifying party a conflict of interest between it and the indemnified party exists with respect to such action, proceeding or claim (in which case the indemnifying party shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of one separate counsel for the indemnified parties), to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party.  In the event that the indemnifying party advises an indemnified party that it will not contest such a claim for indemnification hereunder, or fails, within thirty (30) days of receipt of any indemnification notice to notify, in writing, such person of its election to defend, settle or compromise, at its sole cost and expense, any action, proceeding or claim (or discontinues its defense at any time after it commences such defense), then the indemnified party may, at its option, defend, settle or otherwise compromise or pay such action or claim.  In any event, unless and until the indemnifying party elects in writing to assume and does so assume the defense of any such claim, proceeding or action, the indemnified party's costs and expenses arising out of the defense, settlement or compromise of any such action, claim or proceeding shall be losses subject to indemnification hereunder.  The indemnified party shall cooperate fully with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the indemnified party which relates to such action or claim.  The indemnifying party shall keep the indemnified party fully apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto.  If the indemnifying party elects to defend any such action or claim, then the indemnified party shall be entitled to participate in such defense with counsel of its choice at its sole cost and expense.  The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent.  Notwithstanding anything in this Article VI to the contrary, the indemnifying party shall not, without the indemnified party's prior written consent, settle or compromise any claim or consent to entry of any judgment in respect thereof which imposes any future obligation on the indemnified party or which does not include, as an unconditional term thereof, the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim.  The indemnification obligations to defend the indemnified party required by this Article VI shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or expense, loss, damage or liability is incurred, so long as the indemnified party shall refund such moneys if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such party was not entitled to indemnification.  The indemnity agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (a) any cause of action or similar rights of the indemnified party against the indemnifying party or others, and (b) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.  No indemnifying party will be liable to the indemnified party under this Agreement to the extent, but only to the extent that a loss, claim, damage or liability is attributable to the indemnified party’s breach of any of the representations, warranties or covenants made by such party in this Agreement or in the other Transaction Documents.
