4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF PURCHASER. Purchaser represents and
warrants to the Company that:
4.1 Purchase for Own Account for Investment. Purchaser is
purchasing the Shares for Purchaser's own account for investment purposes only
and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, a distribution of the
Shares within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Purchaser
has no present intention of selling or otherwise disposing of all or any portion
of the Shares and no one other than Purchaser (and his spouse as designated in
Section 1.2) has any beneficial ownership of any of the Shares.
4.2 Access to Information. Purchaser has had access to all
information regarding the Company and its present and prospective business,
assets, liabilities and financial condition that Purchaser reasonably considers
important in making the decision to purchase the Shares, and Purchaser has had
ample opportunity to ask questions of the Company's representatives concerning
such matters and this investment.
4.3 Understanding of Risks. Purchaser is fully aware of: (i) the
volatility of the market price of the Company's Common Stock; (ii) the lack of
liquidity of the Shares and the restrictions on transferability of the Shares
(e.g., that Purchaser may not be able to sell or dispose of the Shares or use
them as collateral for loans); and (iii) the tax consequences of investment in
the Shares. Purchaser is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of this
investment, has the ability to protect Purchaser's own interests in this
transaction and is financially capable of bearing a total loss of this
investment.
4.4 No General Solicitation. At no time was Purchaser presented
with or solicited by any publicly issued or circulated newspaper, mail, radio,
television or other form of general advertising or solicitation in connection
with the offer, sale and purchase of the Shares.
5. COMPANY'S REPURCHASE OPTION FOR UNVESTED SHARES. The Company, or its
assignee, shall have the option to repurchase all or a portion of the
Purchaser's Unvested Shares (as defined in Section 5.1 below) on the terms and
conditions set forth in this Section 5 (the "REPURCHASE OPTION") if Purchaser's
employment with the Company is terminated for any reason, or no reason,
including without limitation Purchaser's death, disability, voluntary or
involuntary resignation or termination by the Company with or without cause.
5.1 Unvested and Vested Shares. Shares that are vested pursuant
to the schedule set forth in Section 5.2 below are "VESTED SHARES." Shares that
are not vested pursuant
2
3
to the schedule set forth in Section 5.2 are "UNVESTED SHARES." The number of
Shares that are Vested Shares or Unvested Shares will be proportionally adjusted
for any stock split or similar change in the capital structure of the Company.
5.2 Vesting Schedule. The Shares will vest over a ten-year
period. On the Effective Date all of the Shares will be Unvested Shares.
Provided Purchaser remains continuously employed with the Company, 30,000 Shares
will vest on January 24, 2001, the first anniversary of Purchaser's employment,
and the remaining 120,000 Shares shall vest over each of the next four years as
to 30,000 Shares on each subsequent anniversary of Purchaser's employment.
Provided Purchaser remains continuously employed with the Company he shall be
fully vested in all Shares on January 24, 2005. In the event Purchaser's
employment with the Company is terminated due to "INVOLUNTARY TERMINATION,"
"TERMINATION WITHOUT CAUSE" or "TERMINATION FOR DEATH OR DISABILITY," each as
defined in the Employment Agreement, the vesting of the Shares will accelerate
as set forth in Section 5.3 below. In the event Purchaser's employment with the
Company is terminated due to "VOLUNTARY TERMINATION" or "TERMINATION FOR CAUSE,"
the Shares will cease vesting on the date Purchaser's employment with the
Company terminates, and the Company or its assignee(s) will have a Repurchase
Option as to all Unvested Shares on such date. Hereinafter, the date on which
Purchaser's employment with the Company ends shall be referred to as the
"TERMINATION DATE."
5.3 Acceleration of Vesting. If Purchaser suffers an Involuntary
Termination or Termination Without Cause, or in the event of Purchaser's
Termination for Death or Disability, all Unvested Shares shall vest in full on
the Termination Date and the Company shall not retain a Repurchase Option as to
any of the Shares.
5.4 Exercise of Repurchase Option. At any time within one year
after the Termination Date, the Company or its assignee(s) may elect to
repurchase any or all of the Purchaser's Unvested Shares by giving Purchaser
written notice of its exercise of the Repurchase Option. Any Unvested Shares as
to which the Repurchase Option is not exercised within the one-year period
following the Termination Date shall immediately become Vested Shares.
5.5 Calculation of Repurchase Price. The Company or its
assignee(s) shall have the option to repurchase from Purchaser any or all of the
Unvested Shares at $0.01 per Share (as adjusted to reflect any stock split or
similar change in the capital structure of the Company). The Company will pay
the repurchase price to Purchaser within 30 days after providing its notice of
election to exercise the Repurchase Option pursuant to Section 5.4 above.
6. ESCROW. Purchaser agrees to deliver the stock certificates evidencing
the Shares together with the Stock Powers executed by Purchaser to the Secretary
of the Company or other designee of the Company (the "ESCROW HOLDER"). The
Escrow Holder is hereby appointed to hold such certificates and Stock Powers in
escrow and to take all such actions and to effectuate all such transfers and/or
releases of such Shares as are in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
Escrow Holder will act solely for the Company as its agent and not as a
fiduciary. Purchaser and the Company agree that Escrow Holder will not be liable
to any party to this Agreement (or to any other party) for any actions or
omissions unless Escrow Holder is grossly negligent or intentionally fraudulent
in carrying out the duties of Escrow Holder under this
3
4
Agreement. Escrow Holder may rely upon any letter, notice or other document
executed by any signature purported to be genuine and may rely upon the advice
of counsel and obey any order of any court with respect to the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement. Upon request from Purchaser, Vested Shares will
be released from escrow upon termination of the Repurchase Option with respect
to such Shares described in Section 5 above.
7. RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, Purchaser will have all of the rights of a stockholder of the Company
with respect to the Shares from and after the Effective Date until such time as
Purchaser disposes of the Shares or the Company and/or its assignee(s)
exercise(s) the Repurchase Option. Upon an exercise of the Repurchase Option,
Purchaser will have no further rights as a holder of the Shares that are
purchased upon such exercise, other than the right to receive payment for the
Shares so purchased in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, and
Purchaser will promptly surrender the stock certificate(s) evidencing the Shares
so purchased that are not held by the Escrow Agent to the Company for transfer
or cancellation.
8. RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS AND STOP-TRANSFER INSTRUCTIONS.
8.1 Legends. Purchaser understands and agrees that the Company

ADVISER THAT PURCHASER DEEMS ADVISABLE IN CONNECTION WITH THE PURCHASE OR
DISPOSITION OF THE SHARES AND (ii) THAT PURCHASER IS NOT RELYING ON THE COMPANY
FOR ANY TAX ADVICE. Purchaser hereby acknowledges that Purchaser has been

Internal Revenue Code (and similar state tax provisions, if applicable) to be
taxed currently on any difference between the Purchase Price of the Shares and
their fair market value on the date of purchase, there will be a recognition of
taxable income to the Purchaser, measured by the excess, if any, of the fair
market value of the Vested Shares, at the time they cease to be Unvested Shares,
over the Purchase Price for such Shares. Purchaser represents that Purchaser has
consulted any tax advisers Purchaser deems advisable in connection with
Purchaser's purchase of the Shares and the filing of the election under Section
83(b) and similar tax provisions. A form of Election under Section 83(b) is

Purchaser's heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors
and assigns.
