1. Definition of Shares. As used in this Agreement, "Shares" shall
mean and include all shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred
Stock, Series C Preferred Stock and Common Stock now owned or hereafter acquired
by the Stockholders.
2. Board of Directors
2.1 Size of Board of Directors. Each Stockholder agrees that it will,
at each meeting of the Company's stockholders held for the purpose of electing
the Board of Directors and at each other taking of action by the stockholders
for such purpose, vote all of its Shares to fix the size of the Company's Board
of Directors at not less than three (3) nor more than five (5) members to be
comprised as set forth in this Agreement.
2.2 Designation of Nominees. The Board of Directors following the
execution and delivery of this Agreement shall be comprised of five (5) members
as follows: (A) so long as 50% of the Shares held by Matrix Partners III, L.P.
("Matrix"), Sigma Partners II, L.P. ("Sigma"), Sigma Associates II, L.P. and
Atlas Venture Fund II, L.P. (collectively the "Original Investors") on the date
hereof remain outstanding, the Original Investors (acting by a majority in
interest) shall have the right to designate two nominees for election as
Directors; provided, that: (i) so long as Matrix shall hold in the aggregate at
least 50% of the Shares held by it on the date hereof, Matrix shall have the
right to designate one (1) nominee for election as a Director; and (ii) so long
as Sigma shall hold in the aggregate at least 50% of the Shares held by it on
the date hereof, Sigma shall have the right to designate one (1) nominee for
election as a Director; (B) so long as the Management Stockholders shall hold in
the aggregate at least 50% of the Shares held by them on the date hereof, the
Management Stockholders (acting by a majority in interest) shall have the right
to designate one (1) nominee for election as a Director; (C) the Chief Executive
Officer of the Company shall have the right to designate one (1) nominee for
election as a Director; and (D) Matrix, Sigma, Atlas Venture Fund II, L.P.
("Atlas"), New Enterprise Associates VI, Limited Partnership ("NEA") and
Fidelity Ventures Limited ("Fidelity") (acting by a majority in interest) shall
have the right to designate one (1) nominee for election as a Director, which
nominee shall not be an affiliate (as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2
promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) of any Investor and shall
not be an employee of the Company. As of the date hereof, the respective
nominees of the Stockholders shall be as follows: Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx (as the

to any meeting (or written action in lieu of a meeting) of stockholders of the
Company at or by which Directors are to be elected by the holders of Common
Stock, the Management Stockholders and each Investor entitled to designate one
or more Directors shall notify the others in writing of its nominee. In the
absence of any such notification, it shall be presumed that its then incumbent
representative (if any) has been redesignated.

2.3 Election of Directors. At any and all meetings (including any
written action in lieu of a meeting) of stockholders of the Company at which
Directors are to be elected, each Stockholder shall vote all of its Shares to
elect, as Directors of the Company, the respective representatives designated in
the manner provided in Section 2.2.
2.4 Vacancies. In the event the representative of any Stockholder or
the Chief Executive Officer shall cease to serve as a Director of the Company
for any reason, the person or entity who initially designated such
representative as a nominee for election to the Board of Directors of the
Company shall have the right to designate a successor representative (provided
that the person or entity designating such representative, continues to hold the
requisite percentage of its Shares so as to entitle them or it to designate a
representative pursuant to Section 2.2). The Stockholders shall vote all of
their Shares and otherwise use their best efforts to ensure that the successor
representative of any Stockholder or the Chief Executive Officer, as the case
may be, is duly appointed or elected to the Board of Directors.
2.5 Observer Rights. In addition to any representatives of the
Investors who serve as Directors of the Company, one representative of each of
Atlas and Fidelity shall be entitled to attend and observe all meetings of the
Company's Board of Directors in a non-voting observer capacity and shall be
entitled to receive at least 14 days notice of all such meetings, whenever
possible, and to receive information furnished by the Company to its Directors
as such and copies of the minutes of all meetings, so long as Atlas or Fidelity,
as the case may be, shall hold at least 50% of the Shares held by it on the date
hereof. One representative of NEA shall be entitled to attend and observe all
meetings of the Company's Board of Directors in the manner provided in the
letter dated July 29, 1994 executed by the Company in favor of NEA.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3 or the
letter with NEA, none of Atlas, Fidelity or NEA will be entitled to attend and
observe meetings of the Company's Board or to receive the information or minutes
furnished to the Directors in connection therewith if the Board determines that
a competitive conflict would exist by affording such Stockholder such rights, in
which event such rights will be limited so as to avoid the competitive conflict.
3. Term. This Agreement shall terminate (a) immediately prior to the
consummation of the first firm commitment underwritten public offering of Common
Stock pursuant to an effective registration statement on Form S-1 (or its then
equivalent) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or (b) on the tenth
anniversary of the date of this Agreement, whichever occurs first.
4. Specific Enforcement. Each Stockholder expressly agrees that the
other Stockholders and the Company will be irreparably damaged if this Agreement
is not specifically enforced. Upon a breach or threatened breach of the terms,
covenants and/or conditions of this Agreement by a Stockholder, the other
Stockholders and the Company, shall, in addition to all other remedies, each be
entitled to a temporary or permanent injunction, without showing any actual
damage, and/or a decree for specific performance, in accordance with the
provisions hereof.

terms and conditions of a certain Stockholders Agreement dated

6. Notices. Notices given hereunder shall be deemed to have been duly

7. Entire Agreement and Amendments. This Agreement amends and
restates in its entirety the Prior Agreement and supersedes the Prior Agreement.
This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of the parties with respect to
the subject matter hereof and neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof
may be waived, modified, amended or terminated except by a written agreement
signed by the parties hereto; provided, however, that Investors owning at least
a majority of the Shares owned by all Investors may effect any such waiver,
modification, amendment or termination on behalf of all the Investors and,
provided, further, that Management Stockholders owning at least a majority of
the Shares owned by all Management Stockholders may effect any such waiver,
modification, amendment or termination on behalf of all the Management
Stockholders. This Agreement is the sole agreement to which the Management
Stockholders are parties regarding the subject matter hereof and supersedes any
prior agreements between the Management Stockholders and the Company as to such
subject matter.
8. Governing Law; Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be
governed by the laws of the State of Delaware and shall bind and inure to the
benefit of the heirs, personal representatives, executors, administrators,
successors and assigns of the parties. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, all covenants and agreements benefiting the Investors shall bind and
inure to the benefit of any and all subsequent holders from time to time of the
Shares, except to the extent otherwise provided in this Agreement.
9. Waivers. No waiver of any breach or default hereunder shall be
considered valid unless in writing, and no such waiver shall be deemed a waiver
of any subsequent breach or default of the same or similar nature.
10. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held to
be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such illegality, invalidity or
unenforceability shall attach only to such provision and shall not in any manner
affect or render illegal, invalid or unenforceable any other provision of this
Agreement, and this Agreement shall be carried out as if any such illegal,
invalid or unenforceable provision were not contained herein.
