2.1 THE COMMITMENT. Subject to the terms and conditions of
this Agreement, Lender agrees to make term loans to Borrower from time to time
from the Closing Date and to, but not including, the Termination Date in an
aggregate principal amount not exceeding the Commitment. The Commitment is
4
not a revolving credit commitment, and Borrower shall not have the right to
repay and reborrow hereunder.
2.2 LIMITATION ON LOANS.
(A) Each Loan shall be in an amount not to exceed one
hundred percent (100%) of the amount paid or payable by Borrower to a
non-affiliated manufacturer, vendor or dealer for an item of equipment
as shown on an invoice therefor (excluding any commissions and any
portion of the payment which relates to the servicing of the equipment
and sales taxes payable by Borrower upon acquisition, and delivery
charges).
(B) Lender shall not be obligated to make any Loan
under its Commitment if at the time of or after giving effect to the
proposed Loan Lender would no longer qualify as: (A) a "venture capital
operating company" under U.S. Department of Labor Regulations Section
2510.3-101(d), Title 29 of the Code of Federal Regulations, as amended;
and (B) a "business development company" under the provisions of
federal Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended; and (C) a
"regulated investment company" under the provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Each Loan requested by Borrower to be
made on a single Business Day shall be for a minimum principal amount
of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000), except to the extent the remaining
Commitment is a lesser amount.
2.3 NOTES EVIDENCING LOANS; REPAYMENT. Each Loan shall be
evidenced by a separate Note payable to the order of Lender substantially in the
form of EXHIBIT "A" to this Agreement, in the total principal amount of the
Loan. Each Note shall be payable as follows: Principal and Basic Interest shall
be paid in forty two (42) equal and successive monthly payments, in advance,
beginning on the Borrowing Date and continuing on the first Business Day of each
month thereafter; provided, that the first and last such amortization
installment payments shall be paid in advance on the Borrowing Date. If the
Borrowing Date is not the first day of a month, then the 42-month amortization
period shall commence on the first day of the next month following the Borrowing
Date, and interest only shall accrue and be payable for the period from the
Borrowing Date to the first day of the next month. Borrower shall pay to Lender,
in advance, on the Borrowing Date a payment of Basic Interest on the amount of
any Loan that is not made on the first day of the month for interest that will
accrue on such Loan from the Borrowing Date through the last day of the same
month. The payment of amortization installments of principal of and interest on
a Loan in advance results in a higher effective rate of interest than the stated
Designated Rate applicable to such Loan. The full amount of the Terminal Payment
with respect to each Loan shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date of such
Loan.
2.4 PROCEDURES FOR BORROWING.
(A) Borrower shall give Lender, at least five (5)
Business Days' prior to a proposed Borrowing Date, written notice of
any request for borrowing hereunder (a "Borrowing Request"). Each
Borrowing Request shall be in substantially the form of EXHIBIT "B"
hereto, shall be executed by the chief financial or accounting officer
of Borrower, and shall state how much is requested, and shall be
accompanied by such information and documentation as Lender may deem
reasonably necessary to determine whether the proposed borrowing will
comply with the limitations in SECTION 2.2.
5
(B) No later than 1:00 p.m. Pacific Standard Time on
the Borrowing Date, if Borrower has satisfied the conditions precedent
in Article 4, Lender shall make the Loan available to Borrower in
immediately available funds.
2.5 INTEREST. Basic Interest on the outstanding principal
balance of the each Loan shall accrue daily at the Designated Rate from the
Borrowing Date until the Maturity Date.
2.6 TERMINAL PAYMENT. Borrower shall pay the Terminal Payment
with respect to each Loan on the Maturity Date of such Loan.
2.7 INTEREST RATE CALCULATION. Basic Interest, along with
charges and fees under this Agreement and any Loan Document, shall be calculated
for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 360-day year, which results in higher
interest, charge or fee payments than if a 365-day year were used. In no event
shall Borrower be obligated to pay Lender interest, charges or fees at a rate in
excess of the highest rate permitted by applicable law from time to time in
effect.
2.8 DEFAULT INTEREST. Any unpaid payments of principal or
interest or the Terminal Payment with respect to any Loan shall bear interest
from their respective maturities, whether scheduled or accelerated, at the
Designated Rate for such Loan PLUS five percent (5.00%) per annum, until paid in
full, whether before or after judgment (the "Default Rate"). Borrower shall pay
such interest on demand.
2.9 LENDER'S RECORDS. Principal, Basic Interest, Terminal
Payments and all other sums owed under any Loan Document shall be evidenced by
entries in records maintained by Lender for such purpose. Each payment on and
any other credits with respect to principal, Basic Interest, Terminal Payments
and all other sums outstanding under any Loan Document shall be evidenced by
entries in such records. Absent manifest error, Lender's records shall be
conclusive evidence thereof.
2.10 SECURITY. As security for all Obligations to Lender,
Borrower shall grant concurrently to Lender, or ensure that Lender is
concurrently granted, perfected security interests in all Collateral pursuant to
the Security Agreement and such other Lien documentation satisfactory in form
and substance to Lender, subject only to Permitted Liens.
2.11 ISSUANCE OF WARRANTS TO LENDER. As additional
consideration for its Commitment and obligations under this Agreement, and as a
condition to funding the initial Loan, Lender and its broker (Xxxxxx X.
Xxxxxxxxx) shall be entitled to receive one or more warrants to purchase a
number of shares of preferred stock of Borrower ("Warrant Shares") with an
aggregate value equal to seven percent (7%) of the Commitment. The Warrant
Shares shall vest in two equal parts. The first 50% shall vest upon the closing
of this commitment at $2.51 per share. The remaining 50% shall vest upon the
borrowing of any portion of the Remaining Availability at a price determined by
1) if any part of the Remaining Availability is borrowed prior to the closing of
an additional round of venture capital or corporate partner equity financing of
at least $3,000,000 ("Round C"), $2.51 per share, 2) if none of the Remaining
Availability is borrowed prior to the closing of Round C, the per share price of
preferred stock issued in Round C. The warrant issued under this Agreement shall
be in substantially the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT "D"; shall be
transferable by Lender, subject to compliance with applicable securities laws;
shall expire on December 31, 2002 or earlier as described in the warrant; and
6

ARTICLE 8 - GENERAL PROVISIONS
8.1 NOTICES. Any notice given by any party under any Loan

to the other party's or parties' addresses shown on the signature pages hereto.
Each party may change the address or facsimile number to which notices, requests
and other communications are to be sent by giving written
14
notice of such change to each other party. Notice given by hand delivery shall
be deemed received on the date delivered; if sent by overnight courier, on the
next business day after delivery to the courier service; if by first class mail,
on the third business day after deposit in the U.S. Mail; and if by telecopy, on
the date of transmission.
8.2 BINDING EFFECT. The Loan Documents shall be binding upon
and inure to the benefit of Borrower and Lender and their respective successors
and assigns; provided, however, that Borrower may not assign or transfer
Borrower's rights or obligations under any Loan Document without Lender's prior
written consent except in connection with a consolidation, merger or other
transaction in compliance with Section 6.4 of this Agreement. Lender reserves
the right to sell, assign, transfer, negotiate or grant participations in all or
any part of, or any interest in, Lender's rights and obligations under the Loan
Documents. In connection with any of the foregoing, Lender may disclose all
documents and information which Lender now or hereafter may have relating to the
Loans, Borrower, or its business; provided that any person who receives such
information shall have agreed in writing in advance to maintain the
confidentiality of such information on terms reasonably acceptable to Borrower.
8.3 NO WAIVER. Any waiver, consent or approval by Lender of
any Event of Default or breach of any provision, condition, or covenant of any
Loan Document must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent set
forth in writing. No waiver of any breach or default shall be deemed a waiver of
any later breach or default of the same or any other provision of any Loan
Document. No failure or delay on the part of Lender in exercising any power,
right, or privilege under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof,
and no single or partial exercise of any such power, right, or privilege shall
preclude any further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power, right
or privilege. Lender has the right at its sole option to continue to accept
interest and/or principal payments due under the Loan Documents after default,
and such acceptance shall not constitute a waiver of said default or an
extension of the Maturity Date unless Lender agrees otherwise in writing.
8.4 RIGHTS CUMULATIVE. All rights and remedies existing under
the Loan Documents are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any other rights or
remedies available under contract or applicable law.
8.5 UNENFORCEABLE PROVISIONS. Any provision of any Loan
Document executed by Borrower which is prohibited or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction, shall be so only as to such jurisdiction and only to the extent of
such prohibition or unenforceability, but all the remaining provisions of any
such Loan Document shall remain valid and enforceable.

Agreement, accounting terms and financial covenants and information shall be
determined and prepared in accordance with GAAP.
8.7 INDEMNIFICATION; EXCULPATION. Borrower shall pay and
protect, defend and indemnify Lender and Lender's employees, officers,
directors, shareholders, affiliates, correspondents, agents and representatives
(other than Lender, collectively "Agents") against, and hold Lender and each
such Agent harmless from, all claims, actions, proceedings, liabilities,
damages, losses, expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and
costs) and other amounts incurred by Lender and each such Agent, arising from
(i) the matters contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, (ii)
financing statement of record outstanding at the time of this Agreement, or
(iii) any contention that Borrower has failed to
15
comply with any law, rule, regulation, order or directive applicable to
Borrower's business; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that this indemnification shall not
apply to any of the foregoing incurred solely as the result of Lender's or any
Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct. This indemnification shall
survive the payment and satisfaction of all of Borrower's Obligations to Lender.
8.8 REIMBURSEMENT. Borrower shall reimburse Lender for all
costs and expenses, including without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees and
disbursements expended or incurred by Lender in any arbitration, mediation,
judicial reference, legal action or otherwise in connection with (a) the
preparation and negotiation of the Loan Documents, $1,000, (b) the amendment,
interpretation and enforcement of the Loan Documents, including without
limitation during any workout, attempted workout, and/or in connection with the
rendering of legal advice as to Lender's rights, remedies and obligations under
the Loan Documents, (c) collecting any sum which becomes due Lender under any
Loan Document, (d) any proceeding for declaratory relief, any counterclaim to
any proceeding, or any appeal, or (e) the protection, preservation or
enforcement of any rights of Lender. For the purposes of this section,
attorneys' fees shall include, without limitation, fees incurred in connection
with the following: (1) contempt proceedings; (2) discovery; (3) any motion,
proceeding or other activity of any kind in connection with an Insolvency
Proceeding; (4) garnishment, levy, and debtor and third party examinations; and

limitation any activity taken to collect or enforce any judgment. All of the
foregoing costs and expenses shall be payable upon demand by Lender, and if not
paid within forty-five (45) days of presentation of invoices shall bear interest
at the highest applicable Default Rate.
8.9 EXECUTION IN COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed
in any number of counterparts which, when taken together, shall constitute but
one agreement.
8.10 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. The Loan Documents are intended by the
parties as the final expression of their agreement and therefore contain the
entire agreement between the parties and supersede all prior understandings or
agreements concerning the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may be amended
only in a writing signed by Borrower and Lender.
8.11 GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION.
(A) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE
GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA.

LITIGATION OF ANY TYPE BROUGHT BY ANY OF THE PARTIES AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY OR
ANY PARTICIPANT OR ASSIGNEE, WHETHER WITH RESPECT TO CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT
CLAIMS, OR OTHERWISE. BORROWER AND LENDER EACH AGREES THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM OR
CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE TRIED BY A COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY. WITHOUT LIMITING
THE FOREGOING, THE PARTIES FURTHER AGREE THAT THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL
BY JURY IS WAIVED BY OPERATION OF THIS SECTION AS TO ANY ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR
OTHER PROCEEDING WHICH SEEMS, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, TO CHALLENGE THE VALIDITY OR
ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY PROVISION
HEREOF OR THEREOF. THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS,
RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN

defined in the Loan Agreement shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder.
(a) Any failure by Debtor to perform any of its duties or
obligations under this Agreement, or breach by Debtor of any of its
representations herein, where such failure or breach by debtor is not cured
within 30 days from the sooner of 1) Debtor's receipt of notice of such
breech or the date on which such breech becomes known to any officer of the
Debtor; provided, HOWEVER
6
that if such breach is not capable of being cured within such 30-day period
and Borrower timely notifies Lender of such fact and Borrower diligently
pursues such cure, then the cure period shall be extended to the date
requested in Borrower's notice but in no event more than 90 days from the
initial breach; PROVIDED, FURTHER, that such additional 60-day opportunity to
cure shall not apply in the case of any failure to perform or observe any
covenant which has been the subject of a prior failure within the preceding
180 days or which is a willful and knowing breach by Borrower.
6.2 ACCELERATION AND REMEDIES. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default, Secured Party shall be entitled to, at
Secured Party's option, (a) declare all or any part of the Indebtedness
immediately due and payable; (b) exercise any or all of the rights and
remedies available to a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code or
any other applicable law; and (c) exercise any or all of Secured Party's
rights and remedies provided for in this Agreement and in any other Loan
Document. The obligations of Debtor under this Agreement shall continue to be
effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of
any Indebtedness is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by Secured Party
upon, on account of, or in connection with, the insolvency, bankruptcy or
reorganization of Debtor, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not
been made.
6.3 SALE OF COLLATERAL. After the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, Secured Party may sell all or any part of
the Collateral, at public or private sales, to itself, a wholesaler, retailer
or investor, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, and at such price
or prices as Secured Party may deem commercially reasonable. To the extent
permitted by law, Debtor hereby specifically waives all rights of redemption
and any rights of stay or appraisal which it has or may have under any
applicable law in effect from time to time. Any such public or private sales
shall be held at such times and at such place(s) as Secured Party may
determine. In case of the sale of all or any part of the Collateral on credit
or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by Secured
Party until the selling price is paid by the purchaser, but Secured Party
shall not incur any liability in case of the failure of such purchaser to pay
for the Collateral and, in case of any such failure, such Collateral may be
resold. Secured Party may, instead of exercising its power of sale, proceed
to enforce its security interest in the Collateral by seeking a judgment or
decree of a court of competent jurisdiction.
6.4 DEBTOR'S OBLIGATION UPON DEFAULT. Upon the request of Secured
Party after the occurrence of an Event of Default Debtor will:
7
(a) Assemble and make available to Secured Party the Collateral
at such place(s) as Secured Party shall designate, segregating all Collateral
so that each item is capable of identification; and
(b) Subject to rights of any previous lessor, permit Secured
Party, by Secured Party's officers, employees, agents and representatives, to
enter any premises where any Collateral is located, to take possession of the
Collateral and to remove the Collateral or to conduct any public or private
sale of the Collateral, all without any liability of Secured Party for rent
or other compensation for the use of Debtor's premises.
ARTICLE 7 - SPECIAL COLLATERAL PROVISIONS
7.1 PERFORMANCE OF DEBTOR'S OBLIGATIONS. Without having any
obligation to do so, upon reasonable prior notice to Debtor, Secured Party
may perform or pay any obligation which Debtor has agreed to perform or pay
under this Agreement, including, without limitation, the payment or discharge
of taxes or Liens levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral.
In so performing or paying, Secured Party shall determine the action to be
taken and the amount necessary to discharge such obligations. Debtor shall
reimburse Secured Party on demand for any amounts paid by Secured Party
pursuant to this Section, which amounts shall constitute Indebtedness secured
by the Collateral and shall bear interest from the date of demand at the rate
applicable to overdue payments under the Loan Agreement.
7.2 POWER OF ATTORNEY. For the purpose of protecting, preserving
and enforcing the Collateral and Secured Party's rights under this Agreement,
Debtor hereby irrevocably appoints Secured Party, with full power of
substitution, as its attorney-in-fact with full power and authority to do any
act which Debtor is obligated to do, or Secured Party has the right to do,
hereunder; to exercise such rights with respect to the Collateral as Debtor
might exercise; to use such Equipment, Fixtures or other property as Debtor
might use; to enter Debtor's premises; to give notice of Secured Party's
security interest in and to collect the Collateral and the Proceeds; and to
execute and file in Debtor's name any financing statements, amendments and
continuation statements necessary or desirable to perfect or continue the
perfection of Secured Party's security interests in the Collateral. Debtor
hereby ratifies all that Secured Party shall lawfully do or cause to be done
by virtue of this appointment.
7.3 AUTHORIZATION FOR SECURED PARTY TO TAKE CERTAIN ACTION. The
power of attorney created in Section 7.2 is a power coupled with an interest
and shall be irrevocable. The powers conferred on Secured Party hereunder are
solely to protect its interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any
duty upon Secured Party
8
to exercise such powers. Secured Party shall be accountable only for amounts
that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers and in
no event shall Secured Party or any of its directors, officers, employees,
agents or representatives be responsible to Debtor for any act or failure to
act, except for gross negligence or willful misconduct. Secured Party may
exercise this power of attorney without notice to or assent of Debtor, in the
name of Debtor, or in Secured Party's own name, from time to time in Secured
Party's sole discretion and at Debtor's expense. To further carry out the
terms of this Agreement, Secured Party may upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default:
(a) Execute any statements or documents to take possession of,
and endorse and collect and receive delivery or payment of, any checks,
drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments and documents constituting
the payment of amounts due and to become due or any performance to be
rendered with respect to the Collateral.
(b) Sign and endorse any invoices, freight or express bills,
bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts, certificates and
statements under any commercial or standby letter of credit, assignments,
leases, bills of sale, or any other documents relating to the Collateral,
including without limitation the Records.
(c) Use or operate Collateral or any other property of Debtor
for the purpose of preserving or liquidating Collateral.
(d) File any claim or take any other action or proceeding in
any court of law or equity or as otherwise deemed appropriate by Secured
Party for the purpose of collecting any and all monies due or securing any
performance to be rendered with respect to the Collateral.
(e) Commence, prosecute or defend any suits, actions or
proceedings or as otherwise deemed appropriate by Secured Party for the
purpose of protecting or collecting the Collateral. In furtherance of this
right, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default
Secured Party may apply for the appointment of a receiver or similar official
to operate Debtor's business.
(f) Prepare, adjust, execute, deliver and receive payment under
insurance claims, and collect and receive payment of and endorse any
instrument in payment of loss or returned premiums or any other insurance
refund or return, and apply such amounts, at Secured Party's sole discretion,
toward repayment of the Indebtedness or replacement of the Collateral.
7.4 APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS. Any Proceeds and other monies or
property received by Secured Party pursuant to the terms of
9
this Agreement or any Loan Document may be applied by Secured Party first to
the payment of expenses of collection, including without limitation to
reasonable attorneys' fees, and then to the payment of the Indebtedness in
such order of application as Secured Party may elect.
7.5 DEFICIENCY. If the proceeds of any sale of the Collateral are
insufficient to cover all costs and expenses of such sale and the payment in
full of all Indebtedness, plus all other sums required to be expended or
distributed by Secured Party, then Debtor shall be liable for any such
deficiency.
7.6 SECURED PARTY TRANSFER. Upon the transfer of all or any part of
the Indebtedness, Secured Party may transfer all or any part of its interest
in the Collateral and shall be fully discharged thereafter from all liability
and responsibility with respect to such interest in the Collateral so
transferred, and the transferee shall be vested with all the rights and
powers of Secured Party hereunder with respect to such interest in the
Collateral so transferred.
ARTICLE 8 - GENERAL PROVISIONS

its permitted successors, representatives and assigns, and shall inure to the

Agreement are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any other rights or
remedies available under contract or applicable law.

is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall be so only as to
such jurisdiction and only to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability, but all the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall

provided by the Uniform Commercial Code, this Agreement shall be governed by
and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California.

WARRANT TO PURCHASE
SHARES OF SERIES B1 PREFERRED STOCK OF
IMGIS, INC.
(Void after December 31, 2002)
This certifies that VENTURE LENDING & LEASING, INC., a Maryland
corporation, or assigns (the "Holder"), for value received, is entitled to
purchase from IMGIS, INC., a California corporation (the "Company"), A number
of fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Company's Series B1 Preferred
Stock ("Preferred Stock") with a value equal to six and 30/100 percent (6.3%)
of the Commitment at any time or from time to time up to and including 5: 00
p.m. (Pacific time) on December, 2002 or earlier as described in section l(d)
of this Warrant, upon surrender to the Company at its principal office at 000
Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxx 000 Xxxxx Xxxx, XX 00000 (or at such other location as
the Company may advise Holder in writing) of this Warrant properly endorsed
with the Form of Subscription attached hereto duly filled in and signed and
upon payment in cash or by check of the aggregate Stock Purchase Price for
the number of shares for which this Warrant is being exercised determined in
accordance with the provisions hereof.
The Warrant Shares shall vest in two equal parts. The first 50% shall vest
upon the closing of this commitment at a price of (the "Stock Purchase
Price") $2.51 per share. The remaining 50% shall vest upon the borrowing of
any portion of the Remaining Availability at a price determined by 1) if any
part of the Remaining Availability is borrowed prior to the closing of an
additional round of venture capital or corporate partner equity financing of
at least $3,000,000 (Round C), $2.51 per share, 2) if none of the Remaining
Availability is borrowed prior to the closing of Round C, the per share price
of preferred stock issued in Round C. The Stock Purchase Price and the number
of shares purchasable hereunder are subject to adjustment as provided in
Section 4 of this Warrant.
This Warrant is subject to the
following terms and conditions:
1. EXERCISE; ISSUANCE OF CERTIFICATES; PAYMENT
FOR SHARES.
(a) Unless an election is made pursuant to clause (b) of this
Section 1, this Warrant shall be exercisable at the option of the Holder, at
any time or from time to time, on or before the Expiration Date for all or
any portion of the shares of Preferred Stock (but not for a fraction of a
share) which may be purchased hereunder for the Stock Purchase Price
multiplied by the number of shares to be purchased. In the event, however,
that pursuant to the Company's Articles of Incorporation, as amended, an
event causing automatic conversion of the Company's Preferred Stock shall
have occurred prior to the exercise of this Warrant, in whole or in part,
then this Warrant shall be exercisable for the number of shares of Common
Stock of the Company into which the Preferred Stock not purchased upon any
prior exercise of the Warrant would have been so converted (and, where the
context requires, reference to "Preferred Stock" shall be deemed to include
such Common Stock). The Company agrees that the shares of Preferred Stock
purchased under this Warrant shall be and are deemed to be issued to the
holder hereof as the record owner of such shares as of the close of business
on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered and payment
made for such shares. Subject to the provisions of Section 2, certificates
for the shares of Preferred Stock so purchased, together with any other
securities or property to which the Holder hereof is entitled upon such
exercise, shall be delivered to the Holder hereof by the Company at the
Company's expense within a reasonable time after the rights represented by
this Warrant have been so exercised. Except as provided in clause (b) of this
Section 1, in case of a purchase of less than all the shares which may be
purchased under this Warrant, the Company shall cancel this Warrant and
execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants of like tenor for the balance
of the shares purchasable under the Warrant surrendered upon such purchase to
the Holder hereof within a reasonable time. Each stockcertificate so
delivered shall be in such denominations of Preferred Stock as may be
requested by the Holder hereof and shall be registered in the name of such
Holder or such other name as shall be designated by such Holder, subject to
the limitations contained in Section 2.
(b) The Holder, in lieu of exercising this Warrant by the payment
of the Stock Purchase Price pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 1, may
elect, at any time on or before the Expiration Date, to receive that number
of shares of Preferred Stock equal to the quotient of: (i) the difference
between (A) the Per Share Price (as hereinafter defined) of the Preferred
Stock, less (B) the Stock Purchase Price then in effect, multiplied by the
number of shares of Preferred Stock the Holder would otherwise have been
entitled to purchase hereunder pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 1 (or
such lesser number of shares as the Holder may designate in the case of a
partial exercise of this Warrant); over (ii) the Per Share Price.
2
(c) For purposes of clause (b) of this Section 1, "Per Share Price"
means the product of: (i) the greater of (A) the average of the closing bid
and asked prices of the Company's Common Stock as quoted by NASDAQ or listed
on any exchange, whichever is applicable, as published in the Western Edition
of The Wall Street Journal for the ten (10) trading days prior to the date of
the Holder's election hereunder or, (B) if applicable at the time of or in
connection with the exercise under clause (b) of this Section 1, the gross
sales price of one share of the Company's Common Stock pursuant to a
registered public offering or that amount which shareholders of the Company
will receive for each share of Common Stock pursuant to a merger,
reorganization or sale of assets; and (ii) that number of shares of Common
Stock into which each share of Preferred Stock is convertible. If the
Company's Common Stock is not quoted by NASDAQ or listed on an exchange, the
Per Share Price of the Preferred Stock (or the equivalent number of shares of
Common Stock into which such Preferred Stock is convertible) shall be the
price per share which the Company would obtain from a willing buyer for
shares sold by the Company from authorized but unissued shares as such price
shall be agreed upon by the Holder and the Company or, if agreement cannot be
reached within ten (10) business days of the Holder's election hereunder, as
such price shall be determined by a panel of three (3) appraisers, one (1) to
be chosen by the Company, one (1) to be chosen by the Holder and the third to
be chosen by the first two (2) appraisers. If the appraisers cannot reach
agreement within 30 days of the Holder's election hereunder, then each
appraiser shall deliver its appraisal and the appraisal which is neither the
highest nor the lowest shall constitute the Per Share Price. In the event
either party fails to choose an appraiser within 30 days of the Holder's
election hereunder, then the appraisal of the sole appraiser shall constitute
the Per Share Price. Each pary shall bear the cost of the appraiser selected
by such party and the cost of the third appraiser shall be borne one-half by
each party. In the event either party fails to choose an appraiser, the cost
of the sole appraiser shall be borne one-half by each party.
2. LIMITATION ON TRANSFER.
(a) The Warrant and the Preferred Stock shall not be transferable
except upon the conditions specified in this Section 2, which conditions are
intended to insure compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act. Each
holder of this Warrant or the Preferred Stock issuable hereunder will cause
any proposed transferee of the Warrant or Preferred Stock to agree to take
and hold such securities subject to the provisions and upon the conditions
specified in this Section 2.
3
(b) Each certificate representing (i) this Warrant, (ii) the
Preferred Stock, (iii) shares of the Company's Common Stock issued upon
conversion of the Preferred Stock and (iv) any other securities issued in
respect of the Preferred Stock or Common Stock issued upon conversion of the
Preferred Stock upon any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization,
merger, consolidation or similar event, shall (unless otherwise permitted by
the provisions of this Section 2 or unless such securities have been
registered under the Securities Act or sold under Rule 144) be stamped or
otherwise imprinted with a legend substantially in the following form (in
addition to any legend required under applicable state securities laws):
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED
FOR INVESTMENT AND HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES
ACT OF 1933 OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. SUCH SECURITIES MAY NOT
BE SOLD OR TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN
EXEMPTION THEREFROM UNDER SAID ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE
SECURITIES LAWS.
(c) The Holder of this Warrant and each person to whom this Warrant
is subsequently transferred represents and warrants to the Company (by
acceptance of such transfer) that it will not transfer the Warrant (or
securities issuable upon exercise hereof unless a registration statement
under the Securities Act was in effect with respect to such securities at the
time of issuance thereof) except pursuant to (i) an effective registration
statement under the Securities Act, (ii) Rule 144 under the Securities Act
(or any other rule under the Securities Act relating to the disposition of
securities), or (iii) an opinion of counsel, reasonably satisfactory to
counsel for the Company, that an exemption from such registration is
available.
(d) This Warrant will be wholly void and of no effect after the date
(the "Expiration Date") which is the earlier of (i) 5:00 p.m. (Pacific time)
December 31, 2002, or (ii) the effective time of a merger or reorganization
following which stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such
transaction own less than fifty percent (50%) of the equity securities of the
surviving corporation (or its parent, if any), so long as the surviving
entity is publicly traded and all securities in the surviving entity held by
the Company's shareholders are free of trading restrictions within 30 days of
the effective time of such transaction, and if the last day on which this
Warrant may be exercised is a Sunday or a legal holiday or a day on which
banking institutions doing business in the City of San Francisco are
authorized by law to close, this Warrant may be exercised prior to 5:00 p.m.
(Pacific time) on the next succeeding full business day with the same force
and effect as if exercised on such last day specified herein.
4
3. SHARES TO BE FULLY PAID; RESERVATION OF SHARES. The Company
covenants and agrees that all shares of Preferred Stock which may be issued
upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon
issuance, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable
and free from all preemptive rights of any shareholder and free of all taxes,
liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof. The Company further
covenants and agrees that during the period within which the rights
represented by this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will at all times
have authorized and reserved, for the purpose of issue or transfer upon
exercise of the subscription rights evidenced by this Warrant, a sufficient
number of shares of authorized but unissued Preferred Stock, or other
securities and property, when and as required to provide for the exercise of
the rights represented by this Warrant. The Company will take all such action
as may be necessary to assure that such shares of Preferred Stock may be
issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or
regulation, or of any requirements of any domestic securities exchange upon
which the Preferred Stock may be listed. The Company will not take any action
which would result in any adjustment of the Stock Purchase Price (as defined
in Section 4 hereof) (i) if the total number of shares of Preferred Stock
issuable after such action upon exercise of all outstanding warrants,
together with all shares of Preferred Stock then outstanding and all shares
of Preferred Stock then issuable upon exercise of all options and upon the
conversion of all convertible securities then outstanding, would exceed the
total number of shares of Preferred Stock then authorized by the Company's
Articles of Incorporation, or (ii) if the total number of shares of Common
Stock issuable after such action upon the conversion of all such shares of
Preferred Stock together with all shares of Common Stock then outstanding and
then issuable upon exercise of all options and upon the conversion of all
convertible securities hen outstanding would exceed the total number of
shares of Common Stock then authorized by the Company's Articles of
Incorporation.
4. ADJUSTMENT OF STOCK PURCHASE PRICE NUMBER OF SHARES. The Stock
Purchase Price and the number of shares purchasable upon the exercise of this
Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence
of certain events described in this Section 4. Upon each adjustment of the
Stock Purchase Price, the Holder of this Warrant shall thereafter be entitled
to purchase, at the Stock Purchase Price resulting from such adjustment, the
number of shares obtained by multiplying the Stock Purchase Price in effect
immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of shares purchasable
pursuant hereto immediately prior to such adjustment, and dividing the
product thereof by the Stock Purchase Price resulting from such adjustment.
5
4.1 SUBDIVISION OR COMBINATION OF STOCK. In case the Company shall at
any time subdivide or combine its outstanding shares of Preferred Stock the

the Company's articles of Incorporation for holders of Series B1 preferred
stock.

Warrant) shall have received or become entitled to receive, without payment
therefor,

whether or not such securities are at any time directly or indirectly
convertible into or exchangeable for Preferred Stock, or any rights or
options to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any of the foregoing
by way of dividend or other distribution, or
(b) any cash paid or payable otherwise than as a cash dividend, or
(c) Preferred Stock or other or additional stock or other

reclassification, combination of shares or similar corporate rearrangement,
(other than shares of Preferred Stock issued as a stock split, adjustments in
respect of which shall be covered by the terms of Section 4.1 above), then
and in each such case, the Holder hereof shall, upon the exercise of this
Warrant, be entitled to receive, in addition to the number of shares of
Preferred Stock receivable thereupon, and without payment of any additional
consideration therefore, the amount of stock and other securities and
property (including cash in the cases referred to in clauses (b) and (c)

effected in such a way that holders of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to
receive stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for
Preferred Stock, then, as a condition of such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger or sale, lawful and
6
adequate provisions shall be made whereby the holder hereof shall thereafter
have the right to purchase and receive(in lieu of the shares of the Preferred
Stock of the Company immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon
the exercise of the rights represented hereby) such shares of stock,
securities or assets as may be issued or payable with respect to or in
exchange for a number of outstanding shares of such Preferred Stock equal to
the number of shares of such stock immediately theretofore purchasable and
receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented hereby. Except after

parent, if any), so long as the surviving entity is publicly traded and all
securities in the surviving entity held by the Company's shareholders are
free of trading restrictions within 30 days of the effective time of such

sale unless, prior to the consummation thereof, the successor corporation (if
other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or the corporation
purchasing such assets shall assume by written instrument, executed and
mailed or delivered to the registered Holder hereof at the last address of
such Holder appearing on the books of the Company, the obligation to deliver
to such Holder such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance
with the foregoing provisions, such Holder may be entitled to purchase. In
any such case, appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights
and interests of the holder of this Warrant to the end that the provisions
hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for adjustments of the

thereafter deliverable upon the exercise hereof.

securities convertible into or exercisable for Common Stock, for a
consideration per share less than the Stock Purchase Price in effect
immediately prior to the time of such issue or sale, the Stock Purchase Price
then in effect and then applicable for any subsequent period or periods shall
be adjusted as described in Article III(B) 3(d) of the Company's articles of

Warrant at the address of such holder as shown on the books of the Company.

dividends or interest shall be payable or accrued in respect of this Warrant
or the interest represented hereby or the shares purchasable hereunder until,
and only to the extent that, this Warrant shall have been exercised. No
provisions hereof, in the absence of affirmative action by the holder to
purchase shares of Preferred Stock, and no mere enumeration herein of the

creditors.
